Lord Jesus - you call us to faithfulness.
Christ Jesus - you ask us to accompany you on your journey to the cross.
Lord Jesus - you call us to have hope in the midst of our struggles.
PRIEST: With faith and trust, we present our prayers to our God of love and mercy:
1. We pray for the grace to have a greater love for our families, for the Church, for our neighbor, and for our community.
2. We pray for all of our parishes in the Diocese of Jackson, that we may bear much fruit and may nurture all who seek the wonder and peace of God’s love.
3. We pray for peace in our world and for the victims of war and violence.
4. We pray that all of us may dedicate time for prayer and reflection during this holy days of Lent.
5. For a greater love and appreciation for the gift of the Eucharist.
6. We pray for the sick and the afflicted. For those in the hospital, hospice, or nursing home.
7. For all our children, youth, and college students. That the Lord will continue to accompany them in their studies and in their activities.
8. For the prayers we hold in our hearts today.
PRIEST: We ask, O Lord, that you hear the prayers we offer in your name today and show us the way to live our lives as you desire with love and kindness. We make these prayers through Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. Amen.
