The Baptist Union is joining with other Christian organisations in this country encouraging us to pray together – in small groups, as a congregation as well as in our own quiet times, for the time of crisis we face as a nation and specifically in the health care sectors. These are the specific points of prayer, though of course there will be others too on your heart, at this time.
1) Pray for all the NHS staff – for their own safety, energy and peace in dealing with each and every patient;
2) Pray for those in hospital leadership – for wisdom and good decisions to give the best outcomes for patients;
3) Pray for patients – for healing, for peace and ultimately to fight this disease and get home for their relatives who feel helpless;
4) Pray for the vaccine – that it will is and will be, working against this latest strain of Covid-19; 5) Pray for a reprieve and an end to Covid-19.
