29th Sunday of the Year : Bidding Prayers / Intercessions / Prayer of the Faithful

The Priest says:

Gathered together in Christ as brothers and sisters, let us call to mind God's many blessings and ask him to hear the prayers which he himself inspires us to ask.

Reader:

We pray for all bishops and priests and the people they have been called to serve.
Lord, hear us. Lord, graciously hear us.

We pray for all those who serve in public office and for all those entrusted with the common good.
Lord, hear us. Lord, graciously hear us.

We pray for all who suffer oppression, exploitation, sickness, for those in anxiety and for all who tend to their needs,
Lord, hear us. Lord, graciously hear us.

We pray for those who have died in Christ, and for all those who mourn their loss.
Lord, hear us. Lord, graciously hear us.

We pray for all of us gathered here in this holy place in faith, reverence and the love of God.
Lord, hear us. Lord, graciously hear us.

Let us unite our prayers with the perpetual intercession of Our Lady as we say: Hail Mary .

We pray for a moment in silence.

The priest concludes the prayers:

God of love, our refuge and strength, hear the prayers of your Church, and grant us today what we ask of you in faith. Through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
