“Christian parents are obligated to pray for their children because, by nature, their vocation is to bring the family into communion with God.”
Sis. Christy Eslao
Sis. Christy Eslao led the third topic on the Power of a Praying Family track, the Power of Praying Parents. The most important duty of the parent is to teach children to love and serve God because they are the first teachers of the Catholic faith. The same way that children are commanded by God to honor their father and mother, parents and people in authority also has the duty to honor, respect and love their children.
The topic was supplemented by Sis. Susan Fernandez and Sis. Nida Rocas who both shared their experiences in praying for their children, now adults and some with children of their own, that are still active members of different church groups particularly, the Servants of Jesus Community. Indeed, prayer is the most effective weapon of parents to raise Godly children!
