Fight poverty, one step at a time! Help bring hope to communities by walking for a cause. Team Caritas is raising funds to help those in need. We will be walking 14kms on 8 August on behalf of the millions of people who have to walk kilometres to fetch their water each day.

Prayers of intercession

Let us pray for the Church
in the world: that it may
fulfil its call to work in
the service of people
who are poor, bringing
compassion and hope
to those in need.
Lord, in your mercy...
For our government:
that it may listen to
us and take action
to improve conditions
for people who are poor,
so that all may live life
to the full.
Lord, in your mercy…
For a world transformed:
that people living in poverty may find
hope for a better future, as we take
action in solidarity with them.
Lord, in your mercy…
For our parish community:
that we may be inspired to continue
to work together in answer to God’s
call and to make a real difference
to the lives of people who are poor.
Lord, in your mercy…
