The ministry of Intercession is a very important role in the Christian life. Intercessory prayer is the act of praying on behalf of others. What a wonderful and exalted privilege we have in being able to come boldly before the throne of Almighty God with our prayers and requests. It is God’s desire that every believer be active in intercessory prayer.
Attendance at Mass is the greatest prayer of Intercession where we join our voices with Jesus in praise and petition before the Father. Jesus told the story how the persistence of a man knocking on the door got his request answered. Jesus often spent the night in prayer to His Father, and the continual message of Our Lady in various apparitions is: ‘Pray, pray, pray’.
The example of St. Monica pleading day and night for her son Augustine gives us great hope as to how God answers persistent prayer.
We invite you to be part of the work of Céilí Community by undertaking to remember us in prayer for the following intentions:
For an outpouring of the Holy Spirit on Community members and their work.
