FacebookTwitterEmail

Let us pray for the whole Church of God in Christ Jesus and for all people according to their needs.

Brief silence

Lord God, You have graciously revealed Yourself to us as one God in three Divine Persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We thank You for the gift of the Creeds that teach us to confess You, our Creator, Redeemer and Sanctifier. Let us never cease to confess this faith in the Holy Trinity, giving glory always to the Father, to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. Lord, in Your mercy, hear our prayer.

Almighty Father, Your faithful servant Barnabas generously gave his life and gifts to support the work of the apostles and to benefit the early Christian community in Jerusalem. Grant that we may follow his example in giving our lives to charity and the proclamation of the Gospel. Be with the relief agencies of our Synod. Bless the good work that they do in Your name, and let those served be strengthened both physically and spiritually. Lord, in Your mercy, hear our prayer.

Loving heavenly Father, look with favor upon the mission fields here and abroad. Let new congregations take root and flourish, that through them the Spirit may bring the lost to the joy of faith in Christ. Be with all missionaries and their families, sustaining them in challenging times. Help us to support them with our prayers and in sharing those gifts You have poured out for us in abundance. Lord, in Your mercy, hear our prayer.
