God of infinite goodness, your wonderful works cannot be measured. In hope we pray to you: God, in your compassion, show us mercy. 

Help your Church to recognize, appreciate, and celebrate the rich diversity of gifts in her members.  

     God, in your compassion, show us mercy. 

Favor and bless those who manage, volunteer, or are served in food kitchens and shelters. 

     God, in your compassion, show us mercy. 

Fulfill the hope of everlasting life for all the faithful departed. 

     God, in your compassion, show us mercy. 

Our Father . . . 

May the Word of God dwell in us richly as we teach and admonish one another, by the wisdom of the Holy Spirit and with gratitude to God. Amen.
