Written to assist those who carry Communion to the sick and shut-ins, the table of contents features a wide variety of illnesses for which prayer is needed. Each prayer can be personalized by inserting the person’s name. This offers both minister and patient comfort and hope as they look to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament as the Divine Physician and Remedy of the sick and suffering.
