Welcome to the 7th day of our Novena. Today we are praying for all those who feel anxious, are isolated and alone at this time. The experience of COVID-19 has caused much anxiety among us. Many have also felt isolated and alone because of lockdowns and restrictions. We remember also mental health professionals and good friends who are helping to reduce the feelings of worry and social isolation. They are ministers of God's companionship and concern for all his beloved sons and daughters.
You can also join us on Facebook anytime during the day and download the prayer and intentions for each day.
Mary,
you are always with the brothers and sisters of your Son.
We entrust ourselves to you
in the midst of all that is happening to us.
Help us to protect and look after each other.
Be with those who mourn and those who are sick,
those who have lost jobs and hope.
Be with us in our fear and uncertainty.
Don't let worry and anxiety overcome us.
Be our source of hope.
Lend your strength to all those helping others and those who are caring for the sick.
Help us to end this disease.
Intercede for us with your Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
