Prayers for our Reconciliation Candidates

Family/Community prayer for Reconciliation Candidates:
Loving God, help us to teach our children that you love us totally and unconditionally.
Help us to encourage our children to grow in love and to learn how to say sorry, knowing that you always forgive.
Give us the courage to pray with our children and to share our faith with them as we journey together.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
Reconciliation Candidate Prayer:
Loving God, as we prepare to receive your grace through reconciliation, help us to understand the power of forgiveness, both for ourselves and for others.
May we approach this sacrament with open hearts, seeking to heal and grow in your love.
Guide us to be instruments of peace and reconciliation in our school, our families, and our communities.
Amen
