Lord Jesus - you proclaim the values of God’s kingdom.
Christ Jesus - you call us to listen to God’s prophets in the world.
Lord Jesus - you hear the cry of the poor.
Priest: Loving Father, as we gather here before you at Mass today, we ask that you will hear our prayers and draw us closer to you:
1. We pray for Pope Leo XIV, Bishop Kopacz, and the leaders of our Church. May they show our Church to be a place of welcome for all. We hope all find us to be a welcoming place at the Catholic community of St Michael the Archangel. We pray to the Lord.
2. We pray for our world leaders. May they work together for the good of humanity. We pray to the Lord.
3. As we gather to celebrate the Eucharist today, we pray that we will seek to proclaim God’s word and more fully do God’s will. We pray to the Lord.
4. We pray our children and for our families, that the Lord will watch over them in their summer activities and summer travels. We pray to the Lord.
5. We pray for the sick and the afflicted. For all who care for the sick and for our medical professionals. For the men going through the BMU program. For the men in the infirmary. We pray to the Lord.
6. For our first responders. For the men and women serving in the military. For our veterans. We pray to the Lord.
7. For our gardeners and our farmers. For good weather for them. For a bountiful harvest. For those who struggle to put food on their table. We pray to the Lord.
8. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our hearts today. We pray to the Lord.
Priest: Almighty God, you have called us to be children of light in a world of darkness. We ask that you hear our prayers, which come to you through Jesus, your Son, our Lord forever and ever. Amen.
