many lives.

with love

Grant them health in mind and
body,
strength in their commitment,
protection from the disease.
11. We pray for those afflicted.
May they be restored to health.
Protect those who care for them.
Grant eternal rest to those who have died.
Give us the grace in these trying times
to work for the good of all
and to help those in need.
May our concern and compassion for each
other see us through this crisis
and lead us to conversion and holiness.
12. Grant all these through our Lord Jesus
Christ your Son
who lives and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,

16. St. Benedict, you were a man of peace.
You walked the path of peace your whole
life long
and led all who came to you into the
ways of peace.
Help us, St. Benedict, to achieve peace:
peace in our hearts, peace in our homes,
peace in our sorely troubled world.
17. Through your powerful intercession
with God help us to be peace-makers.
Aid us to work for peace,
to take the first step in ending
bitterness,
to be the first to hold out our hands
in friendship and forgiveness.
18. Beg God to let peace permeate our lives
so that they may be lived in grace and
love.
At the end of our lives, obtain for us the
reward of the peacemakers,
the eternal blessed vision of God in
heaven.
Amen.
