Home and family
Come, Lord Jesus,
into my heart and home.
You are my welcome guest.
Feast at my table,
drink of my wine.
Thank you for your friendship.
Please, stay with me
now and always.

Generous Father,
you made the human family to be
the simplest unit of society.
It is a communion of minds and hearts,
the cradle of the Church,
the foundation of the community.
Bless, prosper and watch over
the well-being of my family.
Preserve and foster our mutual love and respect.
Unite us, above all, in striving
to know, love and serve you.
Help us to be
of benefit to society
and to your Church, to advance your Good News
and proclaim your holiness.
Help us all to grow closer to you
and to one another.
