In the name of the Father, 

and of the Son (+), 

and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Brothers and sisters, 

let us acknowledge our sins.

I confess to almighty God

and to you, my brothers and sisters,

that I have greatly sinned,

in my thoughts and in my words,

in what I have done and in what I have failed to do, 

through my fault, through my fault, 

through my most grievous fault; 

therefore I ask blessed Mary ever-Virgin, 

all the Angels and Saints,

and you, my brothers and sisters,

to pray for me to the Lord our God. 

Let us pray.

Grant, we pray, almighty God,

that we, who glory in the Heart of your beloved Son

and recall the wonders of his love for us,

may be made worthy to receive

an overflowing measure of grace

from that fount of heavenly gifts.

Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,

who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

For the Church, that we, the people sacred to the Lord, may be faithful to the covenant of love that binds us to Him.

We pray to the Lord.

Lord, hear our prayer.

That we may come to an even deeper knowledge of God’s love through the love we offer one another in His name.

We pray to the Lord.

Lord, hear our prayer.

That governments might collaborate in seeking for justice for all peoples.

We pray to the Lord.

Lord, hear our prayer.

For those who labor and are burdened, who are bereaved or in any distress, that God might comfort them by revealing the secrets of His love.

We pray to the Lord.

Lord, hear our prayer.

For all who have died, that they may be redeemed from destruction through God’s merciful love.

We pray to the Lord.

Lord, hear our prayer.

At the Savior’s command

and formed by divine teaching, we dare to say: 

Our Father, who art in heaven, 

hallowed be thy name;

thy kingdom come,

thy will be done 

on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread,

and forgive us our trespasses,

as we forgive those who trespass against us; 

and lead us not into temptation,

but deliver us from evil. Amen.

Let us pray.

May this sacrament of charity, O Lord, 

make us fervent with the fire of holy love, 

so that, drawn always to your Son,

we may learn to see him in our neighbor. 

Through Christ our Lord.  Amen.

O God, 

whose Only Begotten Son 

bore the weight of human suffering for our salvation, 

hear the prayers of your Church

for our sick brothers and sisters

and deliver us from this time of trial.

Open our ears and our hearts to the voice of your Son:

Bless all doctors and nurses, researchers and public servants;

give us the wisdom to do what is right 

and the faith to endure this hour,

that we might gather once again to praise your name 

in the heart of your Church, 

delivered from all distress and confident in your mercy.

Through Christ our Lord. Amen

May Almighty God bless us,

the Father (+),

and the Son, and the Holy Spirit.  Amen.
