Prayer for the family. Blessed Teresa of Calcutta

Heavenly Father, you have given us the model of life in the Holy Family of Nazareth.

Help us, Loving Father, to make our family another Nazareth where love, peace and join reign.

May it be deeply contemplative, intensely Eucharistic, revived with joy.

 

Help us to stay together in joy and sorrow in family prayer.

Teach us to see Jesus in the members of our families, especially in their distressing disguise.

May the Eucharistic heart of Jesus make our hearts humble like his and help us to carry out our family duties in a holy way.

 

May we love one another as God loves each one of us, more and more each day, and forgive each other’s faults as you forgive our sins.

Help us, O Loving Father, to take whatever you give and give whatever you take with a big smile.

 

Immaculate Heart of Mary, cause of our joy, pray for us.

 

St. Joseph, pray for us.

 

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

Amen
