Opening Prayer• Heavenly Creator of the universe, we thank You for the

children that You have entrusted to us.  We want to cooperate with You fully in helping themgrow into free and responsible persons and mature in the faith received at Baptism.

Grant us the grace to be able to guide them in the practice of virtue and the way of your commandments---by the good example of our lives, and by the loving observance of your law and that of Your Church.

Most of all, however, guide them with your Spirit so that they may know the vocation You will for them and be open to genuine self-giving and true Christian love. Amen.
