Prayer
In these exceptional times, we turn to the One who prays: “Holy Father, protect them in your name that you have given me, so that they may be one, as we are one.” Let your face shine upon your whole creation, O God. Incline your ear to your family. Protect all who are suffering in this time of pandemic, especially in Nepal, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, and the many countries experiencing new surges of COVID-19. Compassionate God, Hear our cry.
