Prayer of the Faithful for the 27th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Introduction (by the Presider): Let us make our prayers known to God our creator.

  1. For an end to war and hatred (pause for silent prayer). Lord, hear us
  2. For the care of migrants in every land (pause for silent prayer). Lord, hear us.
  3. For everyone searching for a place to live (pause for silent prayer). Lord, hear us.
  4. For missionaries — people who bring hope (pause for silent prayer). Lord, hear us.
  5. For those suffering because of loneliness (pause for silent prayer). Lord, hear us.
  6. For all who are sick and in sorrow (pause for silent prayer). Lord, hear us.

The presider prays for the dead:  For our friends who have died (especially N and N), that all those we have lost to death may be part of God’s flock forever (we pray quietly for this). Lord, hear us. 

Conclusion (by the Presider) O God you are our rock, you made us and know all our needs, listen to our prayers, through Christ our Lord. Amen.
