Prayer for a Cure

For those seeking a cure for
the Corona virus
Father of mercies, we thank you for all who care for the sick.
When they diagnose, give them patience.
When they protect the vulnerable, give them your protection.
When they work to heal, give them strength.
When they comfort, give them consolation.
When they are tired, give them rest.
When they are discouraged, bring them your hope.
May we welcome and respect them
as we support one another in this time of trial.
Come, Holy Spirit, enlighten the
minds of women and men of medical
science who are working to find a
solution to this viral infection. Guide
their research and help them discover
what you provide in creation, sure ways
of control, protection, inoculation
and healing. Strengthen them in their
tiring work and enrich in them the
virtue of hope. Amen.
