Prayer Petitions For January 9, 2020

United in prayer with all of our brothers and sisters, we bless God and invoke his name:
Lord, show us your compassion.

Holy Father, we pray for those who know you only by the light of human reason,
— may they be enriched by the light of the Gospel as well.
Lord, show us your compassion.

Look with favor on all who live outside the Church as they seek liberation from the harsh constraints of human existence,
— may they discover Christ as the way, the truth and the life.
Lord, show us your compassion.

Help all who practice their faith in sincerity,
— may they attain to the marvelous light of your anointed one.
Lord, show us your compassion.

Keep pure the hearts of believers,
— may they see you more clearly at every moment.
Lord, show us your compassion.

Let your compassion be visible to those who have died,
— clothe them in the glory of your chosen people.
Lord, show us your compassion.
