Saturday  |  May 28, 2016  |  18:00 PM

+ For the Church, the Body of Christ: that we will deepen our devotion to the Eucharist which gives life to the world.  Jesus, Bread of Heaven, we pray.

+ May the redemptive power of Christ's Eucharistic sacrifice extend to the hearts and minds of all those who govern.  Jesus, Bread of Heaven, we pray.

+ As your presence feeds us, may we take your presence out into the world for the feeding of the world.  Jesus, Bread of Heaven, we pray.

+ May we remember that in the breaking of the bread and the drinking of the wine we become aware once again that you are with us.  Jesus, Bread of Heaven, we pray.

+ Help us to live with our hearts in tune to your abundance, the abundance of life itself, and not to dwell in scarcity of spirit.  Jesus, Bread of Heaven, we pray.

+ For the grace to adore the presence of Christ in the Blessed Sacrament.  Jesus, Bread of Heaven, we pray.

+ For all those who are sick especially Charlene Collora; Mike Finn; Terry Casey; Judy Casey; and Maleen Adkins, granddaughter of Mary Body.  We also pray for those who have died, especially Marilyn Selby, Fran Cronin, and Deacon John LaRussa.  Jesus, Bread of Heaven, we pray.

+ In thankfulness for all that is written in our Parish Book of Thanksgiving.  We pray also for the intentions written in the Parish Book of Intercessions and those we hold in the silence of our hearts.  Jesus, Bread of Heaven, we pray.
