27th Sunday of the Year
The Priest says:
My brothers and sisters, in baptism each of us was sealed as a child of God and received a share in the priesthood of Christ. Now we ask God for the grace to live and work as faithful Christians.
Reader:
We pray for the Church,
that the Holy Spirit may inspire us to glorify the Lord with our lives and bring the truth of the Gospel to our neighbours and our communities.
Lord, hear us. Lord, graciously hear us.
We pray for those in authority,
that the rulers of all countries may seek the paths to peace.
Lord, hear us. Lord, graciously hear us.
We pray for all who go hungry because of poverty and injustice:
that through God’s grace we may be moved to bring about change,
so that each and every person has good food and clean water.
Lord, hear us. Lord, graciously hear us.
We pray for those who have died,
that they may find eternal salvation.
Lord, hear us. Lord, graciously hear us.
We pray with Mary, Mother of God. Hail Mary ...
In a moment of silence, let us make our private prayers to God.
The priest concludes the prayers:
Almighty Father, may your Church, which owes its unity to the Holy Spirit, be immune to the attacks of its enemies and, just as Christ triumphed over death, may your Church emerge victorious over evil. We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
