Prayer to the Holy Family of Nazareth

 

Mother Mary,

bless the mother of our family.

Help her to be pure and kind,

gentle and self-sacrificing.

For the more she resembles you,

the better will our family be.
Saint Joseph,

bless the head of our family.

Obtain for him the strength,

the wisdom, and the prudence

he needs to support

and direct those under his care.
Lord Jesus,

bless the children of our family.

Help them to be obedient

and devoted to their parents.
Holy Family of Nazareth,

make our family

and home more

and more like yours,

until we are all one family,

happy and at peace

in our true home

with you in Heaven.
Amen.
