28th Sunday of the Year (14th October 2007)

Priest:
Jesus urges us to persevere in prayer, and so we turn to the Father asking with confidence for all our needs.

Reader:
Let us pray for the Church throughout the world, that followers of Christ everywhere may rejoice in God's loving care for them.
Lord, hear us.

Let us pray for those who govern our country that they may do so wisely and with a sense of justice.
Lord, hear us.

Let us pray for those who find it difficult to pray that the Lord may touch their hearts with the assurance of his presence.
Lord, hear us.

Let us pray for ourselves that we may persevere in prayer and never lose heart.
Lord, hear us.

Let us pray for those who have died, especially those who are dear to us:
that the Lord will welcome them into the joy of his kingdom.
Lord, hear us.

Let us ask Our Lady to pray for us: Hail Mary …

We pray for a moment in silence.

Priest:
Lord our God,
your Son Jesus Christ has revealed to us
your great love and compassion.
We ask you to hear our prayers and to answer them,
through the same Christ our Lord.
