PRAYER FOR VICTIMS OF ABUSE
Praise to you, Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
source of all consolation and hope.
By your Sons’s dying and rising
he remains our light in every darkness,
our strength and every weakness. Be the refuge and guardian
of all who suffered from abuse and violence.
Comfort them and send them healing
for their wounds of body, mind, and spirit.
Rescue them from bitterness and shame
and refresh them with your love.
Heal the brokeness in all victims of abuse
and revive the spirits of all who lament this sin.
Help us to follow Jesus
in drawing good from evil, life from death.
Make us one with you in your love for justice
as we deepen our respect
for the dignity of every human life.
Giver of peace, make us one
in celebrating your praise,
both now and forever. Amen

Bambinelli Sunday
Bambinelli Sunday, celebrated on the Third Sunday of Advent, is a tradition started by Pope St. John Paul II. Families bring the Baby Jesus (Bambinelli), from their home Nativity sets to church for a special blessing.

At all the Masses this weekend, we’ll celebrate this beautiful tradition at Canadian Martyrs. As you take your Bambinelli home and place them in the Nativity scene, you are symbolically preparing your heart and home for the arrival of Christ at Christmas. Let’s celebrate together, deepening our Advent journey with this cherished tradition!
