May is National Critical Care Awareness and Recognition Month.
Compassionate God,
your care for us extends to all times and all circumstances,
especially to those circumstances of greatest need.
During this National Critical Care Awareness Month,
we ask your special care for those who come to us in critical need
and for all who serve that need.
In your compassion give all our team members who offer critical care
the strength they require and the calm they need
to make good decisions and offer appropriate care.
Through their hands and out of their hearts make flow
deep sources of healing and compassion.
We pray in the name of your Son and in the power of your all-healing Spirit,
God forever.
Amen.
