Today, we pray for parents

Lord Jesus, today we bring to you the men and women who parent us. Bless them mightily today and forever, Lord. You gave some of us this privilege and honour – to parent new generations. We thank You for this precious blessing, Jesus. Give us the wisdom needed to raise children who worship and love You more than anything else. May our parenting be the kind that honours You, our creator, more than anything else. Help us also to honour and love our spouse, with whom we share this blessing of parenting. Amen.

Today, we pray for those facing death

Lord Jesus, we surrender to You each man, woman and child, who is facing death today. We pray that Your Spirit strengthens and calms them, when they enter the valley of death. May each one of them receive the grace to know Your presence, the comfort of Your angels and have a peaceful death. Give Your grace to those who are holding them and grieving, when they cross the barrier. May none of our dear ones die violent or untimely deaths and may we never have to face death in fear or in loneliness, without someone holding our hands. Amen.
