Lord Jesus - you come to us in humility.
Christ Jesus - you blessed those who are poor and humble in spirit.
Lord Jesus - you proclaim the Good News of God’s kingdom to the world.
Priest: Let us pray for the whole Church of God in Christ Jesus, and for all people according to their needs:
1. For those who hold power in the world. May the Lord lead them to act with humility, generosity, and compassion, especially for those most in need. We pray to the Lord.
2. May our governmental leaders work toward understanding and peace amongst the nations. We pray to the Lord.
3. That the Lord guide the Church throughout the world by the Holy Spirit, leading all Christians to the way of truth. We pray to the Lord.
4. For those in need. For those who are sick or afflicted. For those who care for the sick. May the Lord comfort and relieve them in their need. We pray to the Lord.
5. For those who are suffering in different ways in life. May the Lord bring them out of their troubles. We pray to the Lord.
6. For the faithful departed. For those who have died in the peace of Christ. May they come at last to share with us in God’s eternal kingdom. We pray to the Lord.
7. For all of us on pilgrimage during the jubilee year of hope. May we be open to the way God speaks to us through those pilgrimage experience. We pray to the Lord.
8. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our hearts today. We pray to the Lord.
Priest: Almighty God, to whom our needs are known to you before we ask. Help us ask only what is in according with your will. Grant us our prayers for the sake of your son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. Amen.
