NUPTIAL BLESSING
PRIEST Let us pray to the Lord for ELREY ELMOORE and RETSELL who come to God’s
altar at the beginning of their married life so that they may always be united
in love for each other.
Holy Father, You created mankind in Your image and made man and woman
to be joined as husband and wife in union of body and heart and so fulfill their
mission in this world. Lord, grant that as they begin to live this sacrament,
they may share with each other the gifts of Your love and become one heart
and mind as witnesses to Your presence in their marriage.
Give your blessings to RETSELL, Your daughter, so that she may be a good wife
and mother, caring for the home, faithful in love for her husband, generous and
kind.
Give your blessings to ELREY ELMOORE, Your son, so that he may be a faithful
husband and a good father.
Father, keep them always true to Your commandments.
Keep them faithful in marriage and let them be living examples of Christian life.
Bless them with children and help them to be good parents. May they live to see
their children’s children. And, after a happy old age, grant them fullness of life
with the saints in the kingdom of heaven. We ask this through Christ our Lord.
ALL Amen.

Prayers of Blessings
DR. ARIEL C. RONATO Lord, be in this blessing that we give ELREY ELMOORE
and RETSELL. We know that there are adjustments and the need for
growing up ahead of them. Just as their love for each other and for you
has sustained them up to this moment, let their love continue to
sustain them in the days ahead and let them believe in your helping
them so that they will grow together in your care. May the home they
form be full of Your peace and joy, O God. May it always help others to
know You are present and part of their life. May the gift of fatherhood
be on ELREY ELMOORE and the gift of motherhood be on RETSELL and
that His gift of Parenthood be fully blest with Your sustaining love and
grace for this couple. Through Jesus Christ, the Lord of our lives. Amen.
