Today let's pray for all members of the family for grandparents, parents,

children and grandchildren. St. Monica is the patron saint of mothers and wives and the vocation of being a mother and father is extremely

important in our society and in the eyes of God. We would like to pray for all mothers and

fathers to be good and holy examples for their children.

St. Monica prayed diligently for her children for years on end, so let's ask her to

pray for the children and grandchildren in our lives. Here are the prayers for today.

Day 2.

In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.

Dear St. Monica, you were once the mournful mother of a prodigal son.

Your faithfulness to prayer brought you and your son so close to God that you are now with

him an eternity. By your intercession and God's grace, your son, Saint Augustine, became a great and

venerable saint of the church.

Please take my request to God with the same fervor and persistence

with which you prayed for your own son.

Pension your intentions here. on your needs, worries, and anxieties, you through yourself on the mercy and providence of God.

Through sorrow and pain, you constantly devoted yourself to God.

Pray for me that I may join you in such a deep faith in God's goodness and mercy.

Above all, dear St. Monica, pray for me that I may, like your son, turn for my sin and become a great saint for the glory of God.

Amen.
