Prayers of the Faithful October 23 & 24, 2021
Presider:
God hears the prayers of those who cry in faith for their needs. With courage we make our needs known.
Lector:
- For the Church: that we may passionately and continuously call out to Christ for our needs and courageously follow Jesus on the way of life, we pray:
- For all who are searching for God: that their eyes and hearts may be opened to the many manifestations of God’s love for them, we pray:
- For all who are blinded by prejudice: that God will enlighten their hearts and help them recognize the value and dignity of each person, we pray:
- For all those who are traveling during this MEA break, that God will grant then safe passage, we pray:
- For world leaders: that their gathering on climate change will outline new paths for protecting the earth for future generations, we pray:
- For those who are ill and have asked for our prayers, including Tom Diger, Caron Entenman, David Osterkamp, and Pattie Edel. May all who suffer be healed by God’s loving touch and by the prayers of this community, we pray:
Presider:
Gracious God, you hear the prayers of those who cry out to you: in our need may we have confidence that our prayers are heard and answered. We pray through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
