Carried

A Bedside Service of Prayer and Thanksgiving

In the quiet corners of care—ward corridors, bedside chairs, and staff rooms—words often fail us. Carried is a liturgy written for the weary, the waiting, and those who hold the space in between. Whether you are a patient, a healthcare professional, or a companion, these blessings are designed to acknowledge the “Circuit of Care” that binds us together.

  • Opening Words
  • Prayers for the Fatigued
  • Blessings for Nurses
  • Closing Words

Go Deeper with “The Bears’ Book of Blessings”

While the liturgy offers a framework for prayer, the stories behind the care are captured in my book, Carried: The Bears’ Book of Blessings.

This collection pairs the liturgy with tender stories of the Bears—like Otto’s sensory adaptations and Custard’s quiet presence—offering warmth where words falter. It is a “quilt of prayer” for those who face what cannot be fixed.

  • Format: Available in a beautiful physical edition, perfect for keeping at a bedside or gifting to a carer.
  • Where to Buy: Purchase via Lulu.com

We go now, not fixed but held.
Not alone, but accompanied.
