Andrew, make sure to give us a heads up as it approaches!
Father of mercy and healing, look with Your immense love upon Andrew, and carry him in the palm of Your Hand as he faces this difficult and time-consuming surgery. Out of your unfathomable love of man, you have graciously allowed medical technology to advance to the point that the beloved heart which You alone created may be restored to health. We ask You to bless him, sustain him and grant him doctors, nurses and technicians who reflect Your love to those around them. May his family and loved ones support him with prayer and fellowship throughout his surgery and recovery. In Your continuing mercy, join our prayers with those of the Angels and Saints to form an unending petition for the healing of Andrew’s heart. We ask this through Christ, our Lord, Who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, One God for ever and ever. Amen! Alleluia!
