Great are your deeds, O God! With Mary we acclaim you and pray: Show us mercy, God.  Inspire efforts to ensure that all people have access to health care. Show us mercy, God. Turn our hearts to kindness, humble love, and concern for those in need. Show us mercy, God. Heal us and our world of prejudice, greed, and fear. Show us mercy, God. Our Father . . .  May God favor us with love and mercy, through Christ, whose coming we eagerly await. Amen.
