O dear Jesus, I humbly implore You to grant Your special graces to our family. May our homes be the shrine of peace, purity, love, labor and faith. Come and fill our homes with your presence, You alone are worthy of our reverence. Lord we vow to live holy, bowing our knees to You only. These are our hopes and ideals. Help us to attain them, O God, through Jesus Christ our Lord.
As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. AMEN.
Lord, we thank you for the precious gift of August in our lives. We know that every good gift comes from You, and that You have given him to us to care for and raise. Help us to release him into Your protection, guidance, and counsel. For us not to live in fear of possible dangers, but in the joy and peace of knowing that You are in control. We rely on You for everything, and this day we trust and release August into Your hands. Amen.
Dear Lord, we come to you today and ask special blessings upon our mother and grandmother, Ofelia. We thank you for the great gift she is to us; just as you love and care for your children, her gentle love and care for us has been constant. We beseech you, through the powerful intercession of Mary your mother, and St. Ann, your grandmother, to draw her ever closer to yourself and keep her safe and joyful in your service. Amen.
O God of goodness and mercy, to Your guidance we commend the Sunga Family. We thank you for their presence in our lives and we commit all to Your love and keeping; fill their homes with Your blessings even as You filled the holy House of Nazareth with Your presence. Amen.
