Lynsey

Lord, we thank You for Lynsey to whom you've entrusted to our family.  We want to cooperate with You fully in helping her grow into a free and responsible young lady and mature in the faith she received at Baptism.  As she contiues along the journey of faith may You draw her ever closer to Yourself in the Sacraments and let her be aware of Your unconditional love for her.  Grant us the grace to be able to guide her in the practice of virtue and the way of Your commandments by the good example of our lives, and by the loving observance of Your law and that of Your Church. Amen

Laura



Lord, we thank you for the precious gift of Laura 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. To 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 Laura into Your hands. Amen.

Tommy and Fuzzy Reynolds Family



Lord, we are filled with gratitude for the many blessings we share: being together, abundance, well-being. Gracious God, we seek in our living a greater awareness of Your presence and your blessing upon the Reynolds family.  Move us to forgiveness. Gently ask that we let go of hurts and overlook shortcomings; Give us hope during time of difficulty and change. Help us to see and nurture goodness within each soul You've entrusted. May Your enduring love strengthen our bonds as we become blessings for one another and all who need our care. Amen
