Reconciled by God’s mercy and sustained by God’s presence, let us pray for the world and its needs.
A brief silence.
God of all grace, grant faith to your church. Give to all the baptized the will to resist temptation and to worship and serve you alone.
Hear us, O God.
Your mercy is great.
God of all creation, tend this earth. When human greed and disobedience threaten this planet and the life it contains, lead us by your Spirit into ways of reverence, awe, and gentleness.
Hear us, O God.
Your mercy is great.
God of all nations, preserve us from trouble. Surround all living in places of violence with your steadfast love and give resilience to all who work for peace. Grant courage to those who challenge, especially around issues of racism and systemic oppression.
Hear us, O God.
Your mercy is great.
God of all healing, mend our wounds. Bring wholeness to all who are sick, give peace to all who groan in grief, and send companions to all who are lonely or isolated. Especially, we pray for Frankie Dinnebier, Michelle Bush, Maddie Craft, Larry Smith, Caleb Schmitz, Dick Frush, Bonnie Thompson, and Nancy Olson.
Hear us, O God.
Your mercy is great.
God of all people, provide for our community. For any among us who hunger for bread, bring nourishment. For any among us who hunger for truth, speak your life-giving word.
Hear us, O God.
Your mercy is great.
God of all life, bring us to you. We thank you for your free and abounding grace, and for those who, by that same grace, now rest eternally in you.
Hear us, O God.
Your mercy is great.
Receive our prayers, O God, through Jesus Christ, our strength and salvation.
Amen.
