The Perils of Prayerlessness

So, with all the destruction going on in the South, I've come upon a new predicament when it comes to letting people know you're hoping the best for them. On more than one occasion I have started to say "you're in our prayers" and stopped myself. I don't pray and don't want to lie and say I do, but what I do feels as strong and heart-felt as a prayer, but it's more like hoping...Do I say "you're in our hopes"? "You're in our thoughts" just seems to mediocre. I guess there's lots of ways to say it, I just feel like the pray-ers have a monopoly on exchanges of sympathy. What's an atheist to do?
