Prayers: Swine flu empties Mexico City's churches



H/T to American Papist: Not Your Average Catholic

Catholics in Mexico City were unable to attend Mass today for fear of the swine flu (which Drudge has been reporting):
Churches stood empty Sunday in heavily Roman Catholic Mexico City after services were canceled, and health workers screened airports and bus stations for people sickened by a new strain of swine flu that experts fear could become a global epidemic. (AP)
Here is the communique from the Archdiocese of Mexico.

Let's pray for those who could not attend Mass today, and pray for a speedy end to this outbreak. Amen.

I would add, let's also pray for all the victims and their families and hope that this hasn't been concocted in a lab by anyone with nefarious intent.
