Intercessions ~ Sunday of the Holy Trinity





On Trinity Sunday we ask that as we are drawn into God's inner life/ we would find not only God but each other/ and all the world in its poverty,/ fear and instability./ We pray to the Lord.

June beings on Monday/ the month of the Sacred Heart of Jesus./ We pray to know the loving kindness of God in Christ/ and to allow ourselves to be changed and evolved by that love./ We pray to the Lord.

We entrust the children of the world to our prayer as they face perils in so many places./ We ask for the movement of hearts which will make the care of the world's children a priority of love./ We pray to the Lord.

As June begins we pray for those who will celebrate birthdays,/ anniversaries and other days of remembrance/ asking for gifts of good health,/ peace and safety./ We pray to the Lord.

We pray boldly for an end to wars/ and for our own inner liberation from anything that would prevent the full realization of God's peace and reconciliation in our lives./ We pray to the Lord.

We pray to be careful stewards of our planet,/ using its resources wisely and justly/ and guardians of the animals,/ plants,/ water and air/ as these are God's precious gifts to us./ We pray to the Lord.

And finally we pray for those who have died,/ remembering that so many die violently,/ suddenly,/ alone or without a prayer./ We pray to the Lord.
