Buon giorno a tutti,

A relative was given a gift of a prayer card in Italian, which she'd like to have translated. I can give her the sense of it, but I'd like to get an accurate translation if possible:

O Dio, Padre buono e misericordioso, che hai scelto S. Antonio come testimone del vangelo e messagero di pace, ascolta la preghiera che ti rivolgo per sua intercessione.

Santifica ogni famiglia, aiutala a crescere nella fede; conserva in essa l'unità, la pace, la serenità. Benedici i nostri figli, proteggi i giovani.

Apri la mia anima all'amore generoso e sincero verso i fratelli, in modo che io sia dispoto a incontrarli e aiutarli se sono nel bisogno, soccererli quando sono malati, sofferenti, soli.

Sostienimi ogni giorno con la tua amicizia e donami il tuo amore.

Apologies for any typos in there: it's hard to proofread a language you don't speak.

Thanks!

18AD

"Oh God, good and merciful Father, who has chosen St. antonio as witness of the gospel and messenger of peace, listen to the prayers that I divulge to you for your intercession.

Santify every family, help to grow in faith, conserve the unity, peace and serenity. Bless our children, protect the young.

Open my soul to generous and sincere love the brothers, so that I can arrange to help them if they are in need, aid them if they are sick, suffering or alone.

Support me every day with your friendliness and give me your love."

Could be too late with this
Probably not the most flowery english I could have used really.
Peace.
