St. Joseph's House

St. Joseph House is looking for people to grocery shop for December. Please reach out to Meredith Halter at mhalter@rochester.rr.com.

We entrust into your unfailing care, Merciful God...

Those for whom our prayers have been requested: Alan, Tom, Jeff, Ruth, Donna, Edward, Bob, Barbara, Paula, Amelia, Louis, Scott, Ella, Matthew, Dean, Diane, Bill, and Tim.

Our nation and the world: the President, Congress, and Supreme Court; our Governor, Mayor, and the leaders of the communities from which we come; members of our military at home and abroad; for all those elected or appointed to positions of public trust, and, for peace throughout our world, especially, in Israel and Palestine.

With thanksgiving: our health care professionals, first responders, essential workers, and farmworkers.

Those who have died and those whom we love but see no longer.

Almighty and eternal God, ruler of all things in heaven and earth: Mercifully accept the prayers of your people, and strengthen us to do your will; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

O God, our heavenly Father, make the door of St. Paul's Church wide enough to receive all who need love and fellowship and loving care, and narrow enough to shut out all envy, pride and uncharitableness. Make its threshold smooth enough to be no stumbling block to children, but strong enough to turn back the tempter's power. 

O heavenly Father, make the door of St. Paul's a gateway to your eternal kingdom; bless every member and worker; may all that we do and say be done and said to your honor and glory and the spreading of your kingdom. May we continue to be forever yours and daily increase through the Holy Spirit in love and service to others; through Christ our Lord. Amen.

The Discernment & Nominating Committee for the Ninth Bishop

Please continue to pray for the search process:

Almighty and ever-living God, source of all wisdom and understanding, be present with those who take counsel in the Discernment and Nominating Committee for the choosing of a new Bishop for this Diocese. Teach them in all things to seek first your honor and glory. Guide them to perceive what is right and grant them both the courage to pursue it and the grace to accomplish it, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
