God, our rock, salvation lies in you alone. In peace we pray: 

God, in your steadfast love, hear our prayer.  

Shatter our idols, and lead us to put our trust in you.  

God, in your steadfast love, hear our prayer.  

Inspire your Church’s responses to secularism and the needs of the faithful. 

God, in your steadfast love, hear our prayer.  

Pour your healing spirit upon those who have suffered bullying, betrayal, or abuse. 

God, in your steadfast love, hear our prayer.  

Our Father . . .  

May the God of all hopefulness fill our hearts with Easter joy and gladness, through Jesus, the peace of God. Amen.
