Almighty and eternal God, you are the everlasting health of those who believe in you. Hear us for your sick servant, this little boy, for whom we implore the aid of your tender mercy, that being restored to bodily health, he may give thanks to you in your church. Through Christ our Lord. AMEN

Heavenly Father,
we are reminded by the Second Vatican Council
that our family is a domestic Church
where family prayer and mutual affection
pay you special worship.
Help us to be a family of love,
support, forgiveness and courage.
We ask this through Christ, our Lord.
