We pray to the Lord.
- For the grace to be faithful witnesses: may we give testimony to Christ as we see God at work in us and in the lives of those around us as Peter did
We pray to the Lord.

We pray to the Lord.
- For all who doubt their worth or have lost hope: may the glory of the Transfiguration free them from despair and open a new vision for what God can do for each person
We pray to the Lord.
- For peace: may God help leaders to end violence in our streets, Syria and Iraq so that all may live in peace and safety
We pray to the Lord.
- For all in sickness or grief: may Christ’s light and resurrection guide them to newness of life. Let us pray especially for those whose names have been placed on our altar.
We pray to the Lord.
