For children

To pray for your children, your grandchildren, or the children you love. And so that they can pray too.

Angel of God

Angel of God,
my guardian dear,
to whom God’s love commits me here,
ever this day be at my side,
to light and guard, to rule and guide.
Amen.

A verse to pray with

Mark 10:14

Whom when Jesus saw, he was much displeased, and saith to them: Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not; for of such is the kingdom of God.

In our own words

Jesus, friend of children, watch over the children I love. May they grow up healthy, happy, and good, close to you. May their guardian angel always walk beside them. Amen.
