Whether your grandchildren live with you, just around the corner, or a thousand miles away, praying for them every day is one of the most important ways you can show your love and concern. And when you are searching for the right words, Bless My Grandchild is the prayer book you need. This follow-up to Julie Cragon’s bestseller, Bless My Child, combines original and traditional prayers and devotions that will help you place the joys and worries you experience as a grandparent in the hands of God.

There are prayers for:
- the first day of school,
- adoption,
- learning to read,
- courage,
- sacramental milestones, and
- illness or death of a friend, family member, or pet.
The book concludes with traditional prayers and novenas that you can teach a grandchild or offer on their family’s behalf, including the novena to St. Jude, “Stations of the Cross for My Grandchild,” the Angelus, and “Consecration of the Family.”
