While each blessing was unique, and while each wife and child we named has their own story, this was the core of what I was led to pray over each man:
"I anoint you in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, to fulfill the ministry God has given to you: to be a Christian husband/father/son.
May you receive the blessing of God to be a blessing to your home.
May you willingly sacrifice for your family:
May you intentionally speak words of blessing and affirmation over your family:
And may you faithfully pray for your family:
May you take ownership of your household.
May you fight for those God has entrusted to you.
May you be a good shepherd.
In Christ's Name,
Amen."
