Morning Prayer for the Fifth Sunday in Lent commonly called Passion Sunday

We pray today for all those who have been affected by the COVID-19, especially for the sick, the fearful, healthcare workers, essential workers, the unemployed, and all those affected by this dastardly disease. Today we especially pray for my friend Tim, who has been infected by this horrible sickness and hospitalized. May he and all those who are hospitalized for this plague be restored, according to thy gracious will, to health of body and mind, and give thanks to thee in thy holy Church; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Collect of the Day: We beseech thee, Almighty God, mercifully to look upon thy people; that by thy great goodness they may be governed and preserved evermore, both in body and soul; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Prayer in the time of any common Plague of Sickness: O Almighty God, who in thy wrath didst send a plague upon thine own people in the wilderness, for their obstinate rebellion against Moses and Aaron; and also, in the time of king David, didst slay with the plague of pestilence threescore and ten thousand, and yet remembering thy mercy didst save the rest: Have pity upon us miserable sinners, who now are visited with great sickness and mortality; that like as thou didst then accept of an atonement, and didst command the destroying Angel to cease from punishing, so it may now please thee to withdraw from us this plague and grievous sickness; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
