Priest: Penitential Rite:
Lord Jesus - you heal the sins and divisions in our lives.
Christ Jesus - you redeem us and restore us to holiness.
Lord Jesus - you show compassion to those who place their trust in you.
Priest: The Lord is kind and merciful. Let us have the confidence to offer our prayers to the Lord, knowing that we will be heard.
1. That we in the worldwide Church we may be a model of mercy and understanding, reaching out to others in the world. We pray to the Lord.
2. That nations in conflict may reconcile their differences and find ways to overcome their divisions. We pray to the Lord.
3. We pray for our veterans, the men and women serving in the military, our first responders, and our medical professions. In thanksgiving for the ways they protect us and keep us safe. We pray to the Lord.
4. In this Jubilee Year, we are called to be pilgrims of hope. May we sow seeds of forgiveness and work to resolve conflicts. We pray to the Lord.
5. For the growth of faith in our lives. That the dying and rising of Christ be our foundation, inspiring our words, deeds, and desires. We pray to the Lord.
6. For all those men who volunteer for our Catholic community of St Michael the Archangel. For those volunteers and benefactors who help our community in many different ways. We pray to the Lord.
7. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our hearts. For all our intentions spoken and unspoken. We pray to the Lord.
Priest: Generous God, grant us the good things we present to you in our prayers. Bless us with the resolve to imitate your generosity. We ask this through your son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
