Prayers of the Faithful

Let us pray to gain Christ Jesus and be found in him. May we consider all else as loss, and may our sufferings be conformed to his death so to seek his radiant face.

We pray to the Lord.

Let us not cast stones of blame toward one another, but to lay them down at the feet of our Savior. May our wicked opinions of others be wiped away in the sands of mercy and forgiveness.

We pray to the Lord.

Let us gaze upon the love and concern Jesus has for the outcast and the sinner. May our Lenten journey bring each of us closer to the healing miracle of Jesus Christ.

We pray to the Lord.

Let us pray for people wearied by the darkness of doubt, the pain of illness, the silence of regret and fear. May we all find the tenderness of Jesus’ forgiving spirit.

We pray to the Lord.

Let us pray for our family members who heap burdens of blame on one another. May we all discover a new relationship with Christ Jesus and the surefooted love of family.

We pray to the Lord.

Let us pray for our catechumens and candidates in their last days of preparation for the glorious Easter sacraments. May we learn to hear the questions of our new members.

We pray to the Lord.

Let us pray for our dead in our Lenten season. May they see the radiant face of Jesus Christ. In this Mass…

We pray to the Lord
