Lord Jesus,
You welcomed children into your loving arms like they were ambassadors to the kingdom. Please bless Noble as we lift him up in prayer to you. 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. Amen.
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.
Loving God, we thank You for Emma 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. Be her constant companion. 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. We ask this through Christ our Lord, Amen.
Dear Lord,
This week we lift up in prayer Pap. As a man of honor he served our country with other worthy men and women who gave their best when they were called upon to serve and protect their country. We pray that you will bless him, Lord, for his unselfish service in the continual struggle to preserve our freedoms, our safety, and our country’s heritage, for all of us. Bless him abundantly for the hardships he faced, for the sacrifices he made for their many different contributions to America’s victories over tyranny and oppression. For all the veterans, men, and women serving our country we respect them, we thank them, we honor them, we are proud of them, and we pray that you will watch over these special people and bless them with peace and happiness. In Jesus’ name we pray.
Amen.
