Bidding Prayers: Corpus Christi, 14th June 2020

CELEBRANT

The Lord loves us so much that he gives us everything, including his very self; let us therefore with confidence bring our needs to him.

READER

Let us remember all those who serve at the altar of the Eucharist throughout the world: may bishops, priests and deacons be blessed for their service, and those God calls into this sacramental ministry find the support and love they need. Lord hear us

As we celebrate The Feast of Corpus Christi let us rejoice in the real presence of the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist. Although we are unable to receive sacramentally at this time, we ask you to enter spiritually into our hearts and unite wholly with you. Lord hear us

We pray for greater understanding within our local communities. Help people desire justice and peace and be willing to challenge racism and the damage it causes. May we all work towards building a future to secure equality for all God’s people. Lord hear us

We pray for our family, friends and colleagues as we enter a new phase of lockdown. May we always be mindful of the safety and well being of others. We remember especially the elderly and those vulnerable members of our community. Lord hear us

Let us pause for a moment in silence as we bring to the Lord our personal prayers and intentions……….. Lord hear us

We ask Mary our blessed Mother to watch over and guide us as we pray; Hail Mary………………………..

CELEBRANT

Father, we come to you with trusting hearts, ever grateful for your great love for us. As we offer these prayers, we ask you to send your Spirit ever more deeply into the areas of our concern. We ask this through Christ our Lord
Amen
