Almighty God, we give You thanks, for You are the Creator of all life and goodness. We praise You for the world You have made for us to build up and enjoy.

Loving God, help us to be faithful heralds of Healing and Hope. Grant us the awareness of the healing needs of those around us and the compassion to respond willingly to those needs. We ask this through Christ, our Healer and Source of all Hope.

 Amen
