Seventeenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Fill your Church with the gift of wisdom.
May we discern your way in the midst of conflicting ideas and values.
We pray to the Lord.
Heal our world from its addition to power.
Guide leaders of nations, states and communities
to seek understanding and the common good.
We pray to the Lord.
Shower the gifts of knowledge and insight on scientists and researchers,
on pastors and counselors,
on teachers and social workers.
We pray to the Lord.
May our allegiance always be to you, loving God,
Not to popularity, wealth
or others who would seek the loyalty of our hearts.
We pray to the Lord.
We are mindful of all who work for our community’s wellbeing.
For construction & electrical workers,
For all who repair our roads, remove our trash,
make deliveries and provide clean water.
For safety and fair wages and benefits.
We pray to the Lord.
For all who struggle with forgiveness, with change, with conversion.
We pray to the Lord.
May
(Insert names)
and all the dead
Live now in your kingdom of peace.
We pray to the Lord.
