That your Name may be glorified by all people.
We pray for all bishops, especially Sarah, the Archbishop of Canterbury designate; Sean our Presiding Bishop, Phil our bishop; all priests, especially Joseph our vicar; all deacons; and all religious.
That they may be faithful ministers of your Word and Sacraments.
We pray for Donald our president, Bob our governor, and for all who govern and hold authority in the nations of the world;
That there may be justice and peace on the earth.

We praise you for your saints who have entered into joy;
May we also come to share in your heavenly kingdom.
Let us pray for our own needs and those of others, especially all who are vulnerable to immigration enforcement, for those in hiding, and those who are detained. Shower your blessings upon those who help them. Call to account all who do them harm, and all who allow hatred to grow in their hearts.

Holy God, our righteous judge, daily your mercy surprises us with everlasting forgiveness. Strengthen our hope in you, and grant that all the peoples of the earth may find their glory in you, through Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord.
Amen.
