Charlotte

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

Chrissy




Dear Lord, today we turn to you to give you thanks for Chrissy. Please help her to remain a loving mother to her children and to keep balance in her life. Help her to remember that you are with her in every packed hour of every day. Give her the grace to maintain her loving life at home; and the deepest knowledge in her heart that you love her. Strengthen her when she is down and give her hope when she is discouraged. Amen.

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.

The Peter and Christine Reynolds Family



Lord 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.

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.
