Confident of God’s unconditional love, we pray for our own needs, those of the Church, and those of the whole world.
  • For our Bishops, Presbyters, and Deacons, that they show us the way to do by word and example, let us pray to the Lord: 
  • For our newly elected Holy Father, Pope Leo XIV, that the Holy Spirit may fill him with wisdom and discernment as he begins his pontificate and shepherds the universal Church, let us pray to the Lord. 
  • For the leaders and citizens of the world’s nations, that they make care for the earth a priority, let us pray to the Lord: 
  • For persecuted Christians everywhere, that they persevere in the faith, let us pray to the Lord: 
  • For those newly baptized or received into the Church, that their radiant joy draws others to new life, let us pray to the Lord: 
  • For our parish and diocese, that every heart be filled with the joy of the risen Christ, let us pray to the Lord:
Eternal and almighty God, you have loved us without limit. Listen to our prayer, through Jesus Christ our Lord,  Amen.
