Bidding Prayers
BIDDING PRAYERS for Sunday Mass on 10 December - Second Sunday of Advent (Year B)
Introduction (by the Presider)The Lord will make us prosper, so we present our prayers to God:
- For a spirit of repentance among people of faith (pause and pray for this...). Lord, hear us.
- For peace with justice in Ukraine and the Holy Land (pause and pray for him...). Lord, hear us.
- For reconciliation between all people at war (pause and pray for this...). Lord, hear us.
- For children, as they prepare to welcome Christ (pause and pray for this...). Lord, hear us.
- For the suffering people of Gaza (pause). Lord, hear us.
- For homeless men, women and children in Ireland (pause and pray for this...). Lord, hear us.
The Presider prays for the dead: For those who have been taken from us in death (especially N and N) (and for Cork & Ross priests Canon John K O'Mahony and Fr Pat Walsh who died recently) that they may rest in peace (pause a moment for quiet prayer...). Lord, hear us.
Conclusion (by the Presider)God of mercy, your help is near for those who trust in you: hear the prayers we make in faith, through Christ our Lord. Amen
