Prayer for our Children, on St. Mary Celebration

Offered by Lida Ananian  August 20, 2025

Since we celebrated the Fest of the Assumption of Mary last Sunday, I would like to offer my prayers in relation to her and a special prayer for all our kids.

We blessed Virgin Mary, on the holy day we rejoice in your glorious assumption into heaven, body, and soul, where you crowned as Queen beside your son, our lord Jesus Christ. Help us to remain faithful to Jesus in times of trial, courageous in times of doubt, and humble in times of blessing.

Dear God,  I lift our children into your loving hands.

Please watch over them, protect all our children and their families, near or far. Bless them with good health, long life, and strong faith. Wrap them in your mantle of protection, guide their hearts, protect them in every situation, every harm, in health and in strength and in weakness, in safety and in danger. 

Guide their hearts to walk in truth and love.  If any are sick, please place your healing hands upon them and restore their strength. Protect them from every danger. Surround them with peace and happiness in their homes. Bless their friends and soften the hearts of their enemies. Teach them to forgive, to stand strong, and to trust in You always.  May your light shine upon them, and may Your love follow them all the days of their lives. Amen.

 🙏

Health, Peace and Love

A Prayer for Health, Peace, and Love

Heavenly Father,
We lift up our hearts to You with hope and humility.
Bless those we love with good health—strengthen their bodies, calm their minds, and surround their spirits with peace.
Shine Your healing light upon them and keep them safe in Your care.

We pray for peace in this world,
That hatred may be silenced, and division replaced with understanding.
Let kindness ripple through every heart—may it begin with us.
Where there is darkness, let Your light shine brightly.
Where there is fear or confusion, let Your truth bring clarity and calm.

Guide those who are lost—show them the way back to love, to purpose, to You.
Let no one feel forgotten or alone.
Help us accept one another, just as You have accepted us.
Break down the walls of judgment and build bridges of compassion.
Teach us to love deeply, forgive freely, and walk humbly together.

We trust in Your mercy and power, Lord.
Let this world feel Your presence through our actions, our prayers, and our love towards each other.
Amen
