May God the Father bless us in all that we do this day.

May Jesus, beloved Son of the Father, bless us, as we go our way.

May God the Holy Spirit bless us in every thought, in every deed,

in every word we say,

May Blessed Mary, Mother of Jesus, bless us, and protect us, and draw us to pray.

May we be blessed by the Light of Christ.May a spark be kindled in each heart,

to flicker like a candle flame.

May Christ fill us with his light so that we may illuminate a dark place,

for his sake. AMEN!

Opening Prayer

Dearest Lord,teach me to be generous;

teach me to serve you as you deserve;to give and not to count the cost,

to fight and not to heed the wounds,to toil and not to seek for rest,

to labor and not to seek reward,save that of knowing that I do your will.

AMEN!

--St. Ignatius Loyola

Closing Prayer

Opening PrayerMay God give us. . .

For every storm, a rainbow,For every tear, a smile,

For every care, a promise,And a blessing in each trial.

For every problem life sends, A faithful friend to share,

For every sigh, a sweet song,And an answer for each prayer.

AMEN!

Closing PrayerWe thank you and bless you, Lord our God.

You have spoken through your Son to reveal to all the riches of your grace.

May we be filled with the knowledge of your will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, and may we bear fruit in every good work.

We ask this through Christ our Lord. AMEN!
