God, our Lord, Lord of all creation and of humanity in its entirety
You who have chosen Mary and elected her among all women
Sending her the angel Gabriel to announce to her the good news
That we celebrate together Christians and Muslims
Our Lord, the Merciful, the Compassionate, the One who loves all of humankind
You who have given us the blessing of life, save us from the danger of this pandemic
O Lord, make of the Virgin Mary a model for us in our lives
May her example motivate us to hold on to our unity in the face of hardships and challenges
And to have confidence in Your Providence instead of giving in to fear or pride
So that we may, like her, show solidarity and serve others in all gratuity
Our Lord, You are the All-Hearing, the One who supports
Assist the paramedics, the nurses, and the doctors
Heal the sick and Console the grieving
Give those who are in need their sustenance and their needs
We implore Your assistance
to remain dedicated to You
and faithful to each other
Amen
