Lord Jesus - you were born of the Virgin Mary.
Christ Jesus - you are the beloved son of the Father.
Lord Jesus - you proclaim God’s Good News.
PRIEST: Through the faithful obedience of the holy Virgin Mary, God takes flesh among us. The mystery of the Incarnation calls us to pray through the incarnate Son to our loving Father.
1. That we in the Church may be seen as extending the Incarnation as the body of Jesus Christ here on earth.
2. That all people of goodwill may learn that Christ has united himself to every person in taking our human nature.
3. That we may all follow the Gospel of Life through our words and actions. For the conversion of hearts, that all of us may honor the sanctity of human life.
4. For Christians suffering persecution throughout the world.
5. We pray for peace in the world, especially in Ukraine and in the Middle East.
6. That mothers carrying children in the womb will welcome the new life as Mary welcomed the birth of her Son.
7. For the sick and afflicted. For healing in body, mind, and spirit.
8. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our hearts.
PRIEST: Father of the Incarnate Word, we bring our intentions before you in the reality of our daily lives, made holy by your Son, who lives and reigns for ever and ever. Amen.
