Prayers for the Princess of Wales

Rev Fiona Smith, Principal Clerk of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland, said:

"We are deeply saddened to hear the news that Catherine, Princess of Wales, has been diagnosed with cancer.

"In her message this evening, the Princess expressed her solidarity with all those facing cancer and we remember all who do so at this time.

"We also remember His Majesty King Charles, and assure them both, and the Royal family, of our continuing prayers at this time and that they be given the strength, comfort, healing, and peace that they need."

Prayer for the Princess of Wales

God of all Creation

And giver of life:

We pray for Catherine, Princess of Wales,

And ask that You will be with her at this time.

Grant to her healing

And the renewal of strength;

Grant to her peace

And the promise of Your presence;

Grant to her comfort

And light even in darkness,

Through Jesus Christ our Lord,

Amen.
