Let us begin this season of hope and expectation with hearts and voices raised in prayer to “the Lord or justice”:
That our parish community may “overflow” with the love of Christ for one another and for all: let us pray to the Lord.
That all nations and peoples may dwell secure in the peace and justice of God: let us pray to the Lord.
That this Advent season may be a time, not for mindless consumerism, but for the renewal and re-creation of human hearts: let us pray to the Lord.
That families in crisis and those who are separated and estranged from one another may rediscover love and faithfulness in this season of light and hope: let us pray to the lord.
That the sick and the dying may be strengthened by our prayer and compassion for them: let us pray to the Lord.
That Christ will bring into his Father’s presence the souls of all our deceased relatives and friends [especially _________]: let us pray to the Lord.
That God will grant in kindness and mercy the prayers we now make in the silence of our hearts [Pause...]: let us pray to the Lord.
Come, O Lord, and redeem us. Heal us with your peace, teach us in your ways of justice and mercy, and re-create us in your love. We ask this in the name of your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ.
