Day 7 - Christmas Novena Prayers:

Peace be with you!
 
Today, let us pray for all parents and godparents. They have an important role in bringing up a child who is brought into the world. 
 
Just like the Lord was presented in the temple, our children are presented in the Church for Baptism. There, parents and godparents take on the responsibility for bringing up a child in the faith. 
 
So, today we pray for all parents and godparents. We pray also for those children who have no one to present them in the Church for Baptism. We pray that God will eventually bring them to His family and that they may be welcomed with open arms!
 
Let's also continue praying for the victims of the recent shooting in Connecticut.
 
Here are the novena prayers for today:

Opening Prayer:
 
V. O God, come to my assistance.
R. O Lord, make haste to help me.
 
Glory be to the Father...
 
Our Father...
 
The Presentation
 
O most sweet infant Jesus, presented in the temple
by the Virgin Mary, embraced by Simeon, and revealed
to the Jews by Anna the prophetess. 
 
Have mercy on us.
 
Have mercy on us, O Lord. Have mercy on us.
 
Hail Mary...
 
Amen.
 

I just wanted to remind you that you are praying with thousands of people from around the world.
 
Don't forget to pray for their intentions today too!
 
God bless you!
