Prayers for the season of EASTER

Rejoicing in the wonder of new life in Jesus Christ, let us pray for the church, the world, and all of God's creation.
Shepherd your church, O God. Hearing your voice, may leaders and assemblies share your abundant goodness through worship and service. God of life, hear our prayer.
Lead the nations, O God. Heeding your call to hold all things in common, may communities devote themselves to the dignity of every human life and equity among all peoples. God of life, hear our prayer.
Shelter the homeless, O God. Trusting in your wise providing, may the whole church and international organizations work toward the eradication of homelessness and poverty. God of life, hear our prayer.
Restore the needy, O God. Led to your refreshing mercy, we pray for the lost, the abused, the sick, the hungry, the oppressed, the grieving, and the dying. God of life, hear our prayer.
Welcome the stranger, O God. Hosted at your table, may we reach out to those estranged from this assembly, from our families, and from our communities. God of life, hear our prayer.
Prepare a home, O God. Dwelling in your grace, we give thanks for all who have died in the faith (especially). Baptized into the death and resurrection of Christ, may we all feast at your heavenly table. God of life, hear our prayer.
Accept these prayers and the prayers of our hearts, O God, for the sake of the crucified and risen one, Jesus Christ, our redeemer. Amen.
