Our readings today emphasize that the family is a bridge, a spiritual community,
a factory of love and a living cell.

Thursday........................ 7:00-9:00 pm (English/Español)
The Book of Sirach tells us how human life is connected across genera ons. We
should carefully observe respect and care for our parents as they become older,
weaker, more easily distracted, and respect their legacy and Chris an faith. The
family is a community in which one genera on cares for another; the family is a
bridge that connects genera ons and transfers both civic and faith-based values.

The family is also a spiritual community. St. Paul writes to the Colossians about
the virtues that hold a church or family together: pa ence, forgiveness and joint
prayer. It would be nice if the whole Chris an life unfolded automa cally with
our Bap sm. But it doesn’t happen that way. We learn within the family how to
be a Chris an - to pray, to be pa ent, to reconcile, to be bridge-builders.

The family is the factory of love where we start to learn the virtues of
uncondi onal love, generosity, responsibility, coopera on, goodness, selfdiscipline, self-control, faith, charity, love of God and dealing with authority. The
family is the tes ng-ground for how deeply parents have engrained these
Chris ans virtues in their children. It is a factory of faith where the rough edges
get smoothed, where shape and structure come into our lives, where we start to
learn how to be good persons and what it takes to follow Christ.
Each family is a living cell of the Body of Christ, the larger Church. That is part of
the wisdom of the Holy Family coming to the Temple together as members of
the larger Jewish family, the chosen People of God. We are also - individually and
as a community - living cells, members of the Church Universal, the great family
of God, the chosen people, the Body of Christ.
Today, we li in humble prayer our families to the Holy Family to ask for healing,
faith, grace, determina on and strength, because family life is not easy today.
Many dark forces inﬂuence our family members, especially our youngest ones.
This Holy Family Sunday is not simply a chance to reﬂect on family life in general,
but to decide how we can strengthen our own family’s life in the coming year.
That kind of decision can only be made in each individual home. Are we keeping
the faith legacy of our ancestors? Are we transferring Chris an values to future
genera ons, to our children? Are we models of uncondi onal love, generosity,
coopera on, responsibility, goodness, selfdiscipline, self-control, faith, charity, love of
God and respect to authority? Are our
families true factories of Chris an love?

A Family Blessing
O God, you have created us in love and saved us in mercy, and
through the bond of marriage you have established the family
and willed that it should become a sign of Christ's love for his
church. Shower your blessings on this family gathered here in
your name. Enable those who are joined by one love to support
one another by their fervor of spirit and devo on to prayer.
Make them responsive to the needs of others, and witnesses to
the faith in all they say and do. We ask this through Christ our
Lord. Amen.
OR
In good mes and in bad, in sickness and in health, we belong
to each other as we belong to you, God ever faithful. By
morning and by night may your name be on our lips, a blessing
to all our days: so may kindness and pa ence be ever among
us, a hunger for jus ce, and songs of thankfulness in all we do.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Household Blessings and Prayers, Na onal Conference of Catholic Bishops (1988)
Prayer For A New Year
God, thank you for a new year. May everyone in our family be
willing to begin anew with a clean slate. We know that you are
always ready to forgive us. Help us to be willing to forgive
ourselves and to forgive one another.
As we begin a new year, remind us of our truest values and our
deepest desires. Help us to live in the goodness that comes
from doing what you want us to do. Help us to put aside
anxiety about the future and the past, so that we might live in
peace with you now, one day at a me.
