Sweet Mother, we thank you for your ongoing intercession for Mufide. Please continue your prayers and pray with us for these most urgent needs: “Last Friday, I had sudden heart attack in the church during the Mass and went to emergency, they told me that I had many blood clots in my lungs that may affect my brain and my heart and after 5 days they discharged me and today I came to Church and I almost had another attack and Fr Francis also had a heart attack today during the Mass. And He has kidney stone too. So I came to ask you please to pray for us. Father Francis has not seen the doctor yet but waiting for the doctor to call back. Please pray for both of us. I just realised that as I got sick I had no body to ask you for prayers for me. If I die I have no one to intercede for me or for my family tree. My family tree members are not convert yet and do not know how to pray and do not understand the power of prayers and salvation at all. They are surrounded with ungodly friends and have many problems putting their lives in dangers and only giving their lives to Christ can rescue them. Please for Jesus sake pray for their conversions and holy vocations and salvation and that they will serve the Lord Jesus only and nobody and nothing else. And for the soul of my mother Nedime and all her dear ones both living and dead and all my special intentions. God Bless and protect and reward you, you In Jesus Mighty Name I pray. Mufide”

Holy Mother Mary, we ask you to pray with us for J. and her family. On this, the Feast of the Holy Family, please intercede for them and bring them the Healing Peace of your Son, Jesu Christi: “For My husband wants a divorce. I’m committed to my marriage and love my husband, heart and soul. We’ve been together for over 10 yrs and have an 8 yr old daughter. I know he is having an emotional affair (praying that it hasn’t gone beyond that point) with a co-worker. He has also surrounded himself with people who enable him to make poor life choices. He has rejected Godly counsel and rejects the Godly men in his life. He’s told me he doesn’t feel connected to me anymore; that there is no fire; however he won’t allow us to really try either which tears at my heart. For the most part, our beautiful and intelligent little girl is holding up well enough. She is extremely smart and knows what is going on unfortunately. He has said some things to her that has hurt her dearly, and me. I remind her every day he loves her, as I do, and we both would do anything for her and to protect her always. I tell her that she need not worry about our adult issues and I reassure her I am working on them, praying for her daddy and for her to know God’s comfort, word and for guidance in how we choose to live our lives. We have seen a licensed Christian marriage counselor for 6 visits (he won’t go anymore). At our last session, my husband realized and admitted that he is not the man he was for the previous 30+ years. His personality and moral code has done a 180 degree turn and I don’t think he is ready to go back to the way he was but it is my fondest hope that he will see the light God is shining on him, he will turn around and hopefully make his way back to God and his family, and hopefully at least end up somewhere in the middle. I know he has a good heart but his cloudy thoughts, hurt feelings and his unhealthy relationships with certain friends are poisoning his mind, soul and heart. I pray numerous times a day that God will open his eyes and heart to the possibility of reconciliation and restoration (or I should say re-creation) of our marriage. I pray for the souls of his friend(s) that have gone astray and are helping my husband to make poor and self-centered choices. I pray that those coworkers/friends find their own path to God (hopefully not the same path my family is on) and find their way home. I am speaking with my pastor often and my daughter and I are attending church and bible study regularly. do realize our marriage problems aren’t entirely my husband’s fault. I placed my husband up on this tall, white pedestal that no one could remain on for very long. That pedestal should have been reserved for God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit, not my husband. Now he has fallen off, is hurt and wants to run away to something that is easier for him (at the moment at least, he doesn’t realize the long-term ramifications of his choices and how they aren’t better for anyone in our family). I had placed too much pressure on him to be perfect or to live up to what I thought he should be and that was wrong of me. He did the same to me as well and I didn’t live up to his standards and hopes either and I fell off my pedestal. We both broke our marriage. I have come to learn my sin of miss-communication, not being open about my needs, not being open enough for him to feel he could talk with me about his needs. I didn’t respect my husband properly, verbally or through my actions. I nagged and was very negative, enough so that it hurt him which is what sent him to look for someone else who could maybe give him what he wants (although that is not what he is getting now from his friend(s), not really, he hasn’t realized that just yet). Also we never truly sat down and talked with each other about our relationship, how he and I felt and never sought to get help early on in our marriage. I was blind due to my own selfish needs as he was as well. I didn’t know there was a problem till he said it was too late for our marriage. I don’t feel or believe it is too late for us. I pray it isn’t too late! I feel God has pressed upon me to bring him back to God, only in the right way this time, and in turn my husband will eventually find his way back to me and our daughter. I have been reading the bible, love and respect books, working the Love Dare and I am actively practicing what I have come to learn; to give him the unconditional respect and love he needs from me (even when he doesn’t act appropriately, it is his right not something he has to earn). I have apologized directly to him for all of my misgivings and sins against him. I hope and pray in time while we are taking things slowly (going through our things, fixing up our house to put it up for sale and becoming financially more stable by getting rid of unnecessary debt) that we will reconnect during this time and rebuild our marriage as it should be, under God’s guidance and authority. I’m trusting that God will see I’m trying to be the wife he wants me to be. I am honoring my covenant with God and my husband. I am trying to walk along side Christ, be more Christ like, and raise my daughter that way. I pray that God will help open my husband’s eyes and ears, speak to him directly and show him the way back home. Please pray: for our marriage to be restored and recreated in the way God wants for it to be; for my husband to hear and feel God’s love in his thoughts and dreams; to bring peace to his soul and to help heal his heart; and to rebuild a strong Christian-based foundation for our marriage rooted in God, love and respect. Thank you.”

