Every home deserves a blessing. Every doorway, every corner, every place of rest — invited into the protection and love of God. This House Blessing prayer card carries one of the most cherished blessings in the Christian tradition, a prayer that has been spoken over homes for generations, asking God to fill every room with His grace and peace.

At ShopCatholic, we believe a home is more than walls and a roof — it’s where faith is lived, where families are formed, where God is welcomed in. Designed by Shawn Kilgarlin, a wife, mother of four, and mental health clinician from Shreveport, Louisiana, this card is made to be placed in a new home, tucked into a housewarming gift, or hung near the front door as a daily reminder of whose house it really is. Laminated with gold accents, beautiful enough to display, durable enough to last.

This card makes a meaningful gift for anyone — Catholic or not — who believes in the power of prayer and wants God’s blessing over their home and family.

🏠 The Blessing

God bless the corners of this house,
And be the lintel blest;
And bless the hearth and bless the board
And bless each place of rest;
And bless each door that opens wide
To stranger as to kin;
And bless each crystal window pane
That lets the starlight in;
And bless the rooftree overhead
And every sturdy wall.
The peace of man, the peace of God,
The peace of love on all. Amen.
