Father of goodness and love, 
hear our prayers for the sick 
members of our community and 
for all who are in need.

Amid mental and physical suffering 
may they find consolation in your
healing presence.

Show your mercy as you close wounds,
cure illness, make broken bodies 
whole and free downcast spirits.

May these special people find 
lasting health and deliverance, 
and so join us in thanking you 
for all your gifts.

We ask this through the Lord Jesus 
who healed those who believed.

In Jesus' name, Amen!