Holy Mary, please join us in praying for this intention. Please press this beautiful prayer to your Son's Most Precious Heart: “Please will you pray for me. At the moment, I am entirely confused. I am not sure what to even ask you to pray for. I just know that the man I love has been ignoring me all day, and I am so upset about it and don’t know what to do. I wish there was a way to make him reply and realise what he is doing to me is so wrong and that God would come through for me and put an end to the mess we are in but bless us with a happy and fruitful relationship. Thanks so much for your prayers.”

Precious and Loving Mother, we entrust these intentions from T. to your most loving intercession: “I ask you for prayers, as there is a teacher in my school who is trying to create problems for me....She has a reputation in the school for telling lies and setting people one against the other. She also criticizes everyone and everything. Now her latest trick is trying to appear innocent and babyish, but carrying fire under water, backstabbing, and sneaking in a slimy way, and talking very sweetly to the face. Now she has managed to win the confidence of the Principal, Rev. Sister, by telling lots and lots of lies about me. As I do not wish to fight but remain silent and allow God to reveal the truth, I leave this prayer request, in your hands, and beg Divine Authority to take control of her tongue, which sows seeds of poison and division...that she be exposed...that the Principal may be enlightened and not fall into her trap, but the anointed One will cover the Principal and release light to realize the truth of who the real teacher is, and the dangers she—the Principal—can fall into by believing the falsehoods this teacher utters against others to achieve her personal ends. Thank You and God Bless you.”

He has healed from that but I am concerned that it is in the same location. This is a picture of him tonight as I just got him to sleep once the medication set in. Please pray for a speedy recovery.

May his family come through with promised support. I am only three months completed for a 13 month deployment, so Mike’s got a long way to go before my R&R and redeployment.” St. Michael, please protect Laura from all harm, insulate her from all anxiety during her deployment.

For me to understand why he keeps on giving to his family when our family is in need as well. Why can’t he see that they use his for his money and for him to let go and let them be on their own and not let them interfere with us. For him to see that the only way God can bless him with this job is to let go and marry me. For him to watch his words that he says to me and not take me for granted. For God to keep his hand on his heart so he will finally see what he has been doing wrong.”

On June 26, 1943, while carrying out a mission over Papau New Guinea (P.N.G.), their B-17E Flying Fortress, nicknamed Naughty but Nice, was damaged by anti-aircraft fire and ultimately shot down by Japanese fighter aircraft. A tenth man, the navigator and only survivor of the crash -- 2nd Lt. Jose L. Holguin -- was held as a prisoner of war until his release in September 1945. We are profoundly grateful to these brave men for their service to our country. Through their efforts, peace was achieved in the Pacific theater. We pray for their families and the loved ones they left behind. Heavenly Father, please bestow upon them Your Blessings. May they take great comfort in knowing their loved ones now rest in peace and on hallowed grounds with others who so valiantly served our country in times of peace and in times of war. Amen.

Holy Mary Mother of God and our mother, we place in your loving hands these prayerful intentions from Robin: “Eccl3:1 says; ‘To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven’…‘in the fullness of time.’ (Gal4:4). ‘This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of Him.’ ‘But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does.’ Jam1:8 Psalm 34:4 ‘I sought the Lord, and He heard me and delivered me from all my fears.’ B. and I. have really pushed my last button. Jesus, please deliver me from these two, unless I’m overacting as they say. If I’m not overacting and this really is what I think it is; please merciful Father deliver me immediately from this emotional distress and render me unharmed and ‘set a table before me in the presence of my enemies.’ Eph3:20 In Jesus’s Name I pray. Amen.”

Please ask Him to heal me, all the people I’ve hurt, and all those who have hurt me. And please pray that He may grant me happy, healthy, long-lasting friendships, if it is His Will, all for His Glory. Please, I feel so bad about everything. Despite my attempts to apologize and reconcile, these people won’t talk to me. Thank you for helping me. I will keep you in my prayers. God bless you.”

Please pray for some happiness for me and my daughter. I am so terribly lonely and spend so much time by myself because I have no one and no money. My daughter is now in college and I am paying her expenses but I am overwhelmed. I have so much debt. I want her to have a better life. She seems happy but she is still sad about not having a dad ever in her life. It was just the two of us for so many years struggling to survive. I am so terribly lonely and can’t afford to go out or do anything for me. It has been this way for 19 years. I just wish for some happiness and to know what it is to be loved and cared for. I pray for my daughter to have a better life and find a good man who is responsible and will be a good husband to her and good father to their children so that she can finally have a good family life. She deserves to have a good family. It was just us growing up so I pray she will know what a loving family unit with a dad/husband in the home is like. I don’t want her to struggle like I had to for survival. She is busy with school now and I hope her life will be better. We suffered for years all alone and had hard hard financial times. I pray for a better future for her. I also pray that I may finally find some happiness and know what that is. I am so terribly lonely it hurts. I am always alone and have no one now that my daughter is going to school away. It is so sad to always be on my own - my whole life was this way, it was hard and it hurts so much.”

