Let us open our hearts to God to present him with all our needs and those of all men and women of the earth, with the certainty that He hears and welcomes us.

Father, teach us to pray.

• For all the followers of Jesus, so that we may be conscious of the importance of looking after and paying special attention to our relationship with God.

Father, teach us to pray.

• For our parishes, our religious communities, our monasteries, so that they may be places to learn and enjoy prayer.

Father, teach us to pray.

• For all those who suffer for any reason, so that our proximity and prayer may be a help and consolation for them in their difficulties.

Father, teach us to pray.

• For all our loved ones who now live with God, so that their memory may stimulate and help us to live in solidarity with those who surround us.

Father, teach us to pray.

Father, Jesus told us that everything we asked in his name you would give it to us. Because we believe in You we thank you and ask you to attend to our needs.
