Prayers for the Week:
· For those in authority, such as Queen Elizabeth and her representatives; Prime Minister Scott Morrison and members of parliament; Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk and state parliamentarians; and Mayor Paul McVeigh and local councillors; that they would have the wisdom to look beyond the here and now and plan for future generations
· For the Church, LCAQD; that it may be faithful to the tradition which it has received from the apostles
· For the pastors Bishop John Henderson, District Bishop Mark Vainikka; Pastor Joel Pukallus and all pastors; for the preaching of the word of God, that Christ may be made known
· For the poor, that they may receive the kingdom of God
· For the hungry, that they may be filled
· For those who mourn, that their tears may be replaced with laughter
· For those who are persecuted for Jesus' sake, that they may rejoice
· For those who are rich, that they may seek the true reward of heaven
· For those who fill themselves at the expense of others, that they may learn generosity
