Domestic Advent Christmas prayers logos   

 Grant your faithful, we pray, almighty God, the resolve to run forth to meet your Christ with righteous deeds at his coming, so that, gathered at his right hand, they may be worthy to possess the heavenly kingdom. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever, Amen.


 


 


 


 


 Almighty and merciful God, may no earthly undertaking hinder those who set out in haste to meet your Son, but may our learning of heavenly wisdom gain us admittance to his company.


Who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever, Amen.


 


 


 


 O God, who sees how your people faithfully await the feast of the Lord’s Nativity, enable us, we pray, to attain the joys of so great a salvation and to celebrate them always with solemn worship and glad rejoicing. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the Unity of the Holy Spirit, one God for ever and ever, Amen.


 


 


 


 


 


 O God, who wonderfully created the dignity of human nature and still     


more wonderfully restored it, grant, we pray, that we may share in


the divinity of Christ, who humbled himself to share in our humanity.


Who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one


God, for ever and ever, Amen.


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 O God, who were pleased to give us the shining example of the Holy Family, graciously grant that we may imitate them in practicing the virtues of family life and in the bonds of charity, and so, in the joy of your house, delight one day in eternal rewards. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever, Amen.