My husband despite his anger, still loves me, and he still shows it. He even tells me he still loves me, though he fights it. We have been to counseling, and the counselor evaluated us and says that our marriage is worth saving, because it is obvious that we still love each other very much. Holy Mother, please heal my husband, bring him home. I need him, our family needs him, and HE NEEDS ME AND OUR FAMILY. Please ask your Son Jesus, to heal him, to fill him with the Holy Spirit, remove the spirits of bitterness, anger and especially the withdrawal.

Make our marriage better than before. I invite you Holy Mother, Your Son Jesus, and God our Father into our Marriage, home and family. Please I ask with all my heart, help us, don’t let our home and family be destroyed. I love you and thank you, Blessed Mother.”

Please press them to your Son’s Most Sacred Heart: "For our daughter on her birthday as she left our family almost a year ago. That she may feel our love for her and be drawn closer to Mary and her Son."

Heavenly Father, we thank you for the glorious gift of a much-need shower. It was a welcome respite from the unrelenting heat and drought…a dryness that has created great hardship for the creatures that must dwell in it. We pause to thank You, and we offer your praise for the gift of life…in times of drought as well as abundance, for You are a Merciful and Loving God, and we are Yours. Amen.

We thank you for the beautiful gifts she shared and for the beautiful family she raised. We pray for her peaceful repose with you in heaven. Mother Mary, we entrust her family and loved ones to your loving care. You know that she honored Your Son through her affectionate praying of your Most Holy Rosary, and we know that as she has passed that love on to her children, for they were reciting the Glorious Mysteries as Thelma left their loving care and went home to everlasting life. We continue our prayers for this faith-filled lady who was your prayer warrior here on earth. Amen.

Blessed Mother, we entrust Rebecca and her family to your prayers. “She needs a feeding tube, but has indicated she doesn’t want one and (her husband) has agreed to not pursue it. It is unclear if her lack of swallowing is an inability due to complications of MS or unwillingness or both. Prognosis is about 2 months without the tube. She has been and will starve and thirst to death.” Sweet Mother, please pray with us for Rebecca and for those who love her and struggle with her decision. We pray for their comfort and for their peace. We pray, too, that in this difficulty, God’s Love is inserted in ways that help them to find comfort as they face the challenges that may yet come. We ask this in the Name of Jesus, our Compassionate and Merciful Lord. Amen.

We pray for their healing, for their courage to go beyond their fears and expectations to a place where they can trust God, who loves them so passionately, and each other. Bring them calm and peace of mind and heart so that they can see beyond their disappointments and differences. Help them to extend themselves past their own fears to a place where they can love and serve the needs of the other. Please press them to your Son’s Healing Heart, for it is in His Heart that they can truly begin to love as our Father wants them to love. Mother, please help them as only a mother who loves like you can. Amen.

Sweet Mother Mary, we place these petitions from Filiberto in your most loving hands, and we ask you to pray with us for his needs: “Please pray my soul mate has already been prepared for me, and I have already been prepared for my soul mate. Pray God unites me and my soul mate together real soon. Never been on a date or ever had a girlfriend and been Praying and hoping for this for at least 18 years...Prov 13:12 Hope deferred maketh the heart sick, but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life...Please pray God blesses me so I can bless others in every way, every day of my life. Pray I can help people who are targeted by every kind of evil 100% of the time. Pray God blesses me to be able to expose evil 100% of the time and evil will not be able to hide once exposed. Pray a hedge of protection around mind body and soul. Pray God overflows me with His Power, Holy Spirit and Presence in my life. Pray the Holy Spirit is so strong in my life that satan and his servants will flee with terror because God’s presence is so strong in my life. Pray my body would be a strong vessel for the Holy Spirit. Pray God causes satan and those used by satan great confusion when they come against me with their evil plans and Pray God sends His angels to fight alongside me when is happens. Pray God cuffs me in His Hand when evil comes against me. Pray God raises me light years above satan and those used by satan; pray that I glorify God. Pray God heals my body completely. Pray all the people that have seen my prayer in past will be reminded to pray for me again. In Jesus’s Name, Amen. Thanks for your prayers.”

We cherish them, and we are so grateful to You for the blessing of their love in our family. Amen.”

Holy Mother, we offer these prayers from your faithful servants, Bob and Sharon. We thank you for your intercession for Sharon’s mom, and we ask for your continuing prayers for her loving family. Please pray with us for their needs. Please press them to your Son’s Most Sacred Heart: “We know that many of you have been praying for Thelma Koch, mother to Sharon, David and Jon, and I have been asked by many to provide a brief update. First though I have to add that Thelma is a true prayer warrior. She usually attended our First Friday Vigils for many years until she could not physically endure the heat but she never stopped attending every vigil ‘in her heart’. Thelma was recovering as doctors expected and actually begin to eat and drink. In the early morning hours of Tuesday, July 5th, she suffered two strokes to the brain. One was massive enough to put her into an irreversible, unresponsive state. Her kidneys were also beginning to show early signs of shutting down. After consultation with her neurologist, neurosurgeon, and the ICU nursing professionals, they all indicated she would not pull through this latest episode. Before the stroke, we had prayed very much and consulted with many priests and a bishop about placing her on a feeding tube as we wanted so much to follow the Church’s teaching about respect for life even until the end. When it became apparent that a feeding tube would actually hasten her death by ‘drowning’ her in too much fluid, we decided again, after consulting with many close priests, to move her to a hospice facility. As Catholics, we believe that we are guided by the principles of providing food and nourishment since these are not considered extreme measures. In Thelma’s case, providing food through a feeding tube would have actually hastened her death because of the buildup of fluid in her lungs, etc. We hold Thelma up as an example of a true prayer warrior for even on Saturday, July 2nd while she was still recovering from surgery and pretty much ‘out of it’ Sharon and I heard her rapidly praying the rosary, never to skip a beat. For those that knew Thelma, knew that she considered a fervent prayer life as the most important part of her life and her late husband, Francis. Please help pave her way to Heaven with all your prayer intentions. Your brother and sister in Christ.”

