Prayers and Intercessions	?
Christ is the head and we are the body. Let us always give praise to our master, who came to serve all and do good for all. Humbly and faithfully, we ask him: - Come, Lord, to your family. Lord, lend your strength to the bishops and priests of your Church, who share your task as head and as shepherd. Let them lead all men to the Father through you. Send your angel to accompany travellers, keeping body and soul safe from the traps that await them. Teach us to serve men like you, who came to serve, not to be served. Make every human community a place where brother helps brother; may your presence make it like a city built on rock. Take pity on all the dead, and bring them into the light of your presence.

Lord, lend your strength to the bishops and priests of your Church, who share your task as head and as shepherd.: Let them lead all men to the Father through you.
Send your angel to accompany travellers,: keeping body and soul safe from the traps that await them.
Teach us to serve men: like you, who came to serve, not to be served.
Make every human community a place where brother helps brother;: may your presence make it like a city built on rock.
Take pity on all the dead,: and bring them into the light of your presence.

Today's readings (Gospel) focused on the light and the darkness. In what ways are we treating one another here? Are we acting as though we are walking toward the light and love of God? Or are we walking toward the darkness and sin of Satan?
