Question about prayer intention lists

[danielsisk619]

There seems to be so many people a causes that need our prayers that I tend to loose track of them all. Because of this I’m thinking about putting together a “Prayer Intention List.”

If you use one please tell me how you utilize it.

Thanks

I have a list that I keep in my prayerbook. I have it on computer and update it from time to time. It’s a long list, so I group it into categories such as:

• Those suffering from physical or mental illness
• Deceased loved ones
• World issues, peace, natural disasters, etc.
• Pro-life intentions
• Conversion of loved ones
• Priests, bishop(s), Pope, religious, vocations
• Family members
• Government officials

Each category has specific names or intentions under it (sometimes I use initials or a code name to protect the identity in case the list were to fall into the wrong hands).

It helps me remember those I’ve promised to pray for. I used to use it daily; sometimes I would pray individually (if briefly) for each one on the list; sometimes I would send up a general prayer for everyone on the list; sometimes I would concentrate on a particular area.

I don’t use it regularly at the moment, but I expect to go back to it from time to time.

Keep a binder with name, date, and reason. Seems to work just fine for me.

I have a huge list of everyone and anything that needs prayers. and I say, Lord, please hear all of the intentions on my prayer list and grant them. Thank you.

Amen
