Prayers of the faithful
Celebrant: On this holy day, the power of Christ’s resurrection
fills the world with new life. With confidence let us turn in prayer
to God who raised his son from the dead and gave us a living
hope.
For the Church and for those newly baptised, that we may
rejoice in the raising of Christ who has opened for us the gates
of eternal life….Lord, hear us.
For persecuted Christians and for all those experiencing
oppression and injustice in our world. May the darkness in their
lives give way to the light and hope of Easter joy….Lord, hear
us.
For the precious gift of life, through which we come to know and
love God, that it may always be reverenced and respected at
every stage of existence….Lord, hear us.
For the gift of God’s creation, that all living things upon the
earth, our common home, may be treated with care and
respect…..Lord, hear us.
For the sick and housebound and all those wounded in mind or
spirit, that they may have new life and healing….Lord, hear us.
Celebrant: God of glory, as we celebrate with joy the
Resurrection of your Son, make us faithful to you in all that we
say and do. May we live the new life that you have given us to
the full. Through Jesus Christ our
risen Lord who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit.
God forever and ever. Amen.
