COVID 19 Pandemic Prayer
“Lord, listen to my prayer: turn your ear to my appeal.” [Psalm
143]
God, You are our refuge and our hope, we turn to you during this
Covid 19 pandemic and plead for Your intercession.
In Your mercy and Your compassion “… grant eternal rest to the
dead, comfort to mourners, healing to the sick ….” [Collect from Mass Time in
Pandemic].
Grant strength to the first responders and medical
personnel. End this coronavirus
scourge. Bring Your light to all who
wander in the darkness of this pandemic and give each of us hope in Your
eternal love today and every day. Amen. [Dcn. George Kelly]
Thursday of Holy Week
Veronica Tenderly Wipes My Face
Mary saw a woman squeeze past the crowd and the guards; she took
her veil and wiped the face of my Son. An act of love, care and compassion amid
the sneering, jeering and anger of the crowd looking at the spectacle.
“The guards … pulled her back.”
But Veronica’s singular act of kindness touched my Son’s very soul and
gave Him hope for the gruesome plight that awaited Him.
“… I walked on in faith, silently.”
We are called to walk in faith.
Lord Jesus, as I walk in your steps, please bring an end to the
COVID 19 Pandemic. Amen.
May God Be Praised!
