Prayer for the Sick

My Uncle Frankie is in hospital for three weeks now. He has undergone surgery but is not making much progress. Our thoughts and prayers are with him and our families as we hope that he will be restored to good health.

Also my niece (my Godchild) Barshni has not been well for the past two weeks, having a high temperature and headaches that doctors could not find the cause of. We are praying for your speedy recovery.


PRAYER FOR THE SICK
Father of goodness and love, hear our prayers for the sick members of our community and for all who are in need. Amid mental and physical suffering may they find consolation in your healing presence. Show your mercy as you close wounds, cure illness, make broken bodies whole and free downcast spirits. May these special people find lasting health and deliverance, and so join us in thanking you for all your gifts. We ask this through the Lord Jesus who healed those who believed. Amen.
