During this difficult and trying time, the Metropolis of Atlanta has published a most beautiful prayer of protection from the coronavirus (below). His Eminence Metropolitan Alexios of Atlanta encourages all the Faithful throughout the United States to offer this prayer in their “κατ’οικον εκκλησία,” in their “church of the home.”
Whether individually or as a family, I ask you to offer up this prayer before Almighty God, either in the morning upon waking, or in the evening before retiring to bed, or ideally, both.
For:
“… by prayer and supplication…let your requests be made known unto God.” Philippians 4:6
“And Jesus looking upon them said…with God all things are possible.” Mark 10:27
“And the prayer of faith shall save the sick…” James 5:15
Stay safe. Stay blessed.
Father Steve
