Be with us at all times, especially as we celebrate the great jubilee, the anniversary of the birth of Jesus, our Savior. May we be instruments of peace, justice and reconciliation, and lead us to unity with all our sisters and brothers in Christ. Make us disciples like Mary, the mother of Jesus, and grant that the light of the Gospel may prevail more and more throughout the whole world. We ask this through your Son, Jesus. All: Amen. Spontaneous prayers of petition may be added here, especially for the needs of individuals in the family. These petitions can conclude with the Lord's Prayer. Blessing Leader: Loving God, we thank you for being with us at this meal. Bless us and bless our food; help us to grow in love and unity and live in your service. We ask this through Christ our Lord. All: Amen. Source: Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops Found at: Archdiocese of Milwaukee http://www.catholicjubilee.org/mealpray.html |
