Catholic Culture Corner

On this Solemnity of the Holy Family, I would en-courage you all to consecrate your families to the Holy Family:

O Jesus, our most loving Redeemer, Who having come to enlighten the world

with Your teaching and example, willed to pass the greater part of Your life in humility and subjection to Mary and Joseph in the poor home of Nazareth,

thus sanctifying the Family that was to be an example for all Christian families,

graciously receive our family as it dedicates and consecrates itself to You this day.

Defend us, guard us and establish among us Your holy fear, true peace and concord in Christian love,

in order that by conforming ourselves to the divine pattern of Your Family,

we may be able, all of us without exception, to attain to eternal happiness.

Mary, dear Mother of Jesus and Mother of us,

by your kind intercession make this our humble offering acceptable in the sight of Jesus,

and obtain for us His graces and blessings.

Saint Joseph, most holy Guardian of Jesus and Mary, assist us by your prayers

in all our spiritual and temporal necessities, that we may be able to praise our divine Savior Jesus,

together with Mary and you, for all eternity. Amen.

Conclude by praying the Our Father, Hail Mary and Glory Be three times.

Merry Christmas!—Fr. Oiland
