For our sisters and brothers in Gris-Gris, may God bless them and Fr. Fayant as he continues his ministry at St. Rose of Lima, we pray:

For all who serve the poor and marginalized: that God will strengthen them as they show love and compassion and that they may find Christ in all whom they serve, we pray:

For the ability to commit fully to our calling to discipleship, we pray:

For the ability to forego things we do not need and use our money wisely, we pray:

For those who are ill and have asked for our prayers including, Charlotte Moran. May God’s healing love touch them and restore them to fullness of life, we pray:

God who knows our hearts, you call us to remember the needs of the poor at all times. Make us wise and prudent so that we can be faithful to our commitment to follow Jesus. We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
