Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ,
We recommend to you all persons dear to us.
We pray for the sick, the suffering,
the hungry, the homeless.
We pray for peoples of all faiths
and those with no faith at all.

Hear our confident plea for our Holy Father the Pope,
for bishops and clergy,
for all who are engaged in religious or secular callings.
Bless your missionaries spreading the good news of salvation in lands afar.
Strengthen the heavily burdened,
revive hope in the despairing,
grant liberty to victims of injustice and persecution.
Impart wisdom to judges, civil servants,
and all who hold positions of leadership in the secular realm.

Into your hands, Lord Jesus Christ,
I entrust these prayers for one and all.
I implore your compassion and mercy
for every known and unknown human need,
since all power is yours on earth as in heaven.

Amen.
