Devotional for Prayer, Intercession & Remembrance Service
- 9:30 AM - 9:45 AM
- Renown Regional Medical Center – Spiritual Center
- Free
With Renown Health Prayer Partners Every Friday ◦ 9:30 – 9:45 AM Estelle J. Kelsey Interfaith Sanctuary ◦ Renown Regional Medical Center Facilitated by: Spiritual Care Team The importance of your prayers and reflections for those in need cannot be overemphasized. We continue to send out prayer requests from patients and family as they are received by email to the Renown Health Prayer Partners. Every Friday, the Spiritual Care team leads a brief devotional for prayers and intercessions for those who have requested support. All the prayer partners are invited to participate! While we use the word “prayer” for the custom of interceding on behalf of others for their health, please know that participation is not restricted to any one faith or tradition or to any one manner or method. Each person, according to their own personal belief or practice, may be part of the process of sharing words and thoughts as they ask for healing. Prayer, mediation, reflection, contemplation, recitation, chanting, reading — these and more – are all ways to intercede. Requesting a prayer or intercession: If you’d like to request a prayer be sent out on behalf of any patient, friend, family member or for anyone else in the community in need, please know that you are welcome to do so. You can do so by submitting a prayer card. Prayer cards are available at prayer boxes and in the Spiritual Center for your use. Cards are also available in the Care Coordination offices on units. You can also send your request by email to prayers@renown.org Or use the online Prayer Request form Joining the Devotional: Virtual Attendees: Please join us “LIVE” in Microsoft Teams. Click Here to Join In-Person Attendees: You can now attend in person, and no RSVP is required to attend. Directions: Please visit Renown Campus Parking Maps and select “Renown Regional Medical Center Visitor Guide” to view or download the PDF.

Roman Catholic Mass
- 1:30 PM - 2:00 PM
- Renown Regional Medical Center – Spiritual Center
- Free
Presiding: Father Joseph Infante, St. Therese Church of the Little Flower Estelle J. Kelsey Interfaith Sanctuary – Spiritual Center ◦ Renown Regional Medical Center This service is currently being offered on the first Friday of each month from 1:30-2:00 p.m., in English only. For Catholics, the Mass is a memorial of Christ’s suffering, death and resurrection. It is a sacrifice of thanksgiving to God, a blessing by which the Church expresses its gratitude to God for all God’s beneficence. In the Mass, the bread and wine become the “Body and Blood of Christ” — food for the body and the soul. By celebrating the Holy Eucharist on the first Friday of the month, the Catholic Community offers a blessing to remind Catholics of God’s continual and abiding presence in sickness, health, joy and pain. “God is always with us. God comes to be with us, and we come to be with God in the Holy Mass. God meets us where we are, and God is present in the bread and wine, in the scripture we read and hear, and in the community gathered together. Through the Holy Mass, we become one body, one family, one community. First Friday devotion aims to honor and recognize the Sacred Heart of Jesus, whose love of humanity is rich, genuine, holy, and everlasting.” – Fr. Joseph Joining the Service: Virtual Attendees: Please join us “LIVE” in Microsoft Teams.
