Lord Jesus - You are our Good Shepherd.
Christ Jesus - You are the the gate through which we enter salvation.
Lord Jesus - You look for the lost sheep.
Priest: With faith and hope today, we present our prayers through Jesus, our Good Shepherd:
1. For Pope Leo XIV, Bishop Kopacz, and all our Church leaders. May they form and nurture their flock with the love and compassion of the Good Shepherd. We pray to the Lord.
2. For vocations in our Church to the priesthood, the diaconate, consecrated religious life, and lay ministry. We pray to the Lord.
3. For our children and for all students. For a good end to the school year for them. We pray to the Lord.
4. That we may reach out to the poor, the vulnerable, and the suffering through works of mercy. We pray to the Lord.
5. That our civil leaders may always promote a culture of spirituality. For the freedom to practice our religion. We pray to the Lord.
6. For our deceased loved ones and family members. That they achieve eternal union with God. We pray to the Lord.
7. For peace throughout the world, especially in Ukraine and the Middle East. For the safety of the men and women in the military. We pray to the Lord.
8. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our hearts today. We pray to the Lord.
Priest: We ask these prayers through Jesus Christ, our Good Shepherd. He does not neglect his flock in their need. He is our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
