Bidding Prayers for 9 April (Easter Sunday)

BIDDING PRAYERS for Sunday Mass on 9 April

Introduction (by the Presider)  My brothers and sisters, let us give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, his love has no end! He answered the prayers of his Beloved Son: we trust he will help us in our needs too…

  1. That those baptised at Easter may always walk in the light ( pause and pray for this…). Lord, hear us
  2. That all who who celebrate the resurrection today may have new hope ( pause and pray for this… ). Lord, hear us.
  3. That people who do not believe may find faith ( pause and pray for this..). Lord hear us.
  4. That those who suffer may have our support ( pause and pray for this…). Lord hear us
  5. That people afraid of eviction may get the help they need ( pause and pray for this…). Lord hear us.
  6. That the poor and homeless may feel the compassion of Christians ( pause and pray for this…). Lord hear us.

The Presider prays for the dead:  That those who have died may share the glory of the resurrection: We remember especially those who died recently (N & N) and those whose anniversaries occur (N & N) and all those who passed away since last Easter ( pause and pray for this…).  Lord, hear us.

Conclusion (by the Presider)  O God our saviour and redeemer, you lead your people from defeat to triumph: hear and grant our prayers, through Christ our risen Lord. Amen.
