Sunday Evening Intercessions - Families

Intercessions - Sunday Evening
To Christ, Emmanuel, whom the Virgin conceived and brought forth, let us give praise and pray to him:
Son of the Virgin Mary, hear us.
You gave Mary the joy of motherhood,
-- give all parents true joy in their children.
King of peace, your kingdom is one of justice and peace,
-- help us to seek the paths of peace.
You came to make the human race the holy people of God,
-- bring all nations to acknowledge the unifying bond of your love.
By your birth you strengthened family ties,
-- help families to come to a greater love for one another.
You desired to bve born into the days of time,
-- grant that our departed brothers and sisters may be born into the day of eternity.

Our Father ...

God our Father,
may we always profit by the prayers of the Virgin Mother Mary,
for you bring us life and salvation through Jesus Christ her Son
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