Blessed Mother, we entrust Marcella and her intentions to your. Please bring her your Son’s comfort and pray with us for her intentions and needs: “I am pleading for everyone to please pray for my granddaughter’s safety. She has gotten herself mixed up with someone who seems to her mother and I to be a very dangerous person. Please pray that her feelings for this man go away. He has already borrowed over 300.00 dollars from her and won’t pay it back. He has stole from her, and has promised to get it all back for her. She really cares for this person and thinks she can change him into being a better person. She has such a big heart and trust everyone. I am so afraid he is going to do something to her. We are pretty sure he is into drugs big time. And using the money to get the pills. Please pray for Kayla before it’s too late. I am a grandmother pleading for help. Kayla is just too trustworthy for her own good. She sees the good in everybody.”

Sweet Mother, we place Joy and her needs in your hands, Most Compassionate Mother, please pray with us for her son. Please comfort her in this most distressful time: “Lord, have mercy on my son. Save him my Lord. I beg You to dismiss the case against him. Please enlighten the Department of Justice, the judge and the complainants. Lord, I put all my trust in You. Thank You. Amen.”

Mother, we entrust Mary Sue and her prayerful needs and intentions to your Most Immaculate Heart: “Most Blessed Virgin Mary, I humbly ask thee to intercede on my behalf with your Precious Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. I am applying for a management position at work. This position would give me more responsibility, higher visibility and a much needed increase in income. I ask the Lord for Favor with HR and my director Ryan and any others in the decision making process. May the talents and attributes so graciously given me by God, shine brightly. May He smoothed the way and if it be for my best and highest good, allow me to be promoted quickly. Give me the confidence and anoint my words when I interview. Remember O Most Gracious Virgin Mary, never was it known that anyone who sought your help was left unaided. O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for me, who has recourse to thee. Amen.”

Mother Mary, we offer this prayer request from Missy. Please pray with us for her intentions: “Would you please pray for my aunt who has breast cancer, Rhoda Jen, Lisa, my friend Mia who is brokenhearted, my friend Adam, my friend Mira who is suffering from inner demons and depression, my aunt who was a child of her own, my grandmother^rsquo;s friend for an upcoming surgery, for my dad who is under a lot of stress, for the world and nature people, and also for God to grant favor on my very own miracle request (God knows what I am searching for). I’m in a great relationship with a man named Aaron. He’s an amazing guy, and I could see myself having a lifetime with him. I believe because it seems so real to me. It’s all I ever truly want. I repent of all my sins and will do anything to retrieve this wish/this miracle: eventually falling in love (it takes time), marriage (in the future), kids, and just being each other’s best friends, students, teachers and lovers to the end (eventually mates and parents to our children); to accept each other’s pet peeves and just find them endearing; to change for the better and become good people because of each other; to be patient with each other, genuinely care and compassionate for each other, be the best for each other, respect each other, grow to be good people with the help of each other, never take advantage of each other, take each other for granted (never), forgive each other and resolve (our) problems, comfort each other, laugh with each other, be open to each other, honesty, trustworthy, to have our potential love to grow and nurture, our interest in each other to prosper, faithful to each other; to have an open-hearted and opened-minded relationship, to accept/understand and to have a bond that is emotional, mental, and physical; to always be mature (in our friendship and relationship and appreciative of each other. I ache for him to be my soul mate, to be the one God has given to me. Each time I doubt, it seems God is telling me to have faith. I just want us to always…be there for each other and if we fight we will always maintain our love and compassion. I believe in this and have faith. I promise to serve with God forever if this is granted; read the bible; be involved with the church and our kids; be more outgoing and understand and accept my fellow man. Forgive me for all my sins. I don’t deserve this much happiness. Too many people are suffering. Please, please always pray for them. No one should be forgotten or alone….Please pray for us that we will get stronger in our feelings for each other. I want to have true love and I chose him, my Aaron…..I believe in this and have faith. Thank you so much and God bless. P.S. I repent all my sins and I ask for forgiveness. I abide by Him always, and I truly love Him. I’m eternally grateful. Please pray He will grant favor….Please let everyone receive his or her miracle, big or small. God is about miracles and everything is possible.”

I have really been looking, but nothing is coming up. I really want to get out of this rut. Also really needs some good friends. With all the moving around and my husband being in and out of work I am very alone. I really need a good friend and to build relationships so I belong somewhere with others. I don’t have close relationships with my own extended family so I am asking for you to pray that God will bless me with close relationships. I had a friend that I was close with in the past and with all this loneliness, I reached out her to be close,but she just became abusive towards me. She is of a faith that she thinks she can predict things that God is saying. She is so full of hate these days she told me God wants me to be alone. She is really playing on my pain of moving around so much, not having jobs, and us not having a community or family in our lives because of these hardships. Please pray God would bless me to have some good, loving relationships, decent jobs so we can have a family and make good close relationships and for us to to belong with a good community of loving people. It is so painful being alone and I really want for us to be able to live in MI. so we can settle down and to be freed of this loneliness once and for all. Thank you.”

