Introduction
This pandemic experience we’re passing through has brought us face-to-face with the reality of what causes serious illness and what the consequences are for us when we are sick. Have you ever visited a sick person? Think about your feelings during this visit. Now watch and listen carefully to this conversation between the two friends you will observe in this video:

Reflective Thought
It is very common to become ill and when this happens we will need someone to take care of us and to help us. Usually, these are the people who are very close to us. Today, let us remember the sick, especially those who have to spend a lot of time on their own and are feeling sad and lonely. We frequently hear about famous people who used to visit and take care of the sick. We should feel happy that we can help or visit a sick person.
Prayer
Oh God, bless all sick people. Make their pain less and give them strength. Amen.

Introduction
We believe that God is love. When we think about this, the question which comes to mind is: why is there disease and suffering? Sick people remind us that God is always with us. From sick people we can learn that the suffering they undergo can bring them closer to God. Let us watch this video together:

Reflective Thought
The hug the young man gave his fiancée is a hug of love and courage. The young man told her that during the tough time they were experiencing together they would, “support each other to beat this”. This moment invites us to think about someone who is, at this moment, sick. In what ways can I give a sick person support in spite of the pandemic restrictions? Let us think for a while.
Prayer
Oh God, you are love; bestow upon us the grace that we learn to be there for each other in every possible way, especially with the sick and the vulnerable. Amen.
