* A Prayer for a Family !

O dear Jesus, 
I humbly implore You to grant Your special graces to our family.

May our home be the shrine of peace, purity, love, labor and faith. 
I beg You, dear Jesus, to protect and bless all of us, 
absent and present, living and dead. 

O Mary, loving Mother of Jesus,and our Mother,

pray to Jesus for our family,

for all the families of the world,

to guard the cradle of the newborn,

the schools of the young and their vocations. 

Blessed Saint Joseph,

holy guardian of Jesus and Mary,

assist us by your prayers

in all the necessities of life.

Ask of Jesus that special grace

which He granted to you,

to watch over our home

at the pillow of the sick and the dying,

so that with Mary and with you,

heaven may find our family unbroken

in the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

Holy Guardian Angels,
 be always with us, 
guide and protect us. 
Amen.
