Spring officially begins this week./ Its melting and fresh growth are signs that we can change./ May God bring to completion the good begun in us./ We pray to the Lord.
Spring is the season of seed planting./ May the seeds of inclusion,/ courtesy,/ hospitality and hope/ be planted in us./ We pray to the Lord.
We pray for Pope Francis/ who leads us in walking the Lenten way of prayer,/ fasting and care for the poor./ For those who are pilgrims to the Holy Land and Rome during Lent./ For those who are preparing for Baptism at Easter./ We pray to the Lord.
On the feast of St. Patrick,/ the Apostle to Ireland,/ we pray to spread the good news of Christ's victory over shadow and sin,/ by living lives reflective of Christ's generous heart of love./ We pray to the Lord.
We pray for the President of the United States,/ our Congress and all in positions of authority./ For our friends and family members,/ mindful of those who ask for healing/ and freedom from anxiety./ We pray to the Lord.
We pray for those who have suffered greatly after the destructive tornadoes in Alabama,/ and the many around the world who are grieving the loss of loved ones,/ after the Ethiopian plane crash this week./ We pray to the Lord.
