William

Lord, we lift up William to you as we thank you for the blessing he is to our family. Give us calm strength and patient wisdom as he is brought up in the faith, that we may teach him to love whatever is just and true and good, following the example of our Savior Jesus Christ. As the Jewish Sabbath blessing goes, 'May God make you like Ephraim and Menashe'." (Genesis 48:20). Amen.

James "the Forth"

Loving God, you watch over each and every one of your children.  Hear our prayer for James.  Be his constant companion.  Protect him no matter where he goes, and bring him safely and quickly home to those who love him. May we, your sons and daughters, be a witness to him in living out the faith that you've passed down through our parents and mentors, while guiding him to live a life for the love and well being of others.  We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Anna

Lord, we thank you for the precious gift of Anna in our lives. We know that every good gift comes from You, and that You have given her to us to care for and raise. Help us to release her into Your protection, guidance, and counsel. For us not to live in fear of possible dangers, but in the joy and peace of knowing that You are in control. We rely on You for everything, and this day we trust and release Anna into Your hands. Amen.

Tom Kollet

Eternal rest grant unto Tom Kollet, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

A fun news article that I found that Tom and Anne were in. Apparently Tom and Anne were Gold metal winners for the senior Olympics in 1989.

Jenna

Dear Lord,
We come to You in Jesus' name and give Jenna to You. We're convinced that You alone know what is best for her. You alone know what she needs. We release her to You to care for and protect her, and we commit ourselves to pray for her needs. Teach us how to pray and guide us down the path toward Christian holiness. May we model Your love for her as she grows. Amen
