FOR EVERY FAMILY --- Lord, from You every
You are Love and Life.
Through Your Son, Jesus Christ, born of woman,
and through the Holy Spirit, the fountain of divine
charity, grant that every family on earth may
become for each successive generation a true
shrine of life and love.
Grant that Your grace may guide the thoughts and
actions of husbands and wives for the good of
their families and of all the families of the world.
Grant that the young may find in the family solid
support for their human dignity and for their
growth in truth and love.
Grant that love, strengthened by the grace of the
sacrament of Marriage, may prove mightier than
all the weaknesses and trials through which our
families sometimes pass.
Through the intercession of the Holy Family of
Nazareth, grant that the Church may fruitfully carry
out her worldwide mission in the family and
through the family.
We ask this of You, who are Life, Truth, and Love
with the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
[L’Osservatore Romano, 5-25-80, 19]
