Advent 2
The Priest introduces the prayers:
As children of our caring, heavenly Father, let us pray.
Reader:
We pray for all priests in this year of priests
that they may simply and wholeheartedly follow Christ,
so that their lives witness to the beauty and peace of his kingdom.
Lord, hear us. Lord, graciously hear us.
We pray for all world leaders, governments and their advisers;
that they may be inspired to lead their people wisely and fairly, with understanding and sensitivity.
Lord, hear us. Lord, graciously hear us.
We pray for our own families and loved ones,
especially for any from whom we are separated; that we may learn to see Christ in each face, and serve him in caring for each other.
Lord, hear us. Lord, graciously hear us.
We pray for the sick and those who care for them,
that in Christ they may find hope and strength.
Lord, hear us. Lord, graciously hear us.
We join our prayers with Our Lady as we say: Hail Mary .
We pray in silence for all our needs.
The Priest concludes the prayers:
Almighty God,
give us grace to cast away the works of darkness and to put on the armour of light, now in the time of this mortal life, in which your Son Jesus Christ came to us in great humility;
that on the last day, when he shall come again in his glorious majesty to judge the living and the dead, we may rise to the life immortal;
through him who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Amen
