As part of their school missions project this year, the year 2 classes are writing a prayer for somebody different every month. During May, the month of Our Lady, they devote their prayer to her.
We are doing this because Jesus said: ‘I tell you therefore: everything you ask and pray for, believe that you have it, already, and it will be yours.’
The children will pray this prayer in school each day. It would be great if you could include it in the prayers you say with your children at home, especially if they are in year 2.
Heavenly Father,
Thank you for the emergency services,
Bless the police for keeping us safe and guarded.
Protect and bless the fire brigade for sacrificing their own safety to save us.
Bless the ambulance service who treat us when we are injured and unwell.
Bless the coast guard for keeping us protected near water.
Bless the armed forces who put themselves in danger every day to secure our freedom and keep us safe.
Lord our Father please protect all of our services,
Amen.
St. Gregory pray for us.
