Prayers for use during the coronavirus outbreak

The Church of England has produced a booklet ‘Prayers for use during the coronavirus outbreak’ which can be accessed online from this link or purchased from Church House Publishing.

Here are a few of the prayers.

From one who is ill or isolated 
O God, help me to trust you, help me to know that you are with me, help me to believe that nothing can separate me from your love revealed in Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen.

Before going to sleep 
God our Father, by whose mercy the world turns safely into darkness and returns again to light: we place in your hands our unfinished tasks, our unsolved problems, and our unfulfilled hopes, knowing that only what you bless will prosper. To your love and protection, we commit each other and all those we love, knowing that you alone are our sure defender, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

(Church of South India)

A prayer for children (of all ages) remembering God is with us 
Lord God, you are always with me. You are with me in the day and in the night. You are with me when I’m happy and when I’m sad. You are with me when I’m healthy and when I am ill. You are with me when I am peaceful and when I am worried. Today I am feeling (name how you are feeling) because (reasons you are feeling this way). Help me to remember that you love me and are with me in everything today.  Amen.
