			Intercessions
PRIEST: As we continue to celebrate the Resurrection, confident that Christ intercedes for us at the right hand of the Father, we make our prayers in his name: 

READER: Martin, our bishop, that he may be blessed with the gifts of integrity, courage and humility as he feeds the flock that the Lord has entrusted to his care.
Lord in your mercy.
Hear our prayer.

For the leaders of nations, that they may work for the good of all and strive for peace, justice and the flourishing of all humanity. 
Lord in your mercy.
Hear our prayer.

For our own parish community, that we will always provide a welcome for the Lord, in the many guises in which we meet him.
Lord in your mercy.
Hear our prayer.

For the sick and the suffering, the homeless and the housebound, that Jesus, the risen Saviour, may give them grace and strength. For…
Lord in your mercy.
Hear our prayer.

For the departed, that they may share in Christ’s risen life. For …
Lord in your mercy.
Hear our prayer.

In a moment of silence, we offer our own petitions.

We join our prayers with our Blessed Mother.

Hail Mary…

PRIEST: God our Father, in Christ you have made us your daughters and sons. Give us the grace, we pray, to accept and live to the full the new life you have given us. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen
