Loving God, in St. Lawrence you teach us how to sow seed on good ground. Nourish our faith, and receive this prayer: 

God, hear us.  

Make your Church attentive to those who live in poverty, are marginalized, or are alienated in any way. 

God, hear us.  

Instill leaders of nations and all who seek election with wisdom, compassion, and honesty.  

God, hear us.  

Strengthen and uphold all who suffer persecution for the Gospel. 

God, hear us.  

Our Father . . .  

May God strengthen our faith and lead us to rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory, through Jesus our salvation. Amen.
