  4. Prayer Eternal and Almighty God, who makes all things new, We thank you that today you have allowed us to begin a new year. We make our resolutions for the days to come. We resolve to be faithful and true to those who love us And loyal to those who are our friends, So that we may never bring worry to their minds or hearts. We resolve to live in forgiveness and in kindness, that, like Jesus, we may go about always doing good. We resolve to live in diligence and effort, that we may use the full gifts and the talents that God has given us.

  5. We resolve to live in goodness and purity, that we may resist temptation, and that we may be strong for others who are tempted. We resolve to show our love for God by keeping his Commandments, and ask Jesus to bless us with his peace and joy for doing this. Grant us the strength to keep these resolutions and to make new ones through the coming year. Amen.