Mother Mary, we thank you for your ongoing intercession and prayers for Robert and his family. Please continue to keep them in your prayers. Please press them and their needs to your Son’s Most Merciful Heart: “Times for my family have been very difficult, with I not being able to work, and more recently my wife lost her job as well: Can you please pray for me and my family during this very difficult time in my family’s life. My job caused my eye problems to return, which is very severe double vision. I went thru 3 eye muscle surgeries which in the end did not really help. I was forced out of my job because I could not return. I was able to apply for Social Security and was approved; but unfortunately, this is not enough to pay for the mounting bills I have. So on the advice of my attorney he said that I just apply for workman’s compensation because your job re-aggravated an old problem which was stable for a very long time. At this point the attorneys cannot make a decision because they are calling it pre-existing and cannot approve me for workman’s comp. So the judge as to now get involved and do this and it could take months, for his decision. I pray every day for a miracle; this has been going on since January of 2009, when I first went in for my first eye surgery. Please keep me and my family in your prayers, and I know there is power in prayer, if more than one person prays for you, so please pass this along to others who are willing to pray for my situation. All I want is to be able to provide for my family, and not lose everything because I cannot pay my bills. I love my family dearly, and I believe with God all things are truly possible. May God Bless each and every one of you.”

Please help him to know that God’s time is not always our time...and through God, all things are possible: “...there is a level of inquiry that we are all called by baptism; but I desire to take that calling to a new level; with hope and desire, I would like to serve...in love of God;....a short poem that I wrote many years past will sum up my sincerity:

I am a needle through a black cloth
See the blood-red thread
It is the blood of Christ
Through me
With me (trailing me)
To make a priestly garment for God’s people.

This poetry signified for me, through the years, a mystery...an impossibility...even the black cloth has proven to represent the difficulties and struggle of prayer; through it all...I add that I love God. My prayer 'need' is to resolve a strategy, opportunity, challenge and decision for a vocation...as I watch the calendar, I am getting older; hence the need to pray for a vocation. I am at peace with this decision...just need to know from Our Lady some specific information!”

Sweet Mother, we thank you for your ongoing prayers for Robert and his family, and we entrust them to your merciful intercession. Please entreat your Son, our Lord, to bless Robert and his family and sustain them in their needs: “Dear Blessed Mother, times for my family have been very difficult, I am unable to work, and recently my wife lost her job. Can you please pray for me and my family during this very difficult time? My job caused my eye problems to return, with severe double vision. Three eye surgeries have not helped, and I was forced out of my job because I could not return to work. I applied for Social Security and was approved, but unfortunately this is not enough to pay the mounting bills we have. On the advice of an attorney, I applied for workman’s compensation because my job re-aggravated an old problem, which was stable for a very long time. At this point, the attorneys cannot make a decision because they are calling it pre-existing and cannot approve me for workman’s comp; so a judge has gotten involved. A final decision could take months. I pray every day for a miracle; this has been ongoing since January 2009. Please keep me and my family in your prayers. I know there is power in prayer when two or more pray together. I love my family dearly, and all I want is to be able to provide for them and not lose everything because I cannot pay my bills. I believe with God all things are truly possible. May God bless each and every one of you. Thank you for praying for me during this very difficult time.”

Blessed Mother, we lift these petitions from John: “Please pray that the marriage of John and Amanda is protected, healed, and restored.

She wanted to get back together two weeks ago, but has severed contact again. Pray that she desires to be my Godly wife. Please pray that communication is restored, that the Lord prompts her heart to call me. Please pray that the Lord delays no longer. Please pray that she comes back soon; I am overwhelmed with everything, and I need my helpmeet. And finally, please pray that the evil one stops tempting and afflicting us both. I need encouragement here, a lot.”

Please pray that God softens and convicts his heart and that we are able to love each other the way God’s word calls us to love. The bitterness and anger I see and hear shows that he does not want me anymore in his life. My husband is befriending people who are not walking with the Lord and is receiving ungodly counsel. Please pray that God guards him against that and that He put someone in his path and guides him as not to leave me his wife. This 27th April we complete 2 years of our marriage, but since 7 months we have not seen each other, and whenever I try to speak to him, he is always in anger for no fault of mine. God, You know the truth. Make my husband understand to take his responsibilities as husband takes for his wife. to love me ,be honest with me. to take care of me and not to just remove me out of his life because of the people who are misguiding him. The world, his parents have separated us. Lord You know the truth. I believe in You that You do help Your followers. Lord, why am I going through this pain? Please give me the happiness which You have planned for me and my husband during our marriage that we both should be blessed and lead a happy married life. I want to have a kid. Thank You. Please continue to pray for us. When speaking with my husband I hear the struggle of his heart in his voice. Please pray that the Holy Spirit speaks to him and softens his heart. Please pray for strength for me. I am very lonely and miss my husband a great deal. Please pray for peace, joy and the faithfulness to love my husband unconditionally. Pray that he comes to take me home soon so that we could live separately without anybody interference in our married life. Prayers for strength and the words to say and to fill us both with each other’s love. Thank You for your prayers. I will continue to pray for you all as well. I love my husband from the deepest of my heart. I need my husband back. Please pray for us and may God change his adamant mind and make him understand that I care for him.

