A Prayer for Future Healthcare Professionals

A snapshot of the Christian Medical Society (CMS) / CMDA at PSU-Hershey College of Medicine in Spring 2022. To God be the glory!

Inspired by new students beginning orientation at Penn State Hershey College of Medicine* and others who will be doing likewise across the Northeast over the course of the next several weeks, I once again not only offer this prayer by Pastor Bill Melone** for students, but also ask pastors, partners in ministry, friends, family and current healthcare professionals to join me in praying for future healthcare professionals you are connected with and/or are studying at a school in your area. ~ Thomas B. Grosh IV, D.Min., CMDA Northeast Regional Director

Lord,

Grant your strength and grace to these students as they prepare to treat and serve people in the medical field. Help them to find reserves of energy and intellectual capacity in their studies. As they move toward their specialties, give them discernment and peace. And as they get closer to their practice, keep them alert to care well for the person in front of them, seeing them with your eyes as a person of value and dignity.

Amen.
