A PRAYER FOR OUR BISHOP AND OUR BISHOP-ELECT
Gracious Father, we thank you for our bishop, Morris, and our bishop-elect, Shannon, for the leadership they have given to this diocese, and for their leadership in the days to come. Bless their families, and all whom they love, while helping them to realize the love that the people of this diocese have for them. As our days increase, help us all to be guided by your Holy Spirit, directed toward the path you would have each of us follow. We pray this in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. AMEN.

Lord, Jesus Christ:
You said, “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you” (John 14:27a).  We join our prayers to those of the people of Ukraine, who look to the heavens for peace and protection during this time of violence and oppression.  And we ask for your mercy, that it may change the hearts and minds of those who have chosen the path of destruction. Amen.
 
Dear Father,
Send down your blessings on law enforcement officers, firemen, and first responders. Grant them courage, wisdom, strength, and compassion in all their work. When the alarm sounds, let them faithfully serve you in their neighborhood. Amen.
  
Dear Lord,
Today, we pray for your peace. We pray that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard the hearts and minds of all health care workers.  We also ask for courage. Please, grant them your spirit of courage. Grant them a sound mind as they make decisions. We pray for all the physicians, nurses, and health care providers involved in this pandemic May they be blessed with the wisdom and grace needed to provide the best care possible. Amen.
