Gracious God, you encircle us with care. In trust we pray: 

God, in your saving love, hear our prayer.  

Heed the cries of those who suffer loneliness, loss, or grave disappointment. 

God, in your saving love, hear our prayer.  

Safeguard all who gather to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day this weekend. 

God, in your saving love, hear our prayer.  

Inspire and prosper efforts to decrease the production, access, and use of weapons. 

God, in your saving love, hear our prayer.  

Our Father . . .  

May God give us a spirit of wisdom and revelation and lead us to know the riches of glory that are ours in Christ Jesus. Amen.
