March Prayer Intention

March Prayer Intention

We pray for the poor of the world:

Lord we pray that you would look with compassion on those who are poor.

Those who lack food, water and shelter.

Those who lack financial security.

Those who lack health.

Those who lack peace and justice.

 

Creator God, who made our beautiful world,

appointed us as its guardians

and gifted us with everything we need,

forgive us for the times we cause it harm;

for the times our way of life affects our neighbours.

Inspire us

to care for the environment;

to help rebuild lives and communities;

to share in the griefs and anxieties,

joys and hopes of all your people,

so that all your creation may flourish.

 

Amen.

 

We will be having a monthly prayer intention throughout the year and if anyone has ideas for areas of intercession please let us know. The first meeting of each month will be set aside for praying for the particular monthly intention.
