A Prayer in Time of Pandemic
O God, whose Only Begotten Son bore the weight of human suffering for our salvation,
hear the prayers of your Church
for our sick brothers and sisters
and deliver us from this time of trial.
Open our ears and our hearts
to the voice of your Son:
Be not afraid, for I am with you always.
Bless all doctors and nurses,
researchers and public servants;
give us the wisdom to do what is right
and the faith to endure this hour,
that we might gather once again
to praise your name in the heart of your Church, delivered from all distress
and confident in your mercy.
Through Christ our Lord. Amen

Come and spend the most peaceful hour (or part of an hour) of your week with Jesus. Until we are allowed to go back inside the Chapel for our usual adoration hours on Tuesdays (due to the Covid 19 regulations), we will have a Holy Hour of adoration starting at 2 pm followed by silent adoration. This Holy Hour will conclude at the 3 pm with the recitation of the Chaplet of Divine Mercy, other prayers and Benediction. Every Tuesday starting September 8th at OLI Main Church.Read More
