Prayers of the Faithful March 4 & 5, 2023
Presider:
As we seek to live the Gospel let us now pray for the needs of the whole world.
Reader:
- For the Church: that we may be transfigured more and more into the image and
likeness of Christ, we pray:
- For the grace to listen: that we may hear the voice of Christ in prayer, in events,
and in relationships so that we may respond more fully to God’s invitation, we
pray:
- For all who are facing crisis or loss in their lives: that they may experience the
transforming grace of God and grow in their trust of God to bring forth a new
beginning and abundant life, we pray:
- For all the descendants of Abraham: that Jews, Muslims, and Christians will
honor all that we share in common and work together to overcome all evil in our
world, we pray:
- For our brothers and sisters in Gris-Gris: that we may be filled with care and
compassion and respond with generous hearts, open hands, and a renewed
sense of solidarity with all the families and children, we pray:
- For those who are ill and have asked for our prayers including, Duane Caspers,
Emmett Linn and Maureen Guion. May they find comfort in God’s love and from the care of their family and friends, we pray:
- For those who have died, especially Betsy Graca; that all who have died find joy in the resurrection…we pray:
Presider:
Loving God, your divine Son shines with the radiance of your glory. Hear our
prayers that one day we might share fully in that same glory. We ask this
through Christ our Lord. Amen.
