Prayer Intentions

One of the duties of members of the Confraternity of Ss. Peter & Paul is to pray for the intentions of all members.  It is also one of the benefits of belonging to the Confraternity, as your intentions will receive the combined prayers of our other members.

For this reason, you are invited to submit your requests for special intentions to the Secretary who will post them on this page.  Members should check in here regularly to note the particular intentions for which their prayers are requested.  The particular intentions for each month will be distributed our e-mail network.  Please note that the prayer requests will not normally mention individuals or churches by name (unless requested to do so), in order to protect the recipients of your prayers from unnecessary embarrassment or unwanted attention.

This page is divided into two sections: the first section is for more urgent prayers which are needed at the present time, while the second part includes the intentions of the Confraternity which never change.

Urgent petitions which have been added or altered since the last monthly update are in bold red typeface.
