    Prayers for June 8, 2025


    Filled by the breath of the Spirit, let us pray for the church, the world, and all who are in need.


    Holy Lord, we give you thanks for the Church, the body of Christ. May it be an instrument of justice and peace for the world to witness. Help all of us to be the carriers of your mercy and love. 

              Hear us, O God, your mercy is great.


    Wellspring of life, we pray for the health of your creation. Give us wisdom to steward our resources and care for the earth. Protect communities from natural disasters and the evils of pollution and greed.

              Hear us, O God, your mercy is great.


    God of all nations, we cry out for peace in our troubled world. Bring an end to war and conflict, especially in places like Israel, Gaza, and Ukraine. Give leaders the wisdom to make decisions that preserve life and protect the vulnerable. 

              Hear us, O God, your mercy is great.


    God of healing and consolation, we pray for all those who suffer in mind, body, and/or spirit. Give hope to those who despair, light to those who are lost, and comfort to those in pain. We pray especially for victims of systemic injustice, those on our prayer list, and those we name in our hearts.  

              Hear us, O God, your mercy is great.


    God of Word and Truth, pour our your Holy Spirit on our Confirmands. We pray their paths may be straight, and that they may be given strength to go out into the world as your disciples.  

              Hear us, O God, your mercy is great.


    God of steadfast love, we give you thanks for all those who have gone before us in faith and now rest with you. Let their lives encourage us and remind us that we are always in your hands.

              Hear us, O God, your mercy is great.
