Lord Jesus - You are the glory of the Father.
Christ Jesus - You give us hope in the midst of our challenges.
Lord Jesus - You give us strength and courage on our journey.
Priest: We present our prayers to our merciful Father in hope and trust on this Friday of the Octave of Easter:
1.That we in the Church may be faithful to our Savior and proclaim the joy of his Resurrection to the world.
2. We pray for our parish family, that renewed through the Easter mysteries, we live in service for God and for his people.
3. For all those who have been initiated in the Church at the Easter Vigil Mass. For our children preparing for first holy Eucharist. For the youth receiving confirmation this past Wednesday evening. That they may feel our love and prayers reaching out to them.
4. For all who are struggling in their faith right now. That Christ, risen from the dead, may call their name and lead them back to the faith.
5. We pray for all those who have suffered tragedies. For the sick in the hospital, hospice, and nursing home. That Christ’s presence in their lives may give them encouragement.
6. For peace in the world, especially in the Middle East and Ukraine. For the safety of the men and women in the military.
7. For our family members and loved ones who have died. That Christ shatter the chains of death and bring them to the heavenly banquet.
8. For the prayers we hold in our hearts today. We pray to the Lord.
Priest: On this Friday in the Octave of Easter, we present these prayer to you heavenly Father, through your son, Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
