Prayers of the Faithful for Tenth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Sunday | Liturgical Color: Green

Readings: Gn 3:9-15 · 2 Cor 4:13—5:1 · Mk 3:20-35 (Lectionary 89)

The readings in brief: After the fall, God calls to the man, where are you? and tells the serpent that the woman's offspring will strike at its head. Saint Paul writes that though the body wears out we are renewed inwardly each day, for what is unseen is eternal. Jesus, accused of acting by the power of Beelzebul, replies that a divided house cannot stand; whoever does God's will is his brother, sister and mother.

Introduction (priest): Gathered as one family in Christ, let us pray to the Father for the Church, for the world and for all who are in need.

Concluding prayer (priest): God of mercy, you never turn away those who hope in you. Receive these prayers and answer them according to your love. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
