PARENTS' PRAYER FOR CHILDREN

O Jesus, lover of children, bestow Your most precious graces on those You have confided to our care. Increase in them faith, hope and charity.

May Your love form them to goodness, inspiring them with an aversion to sin, love of work, and an ardent desire of worthily receiving the Sacraments.

Preserve in them innocence and purity of heart, and if they should offend You, grant them the grace of prompt and sincere repentance.

Please watch over them day and night; protect them in all their ways. Grant that they may acquire the knowledge they need and that they may embrace the vocation to which You call them.

Give us a sincere love for them, constant vigilance and generous devotedness. Be our consolation and in Heaven, our eternal reward. Amen.
