If I fail in speech,
I pray You will teach
me kind words to speak.

Be my guide.
Help me to be aware
Of all that lies before, behind and around me.

Give us an abundance of patience as we learn to juggle our teaching, sanitizing, distancing and masking, while trying to be attentive to the needs of our students.

Embrace these students and teachers with your love.

Almighty God, as they walk the halls of sickness, help them to be a healing presence

May this layer of protection never be a separation of compassion.
With so many sick, help us to give quality when unable to give time.

May we see and touch every patient as if it were you.

Lord Jesus, You only have us,
to stand in for You. Make ours Your healing touch. Make ours the words You’d speak.
Make our outreach to families and loved ones the comfort and hope You’d give.
Let us be Your love.

Protect us from plummeting into the social darkness of racism, poverty and despair that a pandemic can cause.
Aid our global community as it seeks to share resources, human skills and the knowledge needed to eradicate the virus.

Breathe in God and breathe out love.
Delight in the beauty that surrounds you each day.

Pour into us unimaginable love and ready us
to nurture the children You entrust to our care.

Heal those who are sick. Restore them to full health.
