On Palm Sunday, join Mary Beth, our Senior Manager of Volunteer Mobilization, in this Prayers of the People to highlight the hope that our fellow New Yorkers need.
'We come before you, giving thanks and praise for your amazing love. This Lenten season, we remember how you came to earth, suffered, died, and rose from the grave, declaring victory over death.'
Lord, we bring before you the needs of the church, the world, and all in need. For those feeling hopeless and wondering, “Where are you, God?”: reveal yourself to us. Come to us in our time of desperation.
