Wrap Your Gift in Prayer
You are invited to share the gift of HOPE this Christmas by wrapping the people in your life in prayer. If you are physically exchanging gifts or cards you can use the downloadable Gift Prayer Tags.
Especially at this time, the gift of text, email and social media, such as Facebook, keep us connected. You may attach an Electronic Gift Prayer Tag Image (below) to your message of Christmas greeting. Your prayer and witnessing to it may be just what are needed to kindle a renewed HOPE in God’s Providence for someone feeling the burden of our ongoing challenges.

Choose from the prayer guide below or pray in your own way.
Imagine – visualize the person for whom you pray. Picture the Lord blessing them.
Speak – pray out loud, “Lord surround (name) with your light, fill (name) with your peace.”
Sing – a Christmas carol. Gesture – dedicate the use of your hand motions in wrapping as your prayer.
Hear – simply repeat the person’s name knowing that the Lord hears our every prayer.
Recite – a pre-written prayer, Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be, Rosary…
Act – reach out to someone in need of the gift of your care.
Struggling – in a relationship you can still pray in this way, “Lord, bless (name) and transform me to set me free.”
