We pray for our faith community. May all we do in our daily lives be done for the glory of God.
We pray for the sick and for all who have asked for our prayers.
We pray for those who have died recently and for all whose anniversaries occur at this time. May they enjoy the eternal fulfilment of the kingdom of God.
God, our refuge and our hope, in you our hearts are glad and our souls rejoice. Hear our prayers for the fullness of joy for all who have not yet found it. We ask this in Jesus’ name.
St Paul urges us to use our freedom in Christ to serve one another through Love. Guided by Spirit, we ask God to hear our prayer for all who are not yet free from oppression, sickness or sin.
We pray for Pope Francis and all Church leaders. May their sensitivity and compassion encourage all Christians ‘to keep their hand on the plough’ in their witness to promote the kingdom of God among us.
