Thank you for our fathers

On the eve of Father's day here in Australia, let's pray for those men who are lost, for those who cause grief and pain to our world, so that they may find sanity and once again become human.
Let's pray for our young men, growing up the midst of war, poverty and abuse. May they heal and bring about change in their worlds.

Let's give thanks for all the men in our families and around the globe for they complete our family circles and work hard to support their partners and children. Lastly, let's give thanks for those who have gone beyond this world, for they are in our hearts, immortalised in future generations.
