Hospital Week

Reflection

“The capacity to care is the thing which gives life its deepest significance.”
~ Pablo Casals

Prayer

God of compassion and care,

Today, we begin our celebration of National Hospital Week. May this week serve to remind us of the tremendous gift our hospitals are to the communities they serve. May our commemoration of this week instill within us a spirit of gratitude for the compassion and care so many receive on a daily basis in our hospitals. May the example of compassion and care embodied each day in our hospitals, inspire each of us to renew our commitment to our call to extend the compassionate ministry of Jesus to all we encounter, especially to people who are sick and vulnerable. In your name, we pray. Amen.

Call to Action

Take a moment today to say thank you to hospital staff for the service they offer each day.
