Merciful and loving Father, look with immense compassion upon Grace, strengthening her for the treatment and test of her faith which lies ahead. Lord, You know her heart and the love of You it contains. Grant her an increase of faith and a spirit of thankfulness for the blessing of each day of her life.
Graciously surround her with doctors, nurses and others who reflect Your love to her. We pray that her surgery and subsequent treatment brings her relief from this insidious affliction. Give her the grace of accepting the changes which the operation and recovery will bring to her life.
Lord, may her family, loved ones and students join together to reassure her of their love and support. We beseech You to combine our prayers with those of Your Angels and Saints to form an unending petition for mercy upon her. Grant this, O Saving God, through Christ Jesus, Your only Son, Who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, One God for ever and ever. Amen! Alleluia!
