Lord Jesus - you proclaim your Good news.
Christ Jesus - you bring us your father’s love.
Lord Jesus - you are the beloved son.
Priest: We present our prayers this evening to our good and forgiving God:
1. That we as a Church may feel the mystery of God at work within us.
2. That the work and worship of our Diocese and our parish communities reflect the love and compassion of God.
3. For all who serve in national, state, and local governments. May they carry out their responsibilities with wisdom and selflessness.
4. For medical and scientific researchers. Through their study, may humankind may discover anew the sacredness of all of God’s creation.
5. For the sick and the suffering. May the Lord of new life lead them to wholeness and healing.
6. For our first responders, our veterans, and the men and women of the military.
7. For our deacon candidates who are preparing for ordination later this month. For the deacons currently serving in our Diocese.
8. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our hearts today.
Priest: We ask our prayers today through God the eternal Father, through Christ his son, and through the Holy Spirit, forever and ever. AMEN.
