Third Sunday in Lent

For our Church, renewed in living waters,
we pray to the Lord.

For our world,
healed from greed, selfishness, prejudice
and the feeble quest for power and control,
we pray to the Lord.

For our sisters and brothers
who this day know more pain than promise,
more despair than hope,
more sadness than joy,
more judgement than acceptance,
we pray to the Lord.

For all who hunger and thirst
for food,
for clean water,
for righteousness,
for justice
for peace,
we pray to the Lord.

For our Elect and candidates for the Easter Sacraments,
for wisdom on their journeys with the Lord,
and a Spirit of accompaniment with us,
we pray to the Lord.

For courage to walk our Lenten journey,
for a willingness to open our hardened hearts
for the commitment to change and grow in love.
we pray to the Lord.

For all who have died,
for (Insert Names),
we pray to the Lord.
