For the peace of the whole world, for the stability of the holy churches of God, and for the unity of all, let us pray to the Lord. 

Lord, have mercy! 

For Japan, for the president, His Excellency Fumio Kishida, and for all those in public service, let us pray to the Lord. 

Lord, have mercy! 

For Kanazawa and Ishikawa, and for every city and land, and for the faithful who live in them, let us pray to the Lord. 

Lord, have mercy! 

For those struck by this disastrous earthquake, for those still trapped in the rubble, and for quick aid and safety to all those affected by this horrible plight, let us pray to the Lord.

Lord, have mercy! 

For those who traveling to rescue those in trouble, by land, sea, and air, for all the injured, the suffering, the displaced and homeless, let us pray for their relief and salvation, let us pray to the Lord.

Lord, have mercy! 

For their deliverance from all affliction, wrath, danger, and necessity, let us pray to the Lord.

Lord, have mercy!
