Prayers Of The People
from Mayfair Heights United Methodist Church – November 16, 2025
Loving God, who watches over us like a parent, delighting in our happiness, weeping over all the ways we harm one another, guide us. Nurture us. Empower us to be your peacemakers and mercy-bringers in this world.
God, in your love,
Hear our prayers.
Merciful God, our world is full of war, violence, injustice, and oppression. As we are surrounded on all sides by misinformation, half-truths, and lies, give us courage to tell the truth of your love, to protect the innocent, and to resist evil in every way it presents itself.
God, in your love,
Hear our prayers.
Gracious God, our neighborhoods are full of people who are struggling. Struggling to make ends meet, struggling to find stability, struggling to find community. Empower us to notice, to reach out, and to love our neighbors as you have called us to love.
God, in your love,
Hear our prayers.
God of Hope, our lives are filled with so many reasons for despair. Loneliness abounds, uncertainty overwhelms, and suffering feels constant. Fill us with the warmth of your love and inspire us to extend a hand, a hug, a smile, a gesture of connection in a disconnected world.
God, in your love,
Hear our prayers.
In the name of the God who gives, receives, and extends Love to all. Amen.
Peace Be With You. – Paul
