Lord Jesus - you bring us the joy of your presence.
Christ Jesus - you have compassion for your people.
Lord Jesus - you help us cultivate the seeds of faith.
Priest: We are called to take our place at the feast in God’s kingdom. With confidence in his love for us, let us open our hearts to God in our prayers today:
1. That bishops, pastors, and other Church leaders may lead their people in faith and serve them with love the flock. We pray to the Lord.
2. That all the peoples of the world work toward an end of war, terrorism, and violence. We pray to the Lord.
3. For the hungry, the homeless, the prisoner, and those suffering from addictions and mental health issues. For wholeness and strength. We pray to the Lord.
4. For healing for the sick and the afflicted. We pray to the Lord.
5. That the Lord continue to accompany our children, youth, and college students through their studies and activities this semester. We pray to the Lord.
6. That God may touch our hearts throughout our experiences in everyday life. We pray to the Lord.
7. For the faithful departed in Christ, that those who have gone before us in the faith may take their places at the feast in God’s kingdom. We pray to the Lord.
8. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our hearts. We pray to the Lord.
Priest: Almighty and eternal God, maker of all things in heaven and earth. Mercifully accept the prayers we make through Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. Amen.
