Alex

Heavenly Creator of the universe, we thank You for Alex 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.  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

Hayley

Lord, we thank You for Hayley to whom you've entrusted to our family.  We look to cooperate with Your abundant grace and example in helping her grow into a free and responsible young lady and to mature in the faith she received at Baptism. Let the spirit of love and renewal continue in the lives of all who believe, that they might be changed in Your image and likeness, O God. May all who seek new life find it in You. Amen.

Ashley and Jimmy Carter Family

Lord,  we thank you for the blessing of the Carters.  As they continue their family life together may you bless them in abundance with wisdom and patience.  Accept the offering of their married love and make it a source of blessing for us and for all who make up their lives.  Draw them towards you as you bring them together in the unity of their love for one another.  Amen.

Paul

Lord, we thank you for the love you have poured out upon our family and we thank you for the gift of Paul. Bless him as he lives out his vocation of loving husband and father. Give him the graces he needs this day, and every day, in the workplace and at home. Continue to draw him ever closer to yourself and keep him safe. May his life be a witness to your peace, love, and mercy. Lord, teach us all to be generous; to serve you as you deserve; to give and not to count the cost; to fight and not to heed the wounds; to toil and not to ask for rest; to labor and not to ask for reward, save that of knowing that we do your will. Amen.
