Blessing Grove is a free collection of blessings and prayers for American families. Every page is organized by moment, such as mornings, holidays, birthdays and Bible readings, so you can find fitting words fast.

A blessing is a spoken or written wish for someone’s good health, peace, safety or success. People share blessings at meals, birthdays, holidays and farewells to show care and ask for God’s favor on loved ones.

Start with the moment and the person. Pick a short blessing for a card or text, and a longer one for a meal or gathering. Read it aloud once to be sure it sounds like you.

The Aaronic blessing is a prayer from Numbers 6:24 to 26 that begins with The Lord bless you and keep you. Many churches and families use it to close a service or bless children at bedtime.
