God of love, we know that you hear us when we call to you in our need.
In our greatest need, you gave us Jesus, your Son, as our Redeemer.

We ask you, in your love and mercy,
to hear our prayers in this hour of crisis and need:
to calm our hunger for the Eucharist,
and to sustain our faith in your promised resurrection

We ask this through your Son, Jesus Christ. Amen
