With the Lord, there is mercy. In that confidence, we bring our petitions to God.
  • That the one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church continue to proclaim the value of human life, let us pray to the Lord: 
  • That the nations of the world know the love and peace of Jesus, who wept for Lazarus, let us pray to the Lord: 
  • That those preparing for the Easter sacraments learn to die to self like Jesus in order to rise like Lazarus, let us pray to the Lord: 
  • That the sick be healed, the dying be comforted, and their caregivers be renewed in spirit, let us pray to the Lord: 
  • That those who gather around this table reach out with love to those who grieve, let us pray to the Lord:
Loving God, you raised your Son from the dead. Hear our petitions and raise us to new life. We ask this through the same Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.
