Gonzalez Family

O God of goodness and mercy, to Your guidance we commend the Gonzalez Family. We thank you for their presence in our lives and we commit all to Your love and keeping; fill each of their homes with Your blessings even as You filled the holy House of Nazareth with Your presence.  Amen.

The Jingle and Andrew Cruz Family

O God, you have created us in love and saved us in mercy, and through the bond of marriage you have established the Cruz family and willed that it should become a sign of Christ's love for his people. Shower your blessing on this family gathered here in your name. Enable those who are joined by one love to support one another by their favor of spirit and devotion to prayer. Make them responsive to the needs of others and witnesses to the faith in all they say and do. In Your name we pray.  Amen.

Grace

Dear Lord, we ask your blessings upon your daughter, Grace. We thank you for the gifts she brings to our family. As she faithfully serves you through lovingly serving her family, give her the graces she needs in each moment of each day. Draw her ever closer to you and keep her safe. Amen.

Ruthie

Lord, we thank you for the precious gift of Ruth in our lives. We know that every good gift comes from You, and that You have given her to us to care for and raise. Help us to release her 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 Ruth into Your hands. Amen.

DJ

Dear Lord, we come to you today and ask special blessings upon your son, DJ. We thank you for his presence in our lives and for the strong and caring young man he has become. Grant him the graces he needs in each moment of each new day and keep him safe and close to you always. Amen.

Bong

Lord, we thank you for Bong and the many gifts and blessings he brings to our lives.  You know that being a father is no meager task, but one that requires a multitude of gifts and blessings from your loving bounty.  Please bless Bong as he strives to be a strong and loving father and grandfather; help him to be gentle and selfless in the care of his family and children through struggles and joy.  May we seek the intersession of your earthly father, Joseph, for Bong to be blessed with wisdom, patience, and understanding.  In your name we pray. Amen.

Julian

Loving God, you watch over each and every one of your children.  Hear our prayer for Julian. Be his constant companion.  Protect him no matter where he goes, and bring him safely and quickly home to those who love him. May we, your sons and daughters, be a witness to him in living out the faith that you've passed down through our parents and mentors, while guiding him to live a life for the love and well being of others.  We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
