My sister serves as my Mom’s primary care giver, with much of the responsibility falling on her shoulders. Please pray for her strength and wellbeing, for patience. I offer these prayers for my sister, and for all caregivers.

God of Providence,
I need to remember that I am called upon to only do what I can. As I care for my loved one, grace me with the trust to rely on you as each day unfolds. Give me the strength to be strong in those times when my loved one becomes weaker and needs increased care. Give me clarity of vision for him/her as their own ability to think clearly eludes them. When my own vision is clouded by fatigue and frustration, give me respite moments so I will regain new energy to provide the care needed.

Creator God,
thank you for the sacredness of this ministry to be a caregiver. It is truly one of the most challenging and gratifying opportunities in my life. The days I want to return to a sense of normalcy are the days that my spirit needs to be fed. In the midst of caregiving, I turn to you to fill my soul with what is needed for the moment. Only you know the path that is marked out as I walk this journey with my loved one. Help me to trust you. May my caregiving be a blessing to the one I love and thank you for the blessing I have received as their caregiver. You are the source of all life and grace and I cannot do this alone.
 
Dear Lord please accept my heartfelt “amen” to angelhand’s devout prayers.
 
Dear Lord, in Jesus’ name please guide and strengthen the OP’s sister in her caregiving tasks.

Father please bless all care givers of this world. May thier acts as a caregiver influence others to seek Christ as their savior and walk in Christ and help sread the news of his word. In your name, Jesus amen!
 
O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fountain of Mercy for us, I trust in You!

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, Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst 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 our death, Amen.

Eternal Father, I offer you the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your Dearly Beloved Son, Our Lord, Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.

For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world. x10

Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and on the whole world.
 
Saint Michael, the archangel, defend us in battle, be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil, may God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do you, O’ Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God thrust into Hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who prowl about the world for the ruin of souls.

Amen.

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.

Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.

A Prayer for Family Caregivers

Come to me, all You who labor and are
burdened, and I will give You rest. Take
my yoke upon You and learn from me,
for I am meek and humble of heart; and
You will find rest for yourselves. For my
yoke is easy, and my burden light.
(Matthew 11:28-30)

Healer of souls and comforter of the weary, help
to lighten the burden of families who are caring
for their sick loved ones. Accompany them on
their journey and ease their anxiety and fears.

Surround them with the love and strength
of others, so they may experience the healing
presence of the communion of saints. We ask
this through the intercession of Our Lady
of Lourdes and in the name of Your Son, Jesus
and the Holy Spirit, now and forever. Amen.
