Happy Father’s Day!
God our Father,
In your wisdom and love
you have created us and
called us your own.
Bless our fathers, that
they may be strengthened
as Christian fathers. Let the example of their
faith and love shine forth.
In moments of joy, rejoice with them.
In times of struggle, give them
your courage and perseverance.
Grant that we, their sons and daughters,
may honor and appreciate them always
with a spirit of profound respect.
May the example and prayer of St. Joseph
inspire them to live their vocation with
courage. Grant this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
