Weekly Prayers of the People
As God’s beloved children united in Christ, let us pray for the church, the whole human community, and the well-being of the earth, our home.
​
Holy One, you entrust the message of the cross and the mission of the gospel to the church in every land. Guide the newly baptized and deepen the faith of all who follow Christ. Within the BC Synod, we pray for Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran in Langley - Rev. Kristen Steele and for St. Mark’s Lutheran in Vancouver - Rev. Ulrich Hossbach.
Merciful God, receive our prayer.
​
Holy Creator, you lavish creation with splendor, and we praise you for the gift of life. Teach us to live as wise stewards, sharing the earth’s resources with all inhabitants of this garden planet.
Merciful God, receive our prayer.
​
Holy Judge, your power is love, and you judge the nations by the measure of Christ. Free any who are unjustly accused or wrongly condemned. We pray for those in authority in all nations of the earth.
Merciful God, receive our prayer.
​
Holy Lover, you care for vulnerable young children, frail elders, and any who are sick . We pray for all who are affected by natural disasters brought about by climate change. Provide for their needs and relieve their suffering.
Merciful God, receive our prayer.
​
Holy Giver, you gather, forgive, and shape us as disciples of Christ. Nurture in us a spirit of patience and respect, that we may love one another as you love us.
Merciful God, receive our prayer.
​
Holy Saviour, you free us from the power of death. Lead and guide us until we come at last into the communion of all your saints in light.
Merciful God, receive our prayer.
​
Confident that the Holy Spirit receives our prayers and answers us, we commend all for whom we pray to God’s loving-kindness made known to us in Christ Jesus our Saviour.
Amen.
