Fourth Sunday of the Year (B) |The Universal Prayer / Bidding Prayers / Intercessions / Prayer of the Faithful

Fourth Sunday of the Year (B)
His teaching made a deep impression

Priest
With confidence in God’s loving mercy, we bring before Him our prayers and petitions.

Reader
For Pope Francis and Archbishop Bernard;
may they be faithful teachers, wise administrators and holy priests.  May their word and example inspire the priests and people of this diocese.
Lord, hear us.

For World leaders; may they do everything in their power to extend education to all and to combat the extremist forces that are terrorising the world.
Lord, hear us.

For those involved in education: teachers and support staff, school governors, catechists and youth leaders, that they may help young people to fulfil their potential and become confident members of the community.
Lord, hear us.

For ourselves: that we may have the peace of heart to listen deeply to Christ’s teaching message, and put it into action.
Lord, hear us.

We commend to the Lord all who have died..
May they have light and peace.
Lord, hear us.

We now ask Mary, our Blessed Lady, to intercede for us in our prayers as we say Hail Mary…

We now offer our private prayers and intentions to Our Lord.

Priest:
Lord Our God, help us to love you above all things with a love that is worthy of you. Look kindly on the prayers of your people made today through your son Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God forever and ever. Amen.
