Below is a COVID 19 Prayer written by Kerry Weber of America Magazine, I have modified it for daily prayer, I recommend you pray it during these stressed filled and difficult times.  The entire prayer unedited is, also, here for your prayerful consideration.






Modified version of a Coronavirus prayer:  
Jesus … you traveled through towns and villages “curing every disease and illness.”  Come to our aid now, in the midst of the global spread of the coronavirus, that we may experience your healing love.

Heal those who are sick with the virus …
Heal us from our fear …
Heal us from our pride ….
Jesus …  healer of all, stay by our side in this time of uncertainty and sorrow.

Be with those who have died from the virus.
Be with the families of those who are sick or have died.
Be with the doctors, nurses, researchers and all medical professionals who seek to heal and help those affected.
Be with the leaders of all nations [and] give them the [courage to work for the common good].

Jesus … stay with us [and] give us your peace.
Jesus … heal us.  Amen.

FAITH FAITH IN FOCUS [AMERICA MAGAZINE] 
A Coronavirus Prayer Kerry Weber, March 02, 2020
 

Jesus Christ, you traveled through towns and villages “curing every disease and illness.”
At your command, the sick were made well. Come to our aid now, in the midst of the
global spread of the coronavirus, that we may experience your healing love.
Heal those who are sick with the virus. May they regain their strength and health
through quality medical care.
Heal us from our fear, which prevents nations from working together and neighbors
from helping one another.
Heal us from our pride, which can make us claim invulnerability to a disease that knows
no borders.
Jesus Christ, you traveled through towns and villages “curing every disease and illness.” Come to
our aid now, that we may experience your healing love.
Jesus Christ, healer of all, stay by our side in this time of uncertainty and sorrow.
Be with those who have died from the virus. May they be at rest with you in your eternal
peace.
Be with the families of those who are sick or have died. As they worry and grieve,
defend them from illness and despair. May they know your peace.
Be with the doctors, nurses, researchers and all medical professionals who seek to heal
and help those affected and who put themselves at risk in the process. May they know
your protection and peace.
Be with the leaders of all nations. Give them the foresight to act with charity and true
concern for the well-being of the people they are meant to serve. Give them the wisdom
to invest in long-term solutions that will help prepare for or prevent future outbreaks.

May they know your peace, as they work together to achieve it on earth.
Whether we are home or abroad, surrounded by many people suffering from this illness
or only a few, Jesus Christ, stay with us as we endure and mourn, persist and prepare.
In place of our anxiety, give us your peace.
Jesus Christ, heal us.
