Prayers for Recovery

One of our young mothers was at the hospital last night undergoing testing (CAT scan and upper body testing) after being struck forcibly by large Clydesdale horse quickly lifting its head and connecting with her chin and head and throwing her into a fence. She is in great pain and has a concussion. They are very concerned. Please pray for God’s mercy and healing to be with her and comfort to be with all of her family.

She is at home now recovering. Please continue your prayers for her and her family.

“O Holy Father, heavenly Physician of the body and soul, Who hast sent Thine Only-begotten Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, to heal ailments and deliver us from death; do Thou heal this mother of all suffering, and restore her to health by the grace of Thy Divine Son, through the intercessions of our Most Holy Queen Ever-virgin Mary, the Mother of God, and all the saints. For Thou art the Fountain of all cure, O Lord, and we give thanks to Thee, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, now and forever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.”

“O God, our help in time of need, Who are just and merciful, and Who inclines to the supplications of His people. Look down upon this family and have mercy on them and deliver them from the trouble that now besets them. I pray to you to grant them Your divine helping grace, and endow them with patience and strength to endure their hardships.

To You, our only hope and refuge, we flee for relief and comfort, trusting in Your infinite love and compassion, that in due time you will turn distress into comfort. We then shall rejoice and exalt and praise Your Holy Name, O Father, Son and Holy Spirit, both now and forever and to the ages of ages. Amen.”
