- For the Church: may we allow the authoritative teachings of Jesus to guide and challenge us as we seek to live authentically
We pray to the Lord.
- For the grace to be grounded in God: may each seek God first in their lives and love purely as celibate priests, deacons, religious, married or single persons
We pray to the Lord.
- For all who exercise authority: may they use their authority as Jesus did, to free, to heal, and to build up our global community
We pray to the Lord.
- For all who are bound by evil: may the Spirit of Christ release them from addictions, greed or vengeance so to live freely as God’s children
We pray to the Lord.
- For those consecrated to God by the vows of chastity, poverty and obedience: may they seek to live their baptismal promises more intensely and have the grace to persevere in their commitment to the Lord and serve with open hearts and willing spirits
We pray to the Lord
- For the ill: may God’s love strengthen, heal and sustain them. 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 they see God’s presence. We pray for Domenico Quattrociocchi, Renato Sovran, Oliana Ferrari, Bruna Bertolo, Francis La Madrid, Fr. E. Ramos
We pray to the Lord.
