Jan. 24, 2021 - 3rd Sunday of Ordinary Time, 4:30pm Liturgy
Keep the Faith
During times of crisis is when God’s people are often at their best. While we pray for the people affected by this virus, we also pray for all people suffering, hurting, and in need. We may meet in a building, but the church is not limited to our building on Old U.S. 23. Be bold and courageous during this time and look for ways to continue to meet one another's needs while being responsive to public health concerns. The use of social media, online viewing, electronic giving, creative delivery of discipleship content, growing prayer ministries, and better connection to each other will all leave the church in a stronger position after the virus passes. God’s people will experience God’s abundant care and faithfulness when we prayerfully walk in faith.

For Prayer…reflection
​
Prayer for Spiritual Communion
My Jesus,
I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.

A Prayer for the Sick and Those Who Have Lost Loved Ones
​
Lord,
Today we pray for those who are suffering from the ravages of the Corona Virus. We ask that you bring healing to those who are currently suffering from this virus. Lord, help their bodies stay strong. Help them fight this illness. Turn the sick to you in their hour of need and save them both physically and spiritually.
We ask that you comfort those who have a loved one currently suffering or have already lost someone dear to them. Give them the peace that only you can give.
We ask that you remove this disease from the world as quickly as possible. Help us to follow recommendations so that we may be free from the threat that Covid-19 currently poses to our world.
You are the Great Healer. You alone have the power to cure all disease. We ask that, if it be your will, you will slow the spread and hasten the discovery of a remedy.
In the name of your son, Jesus, we pray these things, Amen
​
A Prayer for Health Care Workers
​
Father,
Today we pray for all those on the front lines, caring for the health of all. Bless the scientists, nurses, doctors, office staff, pharmacists, and researchers. Some are working countless hours around the clock for us. They go into battle every day to protect and to guide. Strengthen their hands to do your work. Give them patience and strength. Make their minds sharp, their hearts sensitive, and their hands steady.
When they go home after long shifts let them know that they’ve done well. Give them the rest they need to keep them strong. Protect their loved ones so they do not have to choose service over family. Help them be sensitive, caring, and sensible so others are put at ease. Thank you for their training, their love, and their care. We ask that you would watch over them today and every day until you heal our world.
In the name of Christ, our Great Physician, Amen
