Our elderly parish priest here has been admitted into hospital today

.He has tirelessly given
so much on his own here,taking care of his flock and the wider community.
Could good people please pray for his recovery?God bless and thank you.
He sounds like a wonderful priest, Greenfields. May our Lord Jesus Christ be with him.
In the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit:
Kind and compassionate Jesus, we ask Your tender mercy and grace for Your faithful servant, who now lies sick in the hospital. Throughout his life he has dutifully answered Your call. He committed his life to You and, with dedication and perseverance, performed every task on behalf of his flock, whom You charged to his clerical care. Today it is he in great need of you, the great Healer and Shepherd. Watch over him, Lord. Grant him comfort and peace. Remind him of Your promise to be with those who serve You, even to the end of the world. Assure him of Your presence and swaddle him in the folds of Your depthless, divine love.
Grant these our prayers, O Father, for Jesus Christ’s sake, our only Mediator and Advocate, to whom, with Thee and the Holy Ghost, be all honour and glory…
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, JESUS. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of death…
Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil; for Thine is the kingdom, power, and glory, forever and ever…
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost. As it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be, world without end…
Amen.
