Catholic Prayer: Prayer for a Sick Person

Description:

This is a lovely prayer that an individual or family can pray for sick persons.

Prayer:

Almighty and Eternal God, the everlasting health of those who believe; hear us for Thy sick servant (name inserted here) for whom we implore the aid of Thy tender mercy, that, being restored to bodily health, he (or she) may give thanks to Thee in Thy Church. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
