Querido Padre Celestial,
Gracias por este día. Gracias por todo lo que haces por mí cada día, incluso por aquello que a veces no percibo. Gracias por cuidar de mi familia, amigos y conocidos. Te pido que los protejas, los guíes en esta vida y los lleves sanos y salvos a tu lado. Hazles saber que siempre estás con ellos. Nunca permitas que olvide tu presencia en mi vida y guíame con seguridad a través de ella.
Lord, I humbly seek Your favor. Please touch the hearts of the young, helping them to appreciate the sacred gift of marriage and the delicate sounds of children. Enlighten their vision to see the profound beauty in sharing life with someone they love deeply. May they be open to both the joys and the sorrows that come with the bond of marriage, and to the unique joys and challenges that children bring into their lives.
Dear Heavenly Father, guide me to be the light others need to find their way back to You, never hiding my light under a bushel basket. Grant peace within to those who seek it. I ask for Your protection and guidance over our country, our political officials, our clergy, and people throughout the world. Inspire those in positions of influence—our leaders, entertainers, athletes, and business leaders—to embrace Your love and reflect it to others as members of Your family. May their light shine brightly, drawing others into Your presence. Help us to see one another as You see us.
I ask for conversion and mercy for all sinners, and mercy for the souls in purgatory. I pray for the healing of the sick, if it be Your will. Help those who are struggling to walk with You through the trials and tribulations of their lives. Thank You, Lord, for the life You have given me. I ask that Your angels fight fiercely against the powers of evil that beset our world, including the archangels appointed over each nation. Bring Your peace to every country and every people.
Dear Heavenly Father, we lift before You the people of Afghanistan,
those who rise each day carrying burdens unseen, those who endure quietly, trusting You for tomorrow.
Be near to the mothers who worry for their children, the fathers who labor without certainty, and the elders who remember gentler days.
Protect the children, Lord, guard their innocence, feed their bodies,
and shelter their hearts from fear.
Strengthen those who feel forgotten. Let Your presence be known in small mercies: a shared meal, a warm blanket, a kind voice.
Preserve the soul of this people, their stories, their music, their poetry,
and the wisdom passed quietly from generation to generation.
Where despair threatens, plant courage. Where wounds remain, pour Your healing balm. Lord, keep them in Your care.
Que tu Espíritu llene a los jóvenes de propósito y les abra puertas de oportunidad que los afiancen en la fe. Que la corrupción sea reemplazada por la justicia, y que cada líder camine en tu luz.
Dear Lord, we implore You to envelop all restless souls awake in the stillness of this night with Your peace. We lift before You those on our prayer list—Madeline, Araceli, Edward, Ruby, Jame, Mary Jo, James—and all people throughout the world. We remember especially those in desperate need: the weary sleeping on the streets, under bridges, in hospitals, and their families.
Help our teens draw closer to You. Uplift those with mental disabilities, those who wander in doubt of Your existence, and those suffering from Alzheimer’s disease and terminal illnesses.
Be especially near to those who will meet You this day; grant them a peaceful passing, the comfort of Your mercy, and eternal rest.
Oramos por un mayor número de hombres y mujeres que ingresen a la vida religiosa. También oramos por quienes sufren violencia por parte de almas perdidas.
Señor, intercede por todos los pueblos. Muéstrales cómo resolver sus diferencias sin peleas, disturbios ni daño mutuo. Abre nuestros ojos a la belleza de ponerte a Ti en primer lugar en nuestras vidas y vivir juntos en paz.
Bless the work of our hands and the care of the world You have entrusted to us, that all labor may be done with dignity, honesty, and love.
Ojalá todos comprendamos que las diferentes opiniones no tienen por qué dividirnos, sino que pueden conducirnos a una comprensión más profunda.
Gracias, Señor, por estar en nuestras vidas. Tu presencia es la belleza que vemos en ellas.
Nos presentamos ante Ti buscando tu guía para el Papa León XIV. Haz de él un instrumento puro, lleno de tu Espíritu Santo. Que ninguna influencia mundana aparte su corazón de Ti. Que cada palabra que pronuncie refleje tu verdad y esté en consonancia con la Sagrada Escritura. Que su voluntad se someta plenamente a la tuya, y que tus ángeles lo protejan de todo mal.
Te pedimos que nuestros lugares de culto estén siempre llenos y que las capillas de adoración perpetua nunca estén vacías. Protege a nuestro clero, fortalécelo y ayúdalo a permanecer fiel a la misión que le has encomendado.
Elevamos cada intención, expresada o no, que albergamos en nuestros corazones.
En tu santo nombre oramos. Te adoramos y que nuestro amor por ti crezca cada día más.
Amén.

As we begin a new year, I want to speak a word of gratitude.
To those who prayed alongside me in 2025—thank you. There were moments when continuing felt difficult, and your quiet presence, your faithfulness, and your shared prayers carried this work forward when my own strength felt thin. God used you to keep this prayer alive.
To those joining in 2026—welcome. Whether you pray often or only when you are able, your prayer matters here.
As this new year opens before us, may God bless you for every unseen prayer.
May He meet you in the stillness, strengthen you in weariness,
and remind you that no prayer offered in love is ever wasted.
This year may bring small changes in how these prayers are shared, but the heart remains the same: to rise—or to pause—together, and to place the world gently into God’s hands.
May the Lord bless you in the year ahead,
and reward you for every quiet act of faithfulness.
