God of peace, you are near to those who turn their hearts to you. In faith we pray: 

God, in your mercy, hear us.  

Strengthen those who seek healing from addiction of any kind. 

God, in your mercy, hear us.  

Give love and stamina to all who care for the sick. 

God, in your mercy, hear us.  

Grant a bountiful harvest, and help us ensure just wages for farmers and all who work the land. 

God, in your mercy, hear us.  

Our Father . . .  

May God give us the desires of our heart and make all our plans succeed, by the power of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
