Emma

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.

Nichole

Lord, we thank you for the love you have poured out upon our family and we thank you for the gift of Nichole. Bless her as she lives out her vocation of wife and mother. Give her the graces she needs this day, and every day, as she goes about her work. Continue to draw her ever closer to yourself; calm her fears, and keep her safe. May her 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.

William

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.

Blake

Lord Jesus,
You welcomed children into your loving arms like they were ambassadors to the kingdom.  Please bless Blake 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.

James

Loving God, you watch over each and every one of your children.  Hear our prayer for James.  Be his constant companion.  Protect him no matter where he goes, and bring him safely and quickly home to those who love him. May we, your sons and daughters, be a witness to him in living out the faith that you've passed down through our parents and mentors, while guiding him to live a life for the love and well being of others.  We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Eun Young

Loving God, we lift up Eun Young in prayer this week. We thank you for the gift of her presence in our lives. May you fill her with an abundance of your grace as she does her best to raise her children in a loving household. 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.  We ask this in Christ's name.
Amen.

Pam

Lord, we offer to you our prayers for Pam.  We thank you for the gift of her presence in our lives.  As a mother and grandmother, please give her the grace to care for those you've sent into her life, to help them develop the special gifts you've given them.  To model for them how to follow their own paths that you've called them to and to bring their loving wisdom to the world. Amen.
