Petitions of Prayer
… and all others in our parish and community in need of healing, physical or spiritual.
Names appearing on the Prayer list come from hospital visitation lists, emails to [email protected], and from telephone calls made to the Parish Office. We are aware that there are many others in the parish and community who are suffering and, therefore, we ask those who are praying to include “and all in our parish and community who are in need of healing, physical or spiritual”. We regret that space does not allow us to list the names of each and everyone in the bulletin each week.
All of the requests for prayers remain on our list for four weeks. If notified, we will extend the time frame.
