Lord Jesus - you are a light in the world - Lord have mercy.
Christ Jesus - you call us to justice - Christ have mercy.
Lord Jesus - you call us to serve our neighbor - Lord have mercy.
Priest: We now bring our prayers to the God of justice and mercy:
1. That Christians everywhere will work together for justice, unity and reconciliation this season of Advent.
2. That our governmental leaders may lead and guide their people in wisdom and courage.
3. For our first responders, for the men and women in the military, for our veterans, and for all who protect us and keep us safe in society.
4. For our children, youth, and college students, that their work, studies, rest, and play may always serve God’s glory.
5. For the sick and the afflicted of our community. For healing and wholeness. For their caregivers and their families.
6. For the repose of the souls of the faithful departed. For their entry into eternal life. For the souls in purgatory.
7 . For the prayer intentions that we hold in the silence of our hearts. For those who have asked for our prayers.
Priest: With humble hearts, we present these prayers to you through your son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
