Prayers of the Faithful for March 6 & 7, 2021
Presider: God reveals to us the paths of righteousness. With confident hearts, we bring to God our prayers.
Reader:
- For the Church: that we may grow in awareness of our dignity as temples of the Holy Spirit, we pray:
- For the grace of renewal: that God’s covenant with us will move our hearts to a deeper relationship with God and greater service to our neighbors, we pray:
- For a spirit of integrity: that we recognize ourselves as servants of God, honoring God’s name by our words and deeds, and never attempting to use God for our benefit, we pray:
- For a deeper appreciation of the commandments: that we may allow the wisdom and vision of the commandments given to Moses, to form our conscience and guide our decisions, we pray:
- For a cleansing of the temple of our hearts: that God will free us from all that enslaves us and help us to offer our self-sacrificing service to God and others, we pray:
- For those who are ill and are suffering: may they find hope and healing, including, Carol Sterner, we pray:
- For those who have died: may they find rest in the arms of God, we pray:
Presider: Faithful God, you show us the path of true wisdom. Hear the prayers, spoken and unspoken, that we ask in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
