Prayers of the People February 16, 2020

By St. John's Lutheran Church

Trusting that God hears us, let us pray for the church, the world, and all those in need. 

A brief silence. 

A: Shepherding God, you protect and guide us with your word. Lead your church into an ever-closer relationship with you, that we might better know your commands, hold fast to your decrees, and live in your law. Hear us, O God. 

C: Your mercy is great. 

A: God of the cosmos, heaven, and earth bear witness to the splendor of all you have created. Restore synergy between humankind and the natural world, that we may live in harmony with the world you have made. Hear us, O God. 

C: Your mercy is great. 

A: God of peace, you show solidarity with all who suffer. Bring an end to violence, war, discrimination, and all other forms of deadly hate, that we may experience your love through the power of justice. Hear us, O God. 

C: Your mercy is great. 

A: God of hope, you provide bountifully for all people. Use our lives to alleviate global injustice and eliminate poverty, that all benefit from the abundant gifts you pour out for your people. Hear us, O God. 

C: Your mercy is great. 

A: God of comfort, we pray for those separated from loved ones by distance, estrangement, or loss. Help us as we care for others and rely on others’ care. We especially pray for especially: Garth Bendel, Julie Ellingson, Chris & Sheri Finstad, Olivia Lake, Kingston McFarland, Alice Rostad, Irene Swann, The Fanning Family, Harry & Diane Wulf,, and for those who mourn. Hear us, O God. 

C: Your mercy is great. 

Here other intercessions may be offered. 

P: Confident that you are able to accomplish more than we even dare to ask, we bring these prayers before you, believing in your saving grace revealed in Jesus Christ our Lord. 

C: Amen.
