God our Father, you govern and protect your people and you shepherd them with a father’s love.
You place a father in our families and in our communities as a sign of your love, care, and protection.
We pray for our fathers with us today that they may be faithful to the example shown to us in sacred Scripture: steadfast in love, forgiving and merciful, sustaining their families, and caring for the poor and the oppressed.
We pray for wisdom for our fathers. that they may encourage and guide their children and members of our community.
Guide our fathers and grandfathers with the Spirit of your love.
May they grow in holiness and draw their family ever closer to you.
We ask this blessing for all of our fathers and grandfathers – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. AMEN.
