Prayer For Families In Honor of The Holy Family of Jesus, Mary & Joseph
We bless your name, O Lord, for sending your own incarnate Son,
to become part of a family, so that, as he lived its life, he would experience its worries and its joys.
We ask you, Lord, to protect and watch over this family, so that in the strength of your grace
its members may enjoy prosperity, possess the priceless gift of your peace,
and, as the Church alive in the home, bear witness in this world to your glory.
We ask this thought Christ our Lord. Amen.
