Heavenly Father,

We pray for a quick end to the Russian War on Ukraine particularly this UN International Day of Peace. We take special notice of the coming Autumn this World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation. We ask Your Safety as we explore its beauty with our Fall activities. May employers and employees treat each other fairly and with respect as we observe Labor Day. We implore Your Blessings on all teachers and students as they return to school and catechism class. Notably on Patriot Day, we pray for the fallen and the ill. Please share Your Wisdom on researchers seeking cures for disease. Sanctify Your priests on Priesthood Sunday and always. May there be new vocations to all religious life. In honor of the Most Holy Name of Mary, her Nativity, her title as Our Lady of Sorrows, Your Archangels and Jesus’ Exaltation of the Holy Cross, we ask these,

Amen.
