On this page, we ask you to pray for the sick of the parish, those who have passed from this world to eternal life and other crises that face our world.
The Sick
Please pray for your own family and friend who are sick at this time. Those in hospitals suffering from their illness be it physical or mental. Pray for those who are suffering from drug addiction or any form of addiction.
Those who have died
Family and friends, those who’s anniversaries occur at this time. Those who have died from war and conflict. Those who have died from famine and hunger, parishioners that have gone before us.
The Poor and Oppressed
Those suffering from poverty which is inflicted upon them, those who are oppressed so that they can have no freedom of conscience or speech
For the Church
For all Christian and other faiths that are being persecuted either by governments or secular ideology which undermine the Christian faith and values. Pray that all faith may come to realize that only through peace can there be true and lasting peace which is the aspiration of all.
Governments
Pray for our leaders, that they may govern with wisdom and humanity. That by their action and policies we may have a society which is a community of care and love for neighbour. Pray that power does not harden the heart of leaders but that they may rule with compassion for the many and not the few.
As the universal church if we take a few minutes every day to pray for our needs and the needs of the world then perhaps we can make a change to our world so please pray.
