Prayers
Prayer to end child abuse What has happened to the world Lord Jesus that so many abuse the children? Many look away and hide the crimes, they do not cry out for justice. You said the children are the most important in the Kingdom, To accept a child, you said, is to accept you.
Bring the children to me you told the disciples that they be blessed and protected.
You said let the abusers be brought to account and do penance as if a mill stone were tied around their necks and they be thrown into the deep sea, you said Lord in Matthew (Ch.18: 6-7)
Lord, inspire us and strengthen our faith by your words and actions, that goodness, love of neighbor and action for justice will over come evil. Inspire us to save and heal the children through justice, peace so they can live a new happier life. Amen by Father Shay Cullen Profiles in Catholicism
Prayer for abused children
Lord we have seen and heard the children cry and pour out their
suffering and their pain,
They cry to you to rescue them from the abusers and the shame,
That is unjustly heaped upon them as if they were to blame,
while the abusers walk free and unsullied is their name.
Lord bring the abusers to justice and give the children closure, peace and freedom,
May they know they are the most important in your friendship and your kingdom.
To receive a child you said is to welcome and be one with you ,
Inspire us Lord to fight for their dignity and their rights
and give healing and a life that is wonderful and new.
Amen.
by Father Shay Cullen Profiles in Catholicism
