MIA Prayer Intention: For Families

Today is International Day of Families. Let us remember especially in our prayers today each of the members of our own families and all who are ‘like family’ to us. May our relationships be strengthened. May any conflicts be resolved. May love bind us together.

Let us remember, too, all new families— the struggling not just the celebrated— and all those mourning the absence of family members dear to them, including the widowed, refugees, prisoners, the homeless, runaways, trafficked persons, separated parents...

And let us give thanks also for the life of Jean Vanier who showed us all by his life how to form communities (families) - ‘through mutual respect, care, and love’.

Post your prayer in our online chapel.
