Lord Jesus - you hear the cry of the poor.
Christ Jesus - you bring us God’s justice.
Lord Jesus - you proclaim God’s kingdom.
Priest: United with the prayers of Mother Cabrini and the entire community of saints, we present our prayers to our heavenly Father:
1. For Pope Leo XIV and our Church leaders. That they would lead the Church in finding ways to reach out to the poor and to those separated from the Church.
2. That we would use our gifts and talents for the glory of God.
3. That God would heal the divisions that exist in society, uniting us to work for the common good.
4. For all who suffer in despair. For the unemployed and the homeless. For children orphaned by war, terrorism or disease. For people dying of hunger or untreated illness.
5. For a lasting peace. That God would inspire efforts of diplomacy to end human bloodshed, terrorism and destruction.
6. For the names enrolled in our book of remembrance. We pray for all the faithful departed during this month of remembrance.
7. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our hearts today.
Priest: With faith and hope, we present our prayers through your son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
