These prayers are exactly what their name suggests – prayers of the gathered faithful. In praying this prayer, the faithful are carrying out their role of praying for the entire world as well as for the needs of the local community. No two congregations will have exactly the same prayers, since their perception of the world's needs and of the local community will vary. Therefore they are written anew for each Sunday and weekly celebrations.

For the interest of people in South Australia, Saturday, June 13, marks the 180th anniversary of the first Mass celebrated in a crockery store on East Terrace in Adelaide by Father William Ullathorne, Vicar General of Sydney. Regards Maurice