I don't know what do I have to ask Him, because I have always believed He knows what I need.

Mother Mary, we thank you for your continued prayers for Esther and her boys. Please continue to pray with us for their needs: “It’s me again. I have an audit tomorrow. I have only been in this position since December. All 49 files were a mess when I started. I have been trying my hardest to repair them and make them orderly along with keeping up with my day to day duties as a property manager. My boss is under some personal stress of her own. She can be negative at times but I am patient and persevering as I am thankful to have a job. Please pray that she will not take her frustrations out on me. I am praying for her because I feel sorry for her. I am just trying to at least make it through my children’s school year before having to move again. Truth is, I feel God moving me in another direction on the count of how difficult it is having to commute my kids 30 miles to school every morning only because the schools near downtown Los Angeles are infested with gangs and a failing school system. I often pray and wish that God would bless me to work closer to their school but I just don't want to seem picky and unthankful. It’s difficult having to take them and pick them up every day but I just don't believe in quitting or giving up. I can't honestly say that I've tried to find something else because I am so tired of all the changes and moves we've had to make in the last year. I want to keep my kids stable. Please pray for my situation. Thank you. Please let me know if I can pray for you as well. More importantly could you please lift up a single mother I met today who is homeless. I am trying to help her get an apartment in the building that I manage since it is a tax credit property for low income. My heart goes out to her more than myself. Her name is Marlena and she is overwhelmed. More than me in my opinion but neither of us are as overwhelmed as the people in Japan. They are the ones I am sincerely praying for as well as other areas in the world. I almost feel guilty asking someone to pray for my situation when I look at what others are going through. Thank you for listening. I love you in the Lord. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to be a blessing to you.”

Loving Mother, we lift K. in prayer: “Please pray for a miracle for my family. Could you please ask for intercession for our mortgage company to refinance our loan or modify it. I am so tired and in despair. My family needs a financial miracle and fast. I know this will happen in God’s time, and I am ashamed to say that my despair is giving in to me. Please pray that Mary will intercede for my family and relieve us quickly of our financial situation. I am almost unable to go on today and am ashamed of myself for feeling this way!”

This has been a very emotional time for our family. There is another hearing set for March 10, 2011. I am not sure if this will be the last one, but I pray that the Judge will rule in our favor.

My husband is an alcoholic, drinking 15 years already. My faith is a blessing, and I try to save my family. Our kids suffer a lot; they don't know their father’s love. Our daughter tried to take her life away, she took drugs and pills, she was 17 years old, and she was depressed and lost hope. Doctors told me that she won't make It. I cried to our Lord and begged for His Mercy. Our daughter was dying, her liver failed and other organs were poisoned. I said to Our Lord -You can do anything, Your Mercy is neverending .I put my daughter in God’s Hands. God healed her body and in 10 days we took her home, no liver transfer needed. That was almost 3 years ago. Our daughter is a great student but she lost her faith, she did not go to God to thank Him. I know she is hurt by her dad. Our 15 year old son already tried drugs and alcohol; I even had to call police on him, when I found drugs in his room. Our family is still suffering. My husband drinks because we had abortion with our third child. My husband taught that we won't be able to raise 3 kids; he listened to God’s enemy and didn't give me choice. I begged for that life but my husband said he would leave us unless I do it. I listen and regret that decision for 15 years. My husband started to drink and never stopped. I know God forgave me and my faith is so strong. I am thankful for all I have, my husband and children. I pray for other families who struggle, who are hurt. Today I am asking for a prayer: that Mary and Jesus would come and heal what’s broken, bring forgiveness and love. I thank you for that site that I just found after asking Mary for help today. I am asking for a blessings for that site and all the work being done. May God’s Mercy come and bless all the people, who give their time, energy and love to others. May this project bring souls to our Father, God Almighty! Thank you and please pray for Leszek, Sylwia and Paul. May God’s Goodness bless you in all you do…Sincerely, Elizabeth.”

She would eye this man, follow him, intersect him, watch him, and affix affectionate smiles toward him. So, he thought that she had a crush on him and gave her a letter. She then panicked. In fact, when he went to talk to her head manager, she went hysterical, claiming that he entered the store where she worked, in order to harm her, even though he was NOT dressed for chasing down any woman and even though he was unarmed and even though he had a letter in hand, addressed to her boss, detailing what she was doing for months at a time. She never never never never accused him of touching her, following her in a car, calling her on the phone, sitting parked in front of her home, cornering her, vandalizing her property, or anything like that. Even though she leveled no such accusations against him, she accused him of harrassing her, yet she was the one eyeing him, watching him, following him, intersecting him, and smiling at him repeatedly. He literally faces a three year prison term. Pray that this woman finally tell the truth and that she admits that she was spending occasion after occasion doing the eyeing, watching, following, intersecting, and affectionate smiling.

This Tuesday, Aug 3, David will undergo surgery 10:30am at St. David’s RRMC to reconnect the small intestine to the large intestine. If all goes well he should only be in the hospital for 5-7 days. David has felt the power of all your prayers during his original surgery and treatments. Please pray for David for a speedy and successful recovery.

