"Let the children come to me." (Mt. 19:14)

Loving Father, you look with compassion on all your children, especially those who are vulnerable.

May we work to create a world in which every child has access to food, clean water, shelter, education, health care, and all other basic rights.

May we teach youth about their role in working for peace, justice and the common good. 

May we act together to ensure that the lives and dignity of children everywhere can be respected. Amen.

Here at Holy Name, we look to sainted champions, heroes if you will, in the Church, to help us bring together and inform our youth. We seek not only their guidance, but also their intercession for us as we strive to build a strong foundation of faith, hope, and charity in the lives of the children at Holy Name Catholic Church. Please join us in asking for their intercession for our church, and all churches, that we as ministers to the young may instill in them the knowledge of the True Love of Jesus Christ.
