Lord, Hear our Prayer

For all who are separated from loved ones because of war: that God will be a saving presence for them and reunite them with those who love them, we pray to the Lord:
Lord, Hear our Prayer

For those newly baptized: that they will allow their faith to burn in their own lives, and that they will in turn illuminate the faith of others, we pray:

Lord, Hear our Prayer

For the silent prayers of our hearts and for any special prayers you wish to mention now…
