Priest

As we face up to the costly loving shown by our God, let us approach him in humility and pray to him now.

O God, may the kingdoms of this world soak up the values of your kingdom; may their leaders and their peoples uphold what is right and just, and establish a social order which is rooted in Godly love. Lord in your mercy Hear our prayer

O God, in all the heartaches and joys of human relationships, may we be governed by selfless love, faithful and forgiving like you, without limit. Lord in your mercy Hear our prayer

O God, grant us a fruitful observance of Holy Week May we use this Holy Week profitably: for reflection and prayer, for renewal and repentance, for acts of charity, for worship and sharing. Lord in your mercy Hear our prayer
