O God, you have created us in love and saved us in mercy, and through the bond of marriage you have established the Reynolds family and willed that it should become a sign of Christ's love for his people. Shower your blessing on this family gathered here in your name. Enable those who are joined by one love to support one another by their favor of spirit and devotion to prayer. Make them responsive to the needs of others and witnesses to the faith in all they say and do. In Your name we pray. Amen.
As the Holy Spirit is the love exchange between the Father and the Son so may this same Spirit of Love increase the charity within my family.
Right around mid-October of 2009 it hit me that I wanted to be more intentional with praying for my family on an individual basis. As the thought matured I thought it would be nice to make this action a little more communal by inviting my family to be joining with me in the weekly intention. Hopefully through this we would all in a way be coming together in prayer no matter where we are on the globe. After all a family that prays together, stays together.
I thought this would be a nice Christmas present to my whole family, so below you'll find the weekly schedule and in the body of this site I'll post a different prayer each weekend for the family member that we'll be praying for during the week.
