Lord, hear our prayer:

Father, we thank you for every person whose life is committed to changing lives and bringing healing and wholeness to those whose lives are broken; for all those through whom you reach out with love and compassion; for those who care for us when we are hurting and for those who try to understand us when we feel lost; for those who hold us when we feel empty, and for those who lift us when we are down. Father, we thank you for those who give of themselves, their skills and their energy that others might know what it means to be healed. Thank you for the wisdom and knowledge your Holy Spirit gives so that health might be ours, in Christ Jesus, we give thanks.

Amen.
