General Intentions 8/31/14

22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time, Cycle A
August 31, 2014

Heavenly Father we thank you for revealing your son Jesus to us and through him, your fathership to us.  With a child's confidence, we place our heart's petitions in your hands.

For our Pope that His message of Peace & concern for the poor fills the world

For leadership in this country, that their policies allow people to live, grow and pray in freedom allowing mutual respect and understanding.

For those who are sick physically, emotionally or spiritually, the your healing touch will give courage to them, and if it be your will, restore them

For those returning to school this week, that the Lord provide a nurturing environment free from violence and filled with mutual respect

For those suffering violence in our country and around the world.
May we always have the courage to reflect the Peace that Jesus offers in our families, towns, and countries

For those whose lives have been touched by death, that the Lord provide his consolation and presence, and that our love for the ones who have left us continue to shine the love of our Father through our lives.

We offer our prayers through your son, Jesus the Christ .  Hear the prayers of your children and grant them through your love.
