Prayers Of The Faithful – August 15

For Pope Francis, Bishop Christian and all the Bishops who depend on our daily prayer to encourage and strengthen them.
We pray to the Lord.

For the world as it faces conflicts, natural and man-made disasters, inequality in healthcare and food distribution and for the people and church agencies that bring aid and hope to those who suffer most.
We pray to the Lord.

For our Diocese, as we celebrate the Feast of the Assumption and for our families and friends who celebrate their Acadian heritage and faith claiming Mary as their Mother.
We pray to the Lord.

For our province as we encounter the uncertainties in this phase of the pandemic and for the grace to be hopeful and use common sense as we make choices for ourselves and our children.
We pray to the Lord.

For people in need of our prayer as they live with chronic physical or mental illness and for people awaiting surgery and treatment.
We pray to the Lord.

For those who have died: Laudianne Legere, Walter Fillmore, Millie Kingston, Cajetan Maillet, Shirley Goddard; that Mary, Queen of Heaven, will embrace them and present them to her Son.
We pray to the Lord.
