Prayer 

Loving God, 

We pray for all those who are suffering because of the coronavirus, may they know your healing power. 

When we are afraid for ourselves and our loved ones, give us your strength and courage. 

When we feel alone and isolated, reassure us with a sense of your presence. Give wisdom to those in authority and may our community work together for the good of all. We give thanks for those who care for others and ask you to bless them in all they do. We ask this in the name of Jesus, healer and physician.  Amen
