Prayer for the Elderly

 

All-powerful and living God, in whom we live and move and have our being, we thank you and praise you  for giving N. and N. long years, lived in faith and in doing good. Grant that they may have the loving support of their relatives and friends, that in good health they may be cheerful, and in poor health not lose hope. Sustained by the help of your blessing, let them spend their old age giving praise to your name. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
