Prayers for Sunday 26th July 2026
God has created the whole world and all the people, animals, plants and other things in it. There are so many treasures in our world for us all to share.
Each one of us is a treasure made by God. We are all very special, no matter who we are or where in the world we live.
and so we pray together:
Let us pray for our bishops, our priests and all who tell others about the kingdom of heaven, that they may show the love of God too.
Lord’ in your mercy…
We pray for world leaders that they may help protect God’s world and make sure that all people have what they need to live free from poverty.
Lord, in your mercy…
We pray for our brothers and sisters throughout the world that we may treasure each other and work together so that all people may have their fair share of the good things God gives us. Let us pray for people who do not have enough to eat or a safe home.
Lord, in your mercy…
We pray for our parish, families and friends that we may care for God’s world and all the treasures in it, so that all people may enjoy them and will know what is really important now and in the future.
Lord, in your mercy…
Let us pray for people in our parish who are sick and those people who are missing someone they love.
Lord, in your mercy …
Lord, help us to remember that you are our most valuable treasure, and to use wisely the gifts you have given us. We thank you for the treasures of creation.
We are all precious treasure in the eyes of God. Help us not to take more than we need so all your people may live free from poverty.
Guide us to seek the treasure of your Kingdom and live our lives in love and peace.
Merciful Father, accept these prayers………
