Christ the King Bidding Prayers for the 4th Sunday in Easter, 2019

Jesus is our Shepherd and we come together to ask him for our needs and for the needs of others.

Reader;     The response is; Lord, in your mercy, Hear our prayer.

In this Easter season, we pray for our priests, and for all who teach and spread the message of Christian love and discipleship..…pause…………..

Lord, in your mercy– (Hear our prayer)

We pray for families who have lost everything they possess; most recently following the cyclone in India, but also the people of Mozambique and Malawi, so quickly forgotten in the news bulletins.  May the aid agencies succeed in providing support and enabling them to rebuild their homes and their lives.

Lord, in your mercy– (Hear our prayer)

We pray for the young people of our 3 Churches who have received Holy Communion for the the first time this weekend. May they grow in their love and appreciation for Jesus’ presence with us in the Blessed Sacrament.
