Lord, You are the only one who weighs everything, who is able to do everything, and who wants to save everyone and come into the understanding of the Truth. Enlighten my children (names) with the knowledge of Your truth and Your Holy will, strengthen them to walk according to Your commandments and have mercy on the least sinner. Amen.

Merciful Lord, Jesus Christ, I entrust to You my children whom You have given to me, fulfill my prayer. I ask You, Lord, save them in the ways in which You Yourself are.

Save them from vices, evil, pride, and let nothing that is contrary to You touch their souls. But grant them faith, love and hope for salvation, and may their life path be holy and blameless before God.

Bless them, Lord, may they strive every minute of their lives to fulfill Your Holy will, so that You, Lord, can always abide with them by Your Holy Spirit.

Lord, teach them to pray to You, so that prayer may be their support, consolation in sorrow and the consolation of their lives, and so that by their prayer we, their parents, may be saved.

May Your angels always protect them. May my children be sensitive to the grief of their neighbors, and may they fulfill Your commandment of love. And even if they sin, then grant them, Lord, to bring repentance to You, and You, in Your ineffable mercy, forgive them.

When their earthly life ends, then take them to Your Heavenly Abodes, where let them lead with them your other chosen servants.

Through the prayers of Your Most Pure Mother of God and the Ever-Virgin Mary and Your saints (all holy families are listed), Lord, have mercy on us, for You are glorified with the Beginning Your Father and Your Most Holy and Good and Life-Giving Spirit, now and ever, and to the ages of ages. Amen.
