A Prayer For Families
Almighty God, our heavenly Father, who settest the solitary in families: We commend to thy continual care the homes in whieh thy people dwell. Put far. fromthem, we beseech thee, every root of bitterness, the desire of vainglory, and the pride of life. Fill them with faith, virtue, knowledge, temperance, patience, godlinoss. Knit together in constant affection those who, in holy wedlock, have been made -one flesh. Turn the hearts of the parents to the children, and the hearts of the children to the parents; and so enkindle r fervent charity among us all, that we may evermore be kindly affectioned one to another; through ]esus Christ our Lord. Amen.
