Priest: The risen Christ has sent us his spirit
so that we may play our part in the salvation of the world. With this in mind, we pray for all the needs of the Church and the world and for ourselves that we may live lives of grace.
Reader: 1. We pray for the Church, for the Pope,
bishops, priests, religious and people,
that we may all be so guided by the Holy Spirit
that the Church can continue to proclaim
the good news of true peace for our world.
Lord hear us
2. We pray for all those who have power in world affairs.
May they seek not only to avoid war between nations,
but through laws based on human rights and dignity,
lay the foundations of lasting world peace.
Lord hear us
