Let’s pray one for the other!
Let’s mention in our prayers the living, the dead, our friends and enemies and all those who deserve our prayer: parents, brothers, benefactors, leaders of the world and church, those who helped us and those who’ve asked us to pray for them.
According to our Christian duty, after we pray for ourselves, we should pray one for the other, as St. Apostle Jacob advises us: “Pray one for the other so you may cure, as mighty is the prayer of the righteous” (Jacob 6.16). Let’s mention in our prayers the living, the dead, our friends and enemies and all those who deserve our prayer: parents, brothers, benefactors, leaders of the world and church, all those who helped us and those who’ve asked us to pray for them.
