Beloved, let us love one another, because love is from God; everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. (1 John 4:7)
Hear our prayers for those in emergency medicine. By your healing power, grant them quick minds and skillful hands. Strengthen them in times of trauma. In quiet times, give them rest and assurance of the value of their work. Keep them ever prepared for the work you have called them to do, for your mercy’s sake.
Almighty and eternal God, from whose love we cannot be parted even by death, hear our prayers and thanksgivings for your servant Deaconess Midtown Hospital Staff.
For although we no longer feel the touch of your faithful departed, fulfill in them, we pray, the purposes of your love and bring us, with them, to your eternal joy.
All this we ask in the name of Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
