Parish Prayer Intentions and Petitions
PARISH PRAYERS OF THE FAITHFUL
Intercessions for 26/27 September 2020
We pray for our church, that the Holy Spirit will empower us to grow in faith, prayer and Christian service, and help us to be living witnesses for the Lord.
Lord hear us.
We pray for all authority that they may govern wisely and with due regard for the needs of all people. We remember also those families who are deeply affected by the current economic situation, and where there is unemployment or fear for the future.
Lord hear us.
At this special Thanksgiving time of the year we pray for all who work so that we have food to eat and share.
Lord hear us.
We pray for a quick control of the coronavirus currently ravaging our world. May the Lord hear graciously the prayers we make for those affected by the virus in various parts of the world.
Lord hear us.
We pray for the sick, both at home and in hospital or hospice. We think of the elderly, the housebound and those in care homes. And we pray for all those who minister to their needs.
Lord hear us.
We pray for those who have died, especially Walter Sargent, Matt Tunney, and Fr Albert Van der Most, and for those who mourn the loss of loved ones whether recently or long ago. May the knowledge of the resurrection in glory be a comfort at this time.
Lord hear us.
