Trusting in the power of Christ’s resurrection to heal and redeem our broken world, let us pray for the needs of all creation.
A brief silence.
God of new life, you call us through the waters of baptism to be in relationship with you and one another. Guide the church and its leaders to
proclaim Christ’s righteousness throughout the world.
Merciful God,
receive our prayer.
You create the world and all that is in it. Shelter budding plants and young
animals, provide unpolluted habitats and clean water, and raise up stewards
for the environment.
Merciful God,
receive our prayer.
You set civil servants in the places where we live. Instill truth and equity
among judges and lawyers, gentleness and courage among first responders,
and peace among leaders of towns and nations.
Merciful God,
receive our prayer.
You provide comfort in times of trouble. Heal those who are sick, shelter any
who are unhoused, feed those undernourished, and accompany and console
all who are lonely, bereaved, anxious, or ill especially Frankie Dinnebier,
Larry Smith, Caleb Schmitz, Dick Frush, Bonnie Thompson, and
Nancy Olson.
Merciful God,
receive our prayer.
You are love and you desire that we love one another. As a mother hen cares
for her chicks, bless all who provide motherly care in our lives, and inspire
us to care for one another.
Merciful God,
receive our prayer.
Here other intercessions may be offered.
God of new life, your steadfast love endures forever. Inspire us by the
example of the faithful departed, who clung to your promises of life,
forgiveness of sins, and salvation.
Merciful God,
receive our prayer.
God of resurrection power, use us and these prayers to proclaim the good
news of new life to all the world, through Jesus Christ, our risen Savior.
Amen.
