- For the Church: may we share the Gospel’s Light with all who struggle to recognize good from evil, truth from lies and selfless love from self-serving activity
We pray to the Lord.
- For reconciliation amongst communities of faith: may we each repent of past wrongs and work together to confront evil and violence in the world as we live our vocations as single, married, religious, deacons and priests
We pray to the Lord.
- For openness in caring for our environment: may God help us see damage done to our air, water and land and guide us in developing policies to protect the environment from further harm
We pray to the Lord.
- For all doctors, nurses and healthcare professionals: may they be permitted to function according to their conscience and may God give them wisdom to contain the virus, search for a cure and strengthen those caring for the sick
We pray to the Lord.
- For all who are ill and those with coronavirus: may God relieve their suffering and shatter their fear. Let us pray especially for those whose names have been placed on our altar.
We pray to the Lord.
- For all who have died: may God welcome them to the New Life.
We pray to the Lord.
