Synod Prayer

   Jesus, Mary and Joseph, in you we contemplate the splendor of true love, to you we turn with trust.

   Holy Family of Nazareth, grant that our families and households, the domestic churches of Eastern Montana, may be places of communion and prayer, of love and mercy; authentic schools of the Gospel.

   Holy Family of Nazareth, may our families and households never experience violence, rejection or division: may all who have been hurt or scandalized find ready comfort and healing.

   Holy Family of Nazareth, may the approaching Synod of our Diocese make us once more mindful of the sacredness and inviolability of the family, the domestic church, and its beauty in God’s plan.

   Jesus, May and Joseph, graciously hear our prayer! Amen
