From Archbishop Anthony Fisher, Catholic Archbishop of Sydney

We pray at this time for all affected by the coronavirus:
for the dead and the grieving, the sick and the dying;
for the elderly and the vulnerable, the isolated and the anxious;
for those caring for them, our health professionals and pastors;
for those still at work, working from home, or out of work;
for our leaders and health authorities;
for those deprived of family contact or social life
for our loved ones and ourselves.

As we are faced with uncertainty and fear, we need the wisdom and compassion of Your Son now more than ever. Help us to ‘let go and let God’, to give our lives into Your hands. Heavenly Father, grant us a safe passage through these troubled times in the company of Your Son. “Come with me,” Jesus says to us, “Rise up to everlasting life and love!”
