Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit;
as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen
Almighty God, through your only Son you overcame death
and opened to us the gate of everlasting life.
Grant that we who celebrate our Lord’s resurrection,
by the renewing of your Spirit,
arise from the death of sin to the life of righteousness;
through the same Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

God of eternity:
You are present with us because of Christ’s rising from the dead,
and you persist in lifting us to new life in him.
We bring to you our prayers for this world in need of resurrection.
Especially we pray
for the strengthening of our faith…
for an end to this disease…
for your hope to find the hearts of those who do not know you…
for your power and love to bring healing to our hearts, minds and bodies…
But Lord, not as we would have it, but may your will be done,
Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

Have mercy upon us, O God, according to your loving kindness.
