Compassionate Lord, we pray for those who have been devastated by recent natural disasters.  Surround them with our prayers for strength. Bless those who are suffering. May they have the courage
to face the long road of rebuilding ahead.

We ask your blessing on all those who have lost their homes, their livelihoods, their security and their hope. Bless the work of relief agencies and those providing emergency assistance. May their work
be guided by the grace and strength that comes from You alone.  We ask this in Jesus' name.

Amen.
