8. I wonder what you heard in the Gospel today? What did the apostles ask Jesus to do? What difference can faith make to our lives? How can we help our faith to grow?

9. Faith helps us to pray and prayer helps us to believe. It is when we pray that the flickering flame of faith burns within our hearts more brightly. The flame fills our lives with the light of Christ so that we can see the way to follow him and warms our hearts with Christ’s love to share with the world.

10. The response is sung, Lord hear our prayer. We pray for all who hold and teach the Christian faith; may it be firmly rooted in our hearts and lives Lord in your mercy Lord hear our prayer… We pray for an end to hatred and fear in our world. May we work together to share the gift of Christ’s peace Lord in your mercy Lord hear our prayer… We pray for the poor and the hungry may we recognise and meet their needs. Lord in your mercy Lord hear our prayer…

11. The response is sung, Lord hear our prayer. We pray for the sick and all who are in pain; may their faith in God’s love bring them comfort and healing. Lord in your mercy Lord hear our prayer…

12. Knowing that our heavenly Father is listening, in the silence of our hearts let us share our unspoken prayers with Him.

13. Let us say this prayer together Loving Father Increase our faith and make our lives A perfect offering to you. We make these and all our prayers Through Jesus Christ your beloved Son Amen
