Rehabilitation and Fitness Awareness Week is celebrated annually in September.
Gracious God,
today we remember in particular our colleagues whose work we celebrate
during this National Rehabilitation and Fitness Awareness Week.
Together they serve the physical needs of so many
whose bodies labor to be whole and strong again.
Steady their hands and hearts in this service
and give them the patience that comes from you,
a patience born of love for all those who need their skill and care.
May they know the gratitude of those whom they serve
and be strengthened in the knowledge that what they do they do in your Name.
Amen.
