Layperson's prayer during Mass

Composed by Aaron S. Robertson

A silent prayer for the layperson during Mass near the time for the Blessed Sacrament

My Lord, hear my prayers for everyone gathered here today in your name. I pray for deliverance from whatever troubles them in their personal or professional lives, or perhaps on their own faith journeys. Have mercy on us all, forgive us our sins, and allow us all to receive you in most Holy Communion. Give us the spiritual food and armor we all need to make good choices, better choices, that are more pleasing to you and more in line with our Father's will and expectations for us; the spiritual food and armor we all need to continue to fend off the harassment, taunts, and traps of Satan and his demon friends; the spiritual food and armor we all need to be of greater charity, all in the service of others and all for your glory. Wash away every blemish that diminishes our friendship with you, and bring us all closer to you and to one another. Amen.
