All Souls
November 2nd, 2025
Our God is a God of life, whose love and mercy is open to all people. With confidence in his care for us, we present our needs before him.
- For the spread of the Gospel, that we may take seriously the call to evangelize, let us pray to the Lord.
- For all bishops, priests and deacons: that they may guide us well in the ways of the Kingdom, let us pray to the Lord.
- For our government officials: that they may enact policies that more and more align with the values of the Kingdom, let us pray to the Lord.
- For a return to civility in our political discussions and an end to all divisions and discord, let us pray to the Lord.
- For an end to the culture of violence in our country and for the victims of that violence, let us pray to the Lord.
- For peace throughout the world, and for the success of efforts to end the conflicts in Gaza and the Ukraine, let us pray to the Lord.
- We’ll take a moment in silent prayer now for the intentions of the persons around us… let us pray to the Lord.
- For all the sick, and for those who care for them, remembering especially…

…let us pray to the Lord.
- For those who have gone before us, marked with the sign of faith, remembering especially Richard Peck, Jason Arthur Maxwell, Sand Bruckner, Fr. Howard Vogan—and for all those whose names are written in our Book of Remembrance, let us pray to the Lord.
Merciful God, you desire to gather all people to the banquet of your Kingdom. Hear our prayers for all the faithful departed and help us to live in Hope. Grant all our petitions, for we ask all this through Christ, our Lord. AMEN.
