3/24/2020 Lord Jesus Christ, you travelled through towns and villages curing every disease and illness. At your command, the sick were made well. Come to our aid now, in the midst of this pandemic, that we may experience your healing love. Through the prayers of all the saints and especially those of Your mother, Mary, may we minister without fear to those in need and build up Your Church. May we do this, Lord, not relying on our strength, but Yours. We ask this in Your holy name, amen.
