Prayer
Loving God, we are reminded from our Bible readings that Jesus came to open the eyes of the blind, unstop deaf ears and cast out evil spirits. 
We especially pray for any we know who are in need of specialist care to help them improve their lives.  
Lord as the maker of us all, help us to be generous and a blessing to all whom we come in contact with this week. Amen
