Pray for Communion
Praying for communion is a way to connect with God and ask Him for guidance and direction. Prayer is not only about asking for things; prayer is also about listening and being open to what He wants to tell us. When we pray, we should always have our eyes focused on Jesus and His love for us. We should never forget that He loves us unconditionally and desires nothing more than to give us eternal life.
We will print and place your prayer request on the Stone of Anointing; the place where Christ’ body was laid down after being removed from the crucifix and prepared for burial.
1. Communion
Communion is a sacrament given at Mass where bread and wine become the body and blood of Christ. In the same way, when we receive communion, we are receiving the body and blood of Jesus Christ. Through communion, we are able to experience the grace of salvation and forgiveness.
2. Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity who was sent by God to live inside Christians. The Holy Spirit helps us to understand God’s word and teaches us how to live according to his commandments. The Holy Spirit guides us and gives us power to do good works.
3. Confession
Confession is telling someone else about sin that we have committed. By confessing our sins, we are admitting them before God and asking him to forgive us. Confessing our sins means that we are no longer hiding them from God.
4. Baptism
Baptism is a ritual that symbolizes the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. At baptism, we are baptized in water and then sprinkled with holy oil. Afterward, we are given the name “Christian” and told to follow Jesus.
5. Eucharist
Eucharist is the celebration of the Last Supper between Jesus and His disciples. In the eucharist, we remember the sacrifice that Jesus made for us by eating bread and drinking wine.
6. Penance
Penance is confession and repentance. We need to repent of our sins and confess them to God. Repentance is saying sorry for something that we did wrong. If we don’t confess our sins, they continue to haunt us.
7. Pray for God’s guidance
God gives us wisdom and insight to make good decisions. We need to pray for His help and guidance before we take any action.
8. Ask for forgiveness
We should always ask for forgiveness if we have done something wrong. If we do not forgive ourselves, how can we expect others to forgive us?
9. Thank God for what He has given us
When we thank God for our blessings, we show gratitude towards Him for everything He has blessed us with.
10. Praise God for who he is
Praise God for his greatness and power. Let him know that we appreciate all that he does for us.
11. Give thanks
Thanking God shows that we value what He has done for us. When we give thanks, we express our appreciation for what He has done.
