Prayers

Remembering Your Passion, may I follow where you lead, and though I may be fearful, find in You the strength I need.

Lord, As You did during Your ministry on Earth, please help us to accept one another, for all are people meant to grow in faith as the disciples You want us to be.

O Lord, God of goodness and mercy, Who in the midst of an evil and sinful world hast presented to the society of the redeemed the Holy Family of Nazareth as a spotless mirror of piety, justice and love, behold how the family is being undermined on all sides, every effort being made to desecrate it by stripping it of faith, religion and morals....

Blessed Virgin Mary, please be with me as I pray that whatever God desires be done through me each day.

O God, you hate nothing that you have made and tenderly call your creation into reconciliation with you, that we all may have life in abundance.

O Lord, Jesus Christ, Redeemer and Saviour, forgive my sins, just as You forgave Peter's denial and those who crucified You.

Lord Jesus, Risen Savior, Born to redeem Your sheep gone astray, As a shepherd desiring that none be lost, You gave Your love and earthly life, Forgiving even as You died on the Cross.

Lord Jesus, You made me and accept me, Yet challenge me today To grow in faith and share my beliefs As a follower of Your way.

O God, we implore you to rescue us and extend your mercy to the elderly, the young, the impoverished, the orphaned, the widowed, and all those who suffer from illness and grief, facing troubles, afflictions, oppression, captivity, and imprisonment.

Lord Jesus, loving Shepherd, In every care and every choice, May I listen to Your voice; For You suffered on the Cross, So that Your flock would not be lost.
