Pope Francis
O Holy Family of Nazareth,
in you we recognize the true love of a family.
As we contemplate the great joy Jesus gave us
by becoming a member of our human family,
graciously accept us as we struggle to build
a loving family like Yours.
Jesus, touch our homes with Your mercy
by giving us hearts full of love, gratitude and
forgiveness. To Your humble stable we come
with all the sufferings of our broken human family.
Heal our every wound with Your love so that
our families, too, may radiate that same love.
O Holy Family of Nazareth, hear our prayers
through Christ our Lord. Amen.
