We pray for and with Pope Francis,/ that we would cast a wide net of compassion for the sick,/ the elderly,/ the asylum seekers,/ the dying,/ those who live where there is war or terrorist threat,/ deep poverty or horror./ We pray to the Lord.
Racism is a deep and long held stain on our country./ We pray to be awakened and healed of this national affliction,/ freed of stereotyping,/ threats,/ divisive rhetoric,/ ignorance and lies./ We pray to the Lord.
One senator says that our politics needs a renaissance./ And so we pray for the President of the United States/ and those in leadership across the nation./ We ask for that re-birth which would advance the health,/ growth and well-being of all./ We pray to the Lord.
That our minds would be harmonized with our hearts./ May we be aware of God in our mouths,/ our eyes,/ our hearing and our touch,/ day and night./ We pray to the Lord.
We pray for those in the Mid-South who are struggling after a strong hurricane/ and others in California after a recent earthquake./ We pray to the Lord.
For our families and friends,/ our co-workers and neighbors./ For those whose health and family life are suffering for lack of money/ or having to work more than one job./ We pray to the Lord.
