SEIGNEUR, BENIS NOS FAMILLES

Dieu, notre Père,

béni sois-tu pour le don de la vie familiale. Nous te prions pour que nos

familles soient dans le monde le signe visible de ton amour éternel.

Donne aux époux la grâce de construire jour après jour un amour vrai,

patient et humble.

Qu'ils soient pour leurs enfants une image fidèle de ton Alliance, prompts à

encourager, à partager et à pardonner.

Fais grandir dans le cœur des enfants et des jeunes la confiance en leurs

parents et le désir de conformer leur vie à ta volonté. Qu'ils déploient

l'énergie de leur jeunesse à découvrir la vocation de bonheur et de liberté que

tu as pour eux.

Seigneur Jésus,

regarde avec bonté les familles éprouvées par les soucis matériels,

la maladie et la mort.

Tu nous donnes la vie dans ton Eucharistie : viens demeurer en nous et y faire

croître ta paix, ta joie.

Esprit Saint,

donne-nous la force de persévérer dans la foi, de vivre chaque jour de ta

miséricorde, de surmonter les épreuves.

Donne-nous d'être des soutiens fraternels pour ceux qui ne connaissent pas la

chaleur familiale.

Ouvre nos cœurs à la volonté du Père, viens éclairer nos décisions et unifier

nos vies pour que nous œuvrions à l'avènement du Royaume des cieux.

Trinité sainte,

fais lever dans nos familles les époux, les parents, les prêtres et les religieux

de demain.

Amen

The Alzheimer Society Research Program (ASRP) is a collaborative initiative of the provincial Alzheimer Societies, the Alzheimer Society of Canada, partners, and the valuable donors who support research directed at both eradicating dementia and improving the lives of those affected by it.

The ASRP targets two types of research:1. Biomedical: Focusing on the science of the brain and the changes that are associated with dementia and identifying therapeutic targets to reverse, stop or cure the disease

2. Quality of Life (QoL): Exploring issues that impact the lives of people with dementia and their caregivers, including risk factors, behavioural and cognitive changes, physical support, caregiving and health service delivery
