God our Father and Creator, You bestow on us gifts
and talents to develop and use in accord with Your will.
Grant to Chelale’s brother-in-law through the intercession
of St. Joseph the worker, as model and guide, employment
and work, that he may, with dignity, provide for those who
depend on him for care and support.
Grant him the opportunities to use his energy and
his talents and abilities for the good of all,
and the glory of Your name.
Grant this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
Heavenly Father, You are the great physician.
Chelale turns to You in her sickness and
asks for Your healing. Put Your hand upon
her and let health and wholeness flow
into her. Help her to remember, in
this time of vulnerability, her utter
dependence on You. She commits
herself to Your loving arms.
Amen
Bless the Lord, O my soul…and forget not all
his benefits: who forgiveth all thine iniquities;
who health all thy diseases. (Psalm 103:2-3)