Unfortunately, the at-home travel business is not working out, but I am a strong candidate for a position as a property manager, which is what I really enjoy doing because it allows me to be there for the boys after school and deal with homework and provide dinner in a timely fashion as opposed to the hustle and bustle of getting them to school by 7 so that I can get to work by 8 and picking them up at 6 because I don't get off till 5. It’s a good position that pays pretty decent and offers a free apartment so that I am not constantly stressed about the rent. I cannot complain.

If I respond to the initial treatments, I will receive these IV injections every other week for the next year. My bishop has released me from my original Summer parish assignment in Wilmington, and instead has given me the 'assignment' to pray for the Church and diocese while undergoing treatments. I will likely be living at the Sacred Heart parish rectory in Dunn, NC for much of the Summer, at the kind invitation of Fr. Parkerson, to be close to my friends and family. I ask you to please pray for me as I begin these treatments, and that my health will permit me to return to the seminary in the Fall. Please be assured of my prayers for you all as well!” Mother Mary, please comfort and sustain this beautiful son who loves and serves your Son so well. Please intercede for his needs. Heavenly Father, we pray for the gift of Philip’s complete healing. Infuse him with Your Holy Spirit. Amen.

Then continue to pray for wisdom and knowledge in addressing the oil already present in the ocean. I feel very strongly that we need to be on our knees as a nation and as a world, pleading for a solution to this terrible threat that is contaminating the home of many animals and the livelihood of many people. If you are not able to include it in your program please join me in praying for God’s mercy in this desperate situation.

He told me that his doctor has given him enough pills to commit suicide whenever he feels that he is ‘ready.’ I talked to him and tried to dissuade him from such a horrid step. I pray that he will reflect on my words and the Holy Spirit will step in and help him. Please include him in your prayers that his mind is changed. I cannot imagine how difficult a time this is for him but as we know, this is the wrong way out-any time, any way. Jack talked to him too. I was just thinking that if Johnny was completely comfortable with what he is contemplating, he would not have spoken to us for certainly, he knows what we would say. Always, there is hope. Our Lord asks us to trust Him and trust Him we must. Thank you.”

She had biopsies taken last week that came back benign but her gynocologist sent her to an ob-gyn oncologist in Temple to be sure and the biopsies he did came back positive. She goes in on Monday for blood work and then on Tuesday for x-rays and more tests. She will then start radiation and chemo. She will do radiation everyday for 6 weeks and chemo once a week. They can't do a hysterectomy right now because the tumor is too close to her bladder. Hopefully the radiation will shrink the tumor so they can operate. He said the cancer is stage 2. We will know more after the tests on Monday and Tuesday. We have shed many tears, but it is now time to go forward and fight. With your prayers and God’s help I think we can win.”

Mother Mary, we lift up this prayer from someone who loves you so very much: “Please pray for my Uncle and his family. He’s in the VA hospital in Houston.

My Uncle is in his late 60s and has had a great life—but this news is never easy. And while he’s staying positive, my Uncle is also making sure everything is in order, so his family will not be burdened. He met a man last week that is a survivor from the same type of cancer—so that’s encouraging. He’s my Dad’s brother and the last member of his family that’s alive—so if you will pray for my Dad too—that would be great! Thank you for your prayers—I can not describe how comforting it is to have a group of friends that will pray with you and for you!”

Please hear this prayer from Eric: “Please pray for David F. He is having serious vasospasms on both sides of his brain. This may be a result from trying to reduce his blood pressure. The nurses are also giving him an antibiotic for pneumonia. Pray Pray Pray. Vasospasm refers to a condition in which blood vessels spasm, leading to vasoconstriction. This can lead to tissue ischemia and death (necrosis). Cerebral vasospasm may arise in the context of subarachnoid hemorrhage. Symptomatic vasospasm or delayed cerebral ischemia is a major contributor to post-operative stroke and death especially after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Vasospasm typically appears 4 to 10 days after subarachnoid hemorrhage. One of the nurses here assured me that the kind of pneumonia David has is very common for people who are on ventilators for so long, and is easily treated with antibiotics. There’s a good chance that the vasospasms started just this morning when they tried to start weaning David off the ‘pressers’, the meds that drive his blood pressure up to force blood into those arteries on the brain, inhibiting vasospasm. David needs a little more time, but I believe he will continue to improve. Please continue to pray.”

I am praying very hard and saving as much as I can, so that early next January, I will be totally self-sufficient and have a good well-paying job as, well as continue my education, in the evening so that I can have a better life. I do not smoke, drink, or use drugs. I have some very demonic, and evil women from Hurricane Katrina and Ike Storm that are envious of me. I just moved from one shelter because it was unbearable-a health threat, and people spreading lies that I am rich. The men harassing me, and I had to get tough with them to save myself. I ask, in the name of Jesus, that I will get a financial windfall. I have applied for a job ringing bells, I have several years experience, and no one has emailed me yet. There is so much jealousy because I am praying and trying to do what is right, that these hurricane victims at the shelter our slandering me, prowling around my bed area at night when they are supposed to be sleep. They stare at me the whole time I'm there in the evening to the point it is very uncomfortable indeed. I ask for a better job or this Christmas job and a hedge of protection around me-going and coming. Also, many are practicing voodoo/witchcraft. I had surgery almost two weeks ago-a tooth pulled out, and it is hurting all of a sudden. My toes and foot are burning in the morning. I ask, in the precious name of Jesus, to be freed from this evil bondage and for my spiritual, emotional, physical, and financial protection. I am ready to go on with my life. Pray that my relocation early January will work out the way God wants it to. Thank you so much and God bless you greatly!!”

