“I have competed well; I have finished the race; I have kept the faith.” –2 Timothy 4:7

Prayer

God of all comfort,

As a ministry called to serve the sick and dying, we implore you, by your spirit, to draw near and comfort all those who are especially ill or even facing life’s end. Empower the associates ministering to them, that they might embody your peace and share words of assurance that can carry these beloved souls into the days ahead. And as each day ends for each one of us, we pray we may rest in the blessing of knowing we’ve been faithful in all you have asked us to do. Humbly, we pray. Amen.
