The New Year is upon us once again dear God. We thank you for another fruitful year that has passed. We are aware that without your divine providence and guidance, we may not have been able to survive the year and succeed in our endeavors.

May we obtain your blessings in this New Year so that we could plan based on what you want us to do. May we have New Year’s resolutions that are congruent with your all abounding love and generosity; that our plans for the succeeding year should not only for our success but also the triumph of others.

Let us realize that without your blessings, we are nothing and none of our plans would succeed. Because it is only through you that everything is possible. It is only through helping others that we also help ourselves.

Bless everyone present here today; our loved ones, friends, and all mankind that peace would reign and love would prevail.

We pray in the Almighty name of God, Amen.

Dear Father in heaven,

As we gather here together to celebrate this new year,

May your bountiful blessings come upon our loved ones
and everyone present here in this gathering.

We pray also for those who are not present in our midst.

May you bless them all with peace and happiness.

May all those who suffer in hospital beds feel the soothing balm of your presence.

May all those in jail houses discern your saving grace.

May all those who are at war, learn your forgiving ways.

May all those who suffer in poverty see the richness of your blessings.

Give them the strength and grace to endure and persevere.

We also pray for “peace on earth and goodwill to all men.”

As we celebrate this new year, we thank you for all blessings.

May we continue meeting our daily challenges with faith in your goodness.

May our lives serve as witnesses to your all-abounding generosity and love.

All these, we ask through Christ , our Lord, Amen.
