Almighty God, who inspired Luke the physician to set forth in the gospel the love and healing power of your Son; grant that the same power and love may always be present in your Church to heal and comfort the sick for the glory of your name; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and ever. Amen.
