The Assumption of Our Lady : Bidding Prayers / Intercessions / Prayer of the Faithful

The Feast of the Assumption

Priest: 
With trust in the Lord who calls us all to follow Him we present all our prayers to Him, confident in His unceasing mercy.

Reader:
For the Church:
May the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of the Church, guide and support all bishops, priests and deacons with her maternal love.
Lord, hear us.

For our young people as they receive their examination results: May the Father grant them the vision of the fullness of life, that he offers them through the following of his Son.
Lord, hear us.

For the sick, the poor and the lonely:
May find the assurance of God’s presence in the love of his people.
Lord, hear us.

For the faithful departed:
May they come to dwell with Our Lady in the presence of the risen Lord.
Lord, hear us.

Let us now turn to Mary, who was assumed sinless into heaven, and seek her intercession as we say:
 Hail Mary …

In the silence of our hearts we bring all our needs to the presence of God our merciful Father.

Priest:
Loving Father, who raised up the Blessed Virgin Mary into your Heavenly Kingdom, accept our prayers which we make with faith, and bring us into your holy embrace through your Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
