God our Father, you govern and protect your people and 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 befaithful to the example shown to us in sacred Scripture: that they be steadfast in love, forgiving and merciful, sustaining their families, and caring for the poor and the oppressed.
We pray for wisdom for our fathers and grandfathers, that they may encourage and guide their children, their families, and members of our community.
Guide our fathers, grandfathers, and great 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 them today – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. AMEN.
