Priest - penitential rite
Lord Jesus - you are the holy one of God.
Christ Jesus - you are the Lord of justice.
Lord Jesus - you are the way that leads us to salvation.
Priest: We now turn to the Lord with our needs, the needs of the Church, and the needs of our neighbors:
1. That we in the Church may take the time and make the effort to listen to God in the different ways he speaks to us, spending time with God in prayer and in worship. We pray to the Lord.
2. That the nations of the world may work toward peace and reconciliation. We pray for peace in the Middle East, in Ukraine, and in those communities and cities overtaken by crime and violence. We pray to the Lord.
3. We pray that through works of charity and outreach that we may bring hope to the world in this jubilee year of hope. We pray to the Lord.
4. For our farmers and gardeners. For a bountiful harvest from their labors. We pray for our garden program here at CMCF. We pray to the Lord.
5. That all of us as disciples of Christ may go out into the world and invite others to be a part of our faith. We pray to the Lord.
6. That we may always a community of welcome and hospitality. We pray to the Lord.
7. For those who are adversely affected by the summer’s heat and natural disasters. We pray for the lives lost in the flooding in Texas and for those trying to recover. We pray to the Lord.
8. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our hearts. For our prayer intentions spoken and unspoken. We pray to the Lord.
Priest: Heavenly Father, we pray that we may always find a home in you. We ask that you grant the prayers we make today through your son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
