Prayer for Grace’s healthcare workers and first responders

God, our peace and our strength, we pray for our nation and the world as we face new uncertainties around coronavirus. Protect the most vulnerable among us, especially all who are currently sick or in isolation. Grant wisdom, patience, and clarity to health care workers, especially as their work caring for others puts them at great risk. Guide us as we consider how best to respond in our families, congregations, workplaces, and communities. Give us courage to face these days not with fear, but with compassion, concern, and acts of service.

We ask your blessing and protection upon our healthcare workers and first-responders….

Marianne C., Cristen C., Darius C., Sandra G., Lena G., Sarah H., Tammy J., David M., Susan M., Mary M., Adam M., Susan O.,
Jamie O., Jan S., Kristen S., Rhonda S.
