Lord Jesus - you bring us the hope of God.
Christ Jesus - you forgive the sins of the contrite.
Lord Jesus - you lead us to God’s kingdom.
Priest: Let us turn to our loving God as we offer our prayers and our needs:
1. For all who lead us in faith and service, especially Leo XIV, our pope, and Joseph Kopacz, our bishop. May they teach us to acknowledge Christ in the everyday moments of our lives.
2. For an end to war, violence, and hatred. May we acknowledge the peace of Christ in our lives and offer such peace to others.
3. For people burdened by sin and doubt. May we live with the joy of the Father’s love
4. For our families and those who care for our needs. May our lives be supported in God’s loving embrace. May we embrace God’s hope in our lives.
5. For a greater love for the Eucharist in our lives.
6. For all who grieve the past. May we be led to openness and joy.
7. For our loved ones and family members who have died. May all the dead now rest in the assurance of God’s peace.
8. For the people of Canada who are celebrating their national holiday today.
9. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our hearts.
Priest: God of Providence, we ask you to listen to needs of our hearts. We ask this through Christ, our Lord forever and ever. Amen.
