Let us pray...

“Come to Me, all of you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28)

There is a special section of this website that is dedicated for all who are sick. Everyone is encourage to submit names to gemsrousa@yahoo.com or simply post the name in the comments section so it can be added to the prayer list. Let us as a community of faith put our trust in the Lord and offer up our petitions to Him and with love and support, let us continue to pray for each other, especially those among us who are suffering from any illness or hardship.

Prayer for the Sick
Dear Jesus, Divine Physician and Healer of the sick, we turn to you in this time of illness. O dearest comforter of the troubled, alleviate our worry and sorrow with your gentle love, and grant us the grace and strength to accept this burden. Dear God, we place our worries in your hands. We place our sick under your care and humbly ask that you restore your servant to health again. Above all, grant us the grace to acknowledge your will and know that whatever you do, you do for the love of us. Amen.
1 Our Father....1 Hail Mary...1 Glory Be...


"For me prayer is a surge of the heart, it is a simple look towards Heaven, it is a cry of recognition and of love, embracing both trial and joy."- Saint Therese of Lisieux
