Catholic Prayers for Family, Marriage, Children & Homes
The Second Vatican Council called the Catholic family the "Ecclesia Domestica" — the Domestic Church. Prayer within and for the family sanctifies the matrimonial bond, guards children against spiritual danger, and opens the door for reconciliation and generational blessings.
“As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.”
— Joshua 24:15
