Child Protection Sunday Prayer (Sunday13 September 2020)

Lord, You asked that little children be allowed to come to you;

for it is such as these that the Reign of God belongs.

You entrust them to the care and protection of our communities

of faith.

Guide us as we strive to ensure that our Catholic

communities provide a safe environment for each child.

We pray especially for all those who have been harmed in their

childhood.

Give them courage in facing the past and lead them

to your healing protection.

Amen.
