Prayer For Our Nation's Health Care Reform


Holy Family Catholic Church
22 Pope Avenue

Hilton Head Island, SC 29928


Lord Jesus, you are the Divine Physician,
And the source of all life and health.

Guide our nation at this critical moment,
As our government seeks health care reform.

Give our elected officials the humility to know
That they are servants, not masters.
Give them the wisdom to realize
That every life is of equal value.

Give them the strength to resist the idea

That some lives can be sacrificed to save others

Or that killing the unborn is a part of health care.

Give your people the courage to speak up
And to hold public officials
Accountable for their actions.


Save us, Lord Jesus, from a culture of death,

And let every reform in our public policy
Be based on the reform of our hearts and minds

In the light of your Gospel,

For you are Lord forever and ever.

Amen
