Blessing Over The Graduates

God has loved us through you!

May the God of Peace continue to bless and enlighten you, for you have been called to be the people of the Gospel. Today, you respond to God's gift of grace with justice, service, and kindness. May the Holy Spirit strengthen you to live with courage and understanding. We, your parents, pray that your life's journey be filled with many blessings, through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Blessing Over The Parents

May our loving God bless you with every good gift. You have cleared the paths of our lives with the beauty of your devotion. Through patience and trust, offered from a knowing heart, you have brought us to this moment of grace. As you have shared life and love with us, may you receive a double portion of the Spirit of God. Amen.
