National Healthcare Environmental Services Week is celebrated the second week in September.
Gracious God,
strengthen us that we may cling to you and not let go.
As we begin this new week, give special assurance and strength
to our team members in Environmental Services and Housekeeping.
May your Holy Spirit be the pulse of their hearts,
the word on their lips, and the lamp for their feet.
May they experience the value of their work
and how essential it is to your healing touch among our patients and families.
Be ever close to them and to all who serve in this healthcare ministry.
We pray this together in Jesus' name.
Amen.
