For the World into which God’s Christ was sent to show us the Way we are to live; we pray to the Lord. 

Show each of us the Truth and the Life You intend for all of us, Lord, and to help us live that life now; we pray to the Lord. 

For the Church in Your world, Lord, we pray for leaders at every level of Church and State and for a renewal of their Call to leadership; we pray to the Lord. 

Teach us how to listen with a heart like Jesus’ heart, in tune to the deep needs of all Your people; we pray to the Lord. 

For the newly elected leaders in the US and around the world; help leaders understand they are called to serve Your people in the world You love; we pray to the Lord. 

For the Poor and persecuted who bear the brunt of decisions made by our leaders; we pray to the Lord. 

Let justice reign down in every area where Your people are hurting, Lord; open hearts and change minds about sharing resources and wealth in Your world. 

For a change of heart in leaders who think first of themselves and their perceived need to stay in power; we pray to the Lord. 

Give leaders of every country in Your world hearts for their people and open their eyes to what needs to be done; we pray to the Lord. 

Help all of us understand what is needed in our places in Your world; so that, those who are underserved have a place at the table where decisions are made; we pray to the Lord. 

We ask You, Holy Spirit, to give all of us a deeper awakening to our Call as Christians to help those most in need; show all of us the Way; we pray to the Lord.
