God I offer myself to you, to build with me and to do with me as thou wilt.

A Prayer For All People
A Prayer For All People
by St. John Chrysostom (Hovhaness Vosgeperan)
Remember, O Lord, this city where we dwell and every other city and country, and all the faithful who dwell in them.
Remember, O Lord, all who travel by land or water, all who labor under sickness or slavery. Remember them, and give them health and safety.
Remember, O Lord, all in your Holy Church who bring forth good fruit, are rich in good works and remember the poor.
Grant your mercy and loving-kindness to us all, and grant that we may praise and glorify your great and glorious name with one mouth and one heart; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, now and forever. Amen.

Into Your Holy Hands
Offered by Mariné Saakyan
October 29, 2025
O God, You are Almighty. I lift up my soul to You, so that I may live the abundance of Your gifts and Your divine will. I have clearly understood that the true life abides in you. And each moment I close my eyes of my soul and abstain how to ring your life-giving words on my lips then darkness in prisons my whole being.Fill my soul, O God, with Your divine wisdom so that I may always enlighten my spirituality with Your love and direct my steps toward You. Therefore, I surrender my life into your Holy Hands so that You may armor my spirit with Your divine messages.
- Archbishop Hovnan Derderian

Instrument of your Peace
Offered by Sylvia Baghoumian
22 October 2025
Lord, make me an instrument of your peacewhere there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy.
O divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console,
to be understood as to understand,
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
-St. Francis of Assisi

For World Peace
offered by Maria Hamparian
October 15, 2025
Dear Heavenly Father, you created the amazing world that we live in, but human hatred and evil have destroyed the peace you intended. Countries are at war, while citizens are tormented and living in desolation. People hate who they are taught to hate. Your beautiful world is in turmoil and only you can bring the peace we need. World peace feels impossible, but nothing is impossible for you. Breathe the peace of the Holy Spirit into the hearts of world leaders. Open the eyes of lawmakers and government officials to see you in the face of others. Guide them to create laws that value human life and to see the benefit of all nations to coexist in peace. I know world peace is possible in the name of your son, my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.

Our Father
Offered by Ripsik Hakopian
October 8, 2025
“Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation.
but deliver us from the evil one.
14 For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.
