For salvation: that we all will offer our broken spirits to God in order to be made whole again, we pray:
Lord, Hear our Prayer

For those who suffer from violence and hatred: that they may call on the name of the Lord, and be comforted by his mercy and love, we pray to the Lord:
Lord, Hear our Prayer

For catechumens as they prepare for the Rite of Election: that they will open their hearts to God’s love, and be drawn closer to God during this Lenten season, we pray to the Lord:

For the members and friends of St. Paul’s: that we may use this Lenten season to allow ourselves to enter into a deeper relationship with God; and that we may have faith in Him without having to test his power or love, we pray to the Lord:

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