Father, hear our urgent prayer for your grace, hope, healing, and reconciliation in this struggling marriage. Give both husband and wife new eyes to see each other and the power to make a new start in hope and love. Blunt the attacks of the devil by the sword of St. Michael and their guardian angels, surround them with the light and power of the Holy Spirit and grant them the grace of the sacrament of marriage and of confirmation to draw their live from you. Mother Mary and St. Joseph, pray for them. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.<\/p>\n
