National Week of Prayer for Healing Against COVID 19
March 2020
The 205,000-strong Philippine National Police and our respective families, join the Filipino nation in faithful observance of the National Week of Prayer in support of Proclamation No. 934, signed by President Rodrigo Roa Duterte last March 21, 2020 declaring the fourth week of March 2020 as a National Week of Prayer.
We humbly invoke God’s promise in 2 Chronicles 7:14. “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”
The PNP in support of our Commander-in-Chief urges all Filipinos of all faiths, religious traditions and backgrounds to unite our hearts in prayer as we face the threat of COVID 19!
We urge everyone to join us in praying for all our frontliners, for their safety and health, as well as for their immunity and strength to continue fighting for their countrymen amidst this global health crisis.
We pray that the heroism of our frontline medical practitioners and health workers will not be in vain as we highlight the importance of staying at home and making our homes as our fortress in this world war against COVID 19. We pray that every Filipino will heed the call of the government for them to strictly follow the protocols imposed by it on community quarantine and social distancing.
We also ask our countrymen to include in their prayers the military and law enforcement officers, government officials and personnel, and all Filipinos who sacrifice and risk their lives for duty and country, including the 27,000 Life Coaches and Bless Our Cops volunteers who conduct Squad Weekly Interactive Meetings (SWIM) with our cops spread nationwide.
Together with our beloved families, we submit unto God as One PNP, as One Nation led by our President that our prayers for mercy and forgiveness shall heal our land.
We love the earth, We love our country and we will defend our home!
Amen and may God bless us all!
