Prayer for the victims of the typhoon Ondoy (Ketsana)

I was tagged by my friend Amor who was also affected by the Typhoon Ondoy. Their house had been submerged in a knee-deep water.

I was to pass this prayer started by Fr. Stephen Cuyos of Happy Faith.

Prayer for the victims of the typhoon Ondoy (Ketsana)

Loving Father, you are our shelter and our hope. We come to you with hearts full of trust in your love and mercy.

We pray for the victims of tropical storm Ondoy. May those who have lost homes and properties find shelter, enough food and clean water. Comfort those who are traumatized and those who are grieving for the loss of their families, neighbors and friends. Bless those who are sick and those who are injured that their health may be restored and their wounds cured. May you lead all who are stranded or lost back to those who love them. Guide the hands of the rescuers, the doctors and nurses and other volunteers and give them strength as they serve others with joy.

May this calamity bring people closer together, to help each other and to care for the environment. Give us the faith, the hope and the love to carry on. This we ask through Jesus Christ, Our Lord.



I am tagging some blogger friends to pass this prayer too. Please pass on this prayer Etcetera,Etcetera,and Fit4all

Let us be still and know that He is God.




Hide me now under Your wings
Cover me within Your mighty hand
When the oceans rise and thunders roar
I will soar with You above the storm
Father You are King over the flood
I will be still and know You are God

Find rest my soul in Christ alone
Know His power in quietness and trust
When the oceans rise and thunders roar
I will soar with You above the storm

Father You are King over the flood
I will be still and know You are God

  1. Sis thanks for posting this tag. Sana maka bangon kaagad ang mga Pinoy lalo na yung masyadong naapekto-han. Ang hirap isipin no. Okay lang yung sa gamit dahil mapapalitan, ang masaklap eh yung mga namatayan. :(
