Peter and Christine Reynolds Family

Lord, as we celebrate the feast of your Holy Family today, we ask for a special blessing upon Peter and Christine's family.  You gave us our families as a tangible experience of the love that you share within the Holy Trinity.  In the primacy of our love for Jesus we receive the ability to love others in a sanctified way and, in turn, to generate the love of Christ, especially through the community of family.  We turn to you to teach us the sanctity of human love, to show us the value of family life, and to help us to live in peace with all men that we may share in your life for ever.  We ask this through Christ our Lord.  Amen.

Extended Family

O dear Jesus, I humbly implore You to grant Your special graces to our family.  May our homes be the shrine of peace, purity, love, labor and faith. Come and fill our homes with your presence, You alone are worthy of our reverence.  Lord we vow to live holy, bowing our knees to You only.  These are our hopes and ideals.  Help us to attain them, O God, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

Grandma Reynolds

Loving lord, as we gather around our family table on this Advent season, we ask your special blessing on our mother Noreen. Her presence brings light and warmth to our lives and we thank you for giving her to us. We know her care for us has been constant. She has enlightened us at some of the most difficult times in our family life. Lord, now bless her with the same consolation that your Mother received during her life.  Amen.

Chase Family

Lord, we lift up to you the Chase family this week.  We thank you for their presence and the gift of their daughter Christine into our family.  O God of goodness and mercy, to Your fatherly guidance we commend our families, our household and all our belongings.We commit all to Your love and keeping; fill their house with Your blessings even as You filled the holy House of Nazareth with Your presence.  Amen.
