Bidding Prayers 13 Nov 2022 (33rd Sunday)

BIDDING PRAYERS for Sunday Mass

Introduction (by the Presider) My friends, let us make our prayers known to God who rules the earth, who saves the lives of the poor.

  1. That the Church may be a voice for the poor (pray quietly). Lord, hear us
  2. That people without jobs may not lose their dignity (pray quietly). Lord, hear us.
  3. That those who live in fear may know that God is with them (pray quietly). Lord hear us.
  4. That refugees from Ukraine may be well looked after (pray quietly). Lord hear us
  5. That the homeless people on our streets may get shelter (pray quietly). Lord hear us.
  6. That our communities may be places of love and welcome (pray quietly). Lord hear us.

The presider prays for the dead: For the faithful departed (especially N and N), that all we have loved may be raised to life on the last day. (Pause for silent prayer) Lord, hear us.

Conclusion (by the Presider) Lord our God, you rule the world with justice: help us in all our needs, we pray, through Christ our Lord. Amen.
