Solemnity of SS Peter & Paul
29th June
Priest
Jesus brought healing, comfort and new life to those who believe. Let us join our prayers of intercession for our needs and the needs of the world.
Reader
For Pope Francis, successor of St Peter, and all the Bishops of the Church who follow in the line of the apostles: may they continue to be a sign of faith to all people in a world faced with sadness and strife.
Lord, hear us.
For all our priests and deacons, especially those soon to be ordained or recently ordained. May their lives of service be an inspiration to all, and so lead to an increase in vocations to the priesthood, diaconate and the religious life.
Lord, hear us.
For our Parish and all its people; may we encourage others to share their gifts, energy and enthusiasm within the Church, that our community of faith may be a living example of the mystery of God’s presence among us.
Lord, hear us.
For the souls of all who have died recently and those whose anniversaries occur about this time.
May they enjoy the eternal light of God’s risen glory.
Lord, hear us.
Let us now ask Mary to pray for us as we pray Hail Mary…
We now pray for a few moments in the silence of our hearts.
Priest
Loving Father, through the holy apostles we received the beginnings of right religion
and through their teaching, their successors, and their prayers
they continue to guide and lead us.
Hear these prayers which we make
with confidence in your continuing love and mercy
in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
