Let us Pray

Prayer at the Dining Table

(Before Eating)

“O Taste and see how good the Lord is”

“Glory to the Father, the Son , and the Holy Spirit.

Make O Lord Your nourishment, fullness, abundance and blessings dwell at this table which You have prepared for Your servants and worshippers. Pour upon it your goodness and blessings, which never end and never run out, having mercy and compassion upon all Your creation, O Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, now, always and forever.”

“Our Father who are in Heaven…”

After Eating

“Glory be to God for His goodness. Glory be to God for His blessings. Glory be to God who has nourished us out of His goodness. Glory be to God who has fed us.  Glory be to God from Whose kindness we live.  Glory be to God the merciful.  May His Mercies be upon all of us by the prayers of the Mother of God Mary and of all the Saints, for ever and ever.  Amen “

“Our Father who are in Heaven…”
