Heavenly Father,
Creator of all and Giver of every good gift,
on this Father's Day we lift up all fathers to You—
those living and those who have gone before us.
We thank You for the gift of fatherhood,
for the men who have embraced this sacred vocation
with love, courage, and sacrifice.
Bless all fathers with wisdom like St. Joseph,
gentleness like St. Joachim,
and steadfast faith like Abraham.
May they lead their families with humility and strength,
guiding them in truth and love.
For fathers who struggle, feel weary, or carry burdens unseen,
grant them Your peace and the support of Your grace.
For fathers who are separated from their children,
bring reconciliation and healing.
For those who long to be fathers,
fill them with hope and the knowledge of Your perfect plan.
Lord, help us to honor our fathers with gratitude and respect.
May their hearts be renewed in You today and always,
and may they know how deeply they are loved.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
St. Joseph, guardian of the Holy Family, pray for us.
