Lord Jesus - you call us to give thanks for our life of faith.
Christ Jesus - you call us to a life of service.
Lord Jesus - you call us to holiness.
Priest: We now bring our prayers to God in trust and hope, as God is the true source of mercy and compassion:
1. For all Christians, that we may continue our Lenten journey in faith and holiness.
2. That we may have obedience to God’s will, even when God’s will challenges us and when his will is difficult to follow.
3. For unity and collaboration amongst all Christians.
4. For those who hunger and thirst in a physical sense. For those who hunger and thirst for justice and righteousness.
5. For the people in need in the Diocese of Jackson, particularly the sick, those looking for work, those feeling lost in life, and those battling addictions and mental health issues.
6. For all who have gone before us in faith, for their entry into eternal life.
7. For those places in the world in the midst of war or conflict. For safety, courage, and protection.
8. For healing for the sick and shut-in in body, mind, and spirit.
9. For the prayers we hold in our hearts today.
Priest: God of mercy and compassion, you give new heart to your people: Hear the prayers we make in faith, through Jesus Christ our Lord forever and ever. Amen.