Please hear her prayer and intercede with Jesus and our Heavenly Father on her behalf: “I am a mother of two sons. One is 5, the other 13 (almost 14). I was a single parent for several years after I had my oldest son. I married when he was in the 2nd grade and shortly after had my young son. It is with regret that I write that my oldest son has been quite a difficult child from day one, but especially since I got married. His biological father sees him often, but when he was young he would often talk bad about me to him and expose him to bad video games and movies. When I got married, it was evident to all that were there that we has withdrawn and unhappy. This mentality has continued for years now. It is now become a very big burden on my entire family. We caught him doing drugs and stealing from a store, etc. (this has all happened within the last 2+ months.) My husband and I are suffering extensively. Our home is filled with hostility and tension. My son is counseling now, and we have dedicated a lot of time to him and put him in several activities to help him focus on positive things. However, I feel that this child is filled with anger and hatred. He does love God and is a fairly good student. I know that things can always get worse, (which I am soo afraid of), but I am suffering so much I don't know what to do. Since I had this child and am continuously trying to do the best I can, but I don't know what to do. I am in desperate need of prayers for everyone in my family especially my son and husband. My house is not a home right now. All I would love for Christmas from now till the day I die is for my family to love one another and for this anger and tension to leave all of us. I pray for this too. And I pray that my son becomes friends with a good boy that will be a good influence on him. I feel that only a miracle could make this happen. Thank you for any prayers you can give. Thank you. ”

The police have rung me asking me to come for an interview. I don't know what to do...cause I have repented and re-dedicated my life to God since than. I was backslidden in heart and though it was so long ago...I thought it was under the blood. I'm so ashamed of my past, and God has taken me out of a lot of situations before...yet, I can't see a way out of this one. I haven't told anyone...not even my husband...cause I'm afraid it may kill his ministry...and kill him spiritually. I repented at God’s altar before all this came to light...now it’s come back to hunt me. I'm so sorry and I've told God...but why do I seem like I'm being forsaken...I don't know what to do, and what I would do when my husband finds out. I'd rather tell him...in a positive note (as though its come out, the charges have been dropped). Please pray for me...either the charges will be dropped or withdrawn. I'm sorry, and I just want to make a new start in Christ...why does my past keep creeping up. Especially at such a time as this. All the souls that have been brought to Christ through my husband’s and my lives...what would happen to them as they look to us as an example? I should have thought about it then...but I didn't. My eyes were fixed on the NOW and not eternity. I need a miracle! Least I die.”

Blessed Mother, please steady your loving gaze on P.M., who offers you these prayers: “My best friend is going to begin treatment for a liver cancer that her doctors are calling 'incurable'. I am very afraid for her. I am selfishly afraid for myself because I just don't know what I am going to do without her. My dad died a couple years ago when I was 49. Now mom is remarried and moving away from my childhood home. She claims to be moving to be near to my sister. That hurts me. I have SO many other issues and fears. Please make things better for me. Oh, I know that prayer is not magic. I do not know what to say. My heart is so heavy. Nothing...NOTHING is happy on my life. Sadness and failure and fear and sickness and loss and rejection follow me everywhere. Please Mother Mary, be my mother because my earthly mother doesn't seem to want to be my mother.”

Mother most holy, most kind, please hear these prayers from Tina, who loves her daughter so very much: “Please pray for my daughter, LeeAnn. Please pray that she will learn that the way she is going in life will lead to more trouble than she has already seen. She has just not put God first in her life. Even though I know she knows He is there, she insists on listening to others and their wrong ways. She had lost all that she worked for in her life within 2 years. Please pray that God softens her heart. She is so cold to the truth about God and life. She seems to think that she can count on her family for everything, and not help herself. She has a license in cosmetology, she doesn’t see that getting a job will get her on the path to learning some respect in helping herself. She has lost all her good credit, been arrested, lost her car and still doesn’t see that it is the friends that she is keeping that she is following. Please pray that God softens her heart. I pray this every day. She thinks we don’t want to help her. We do. But there is no-one stopping her from help herself, other than herself. She was not raised to be to uncaring and selfish. I know it is the company she keeps, that she seems to follow down the path. Not one is going to church, praying or shows that God is in their hearts. She needs a break away from these people and to come back to God, her family and the truth about what is right and wrong. Please pay also that I do not have to hear the “f” from her anymore. Even though I tell her I don’t want to. Please pray and pray hard to her. She is not hearing God, and I know that He is calling her loud and Clear. I pray that when she is sleeping that she hear angles speaking to her about the right things to do in life. I want her to be happy. I want her meet a nice man, that will treat her with respect and let them have a beautiful family, that we can enjoy with her. I want her to feel the love that we have for her and the respect that we have for her. I want her to live a loving and caring life. I know it is hard to be a mom and watch a daughter have such a destructive life, when you know she was not brought up this way. She has so many people that care and want to help her, but she has to show that she wants to change her lifestyle. Please pray!!”

Mother Mary, we ask your loving intercession and offer these prayers from D. M.: “I ask that you pray for me in my time of need. I have going through a tough time in my life and have been dealing with the side effects of childhood sexual abuse. Even though I am 51 ears old, I have been carrying the emotional baggage of this experience for over 40 years. It is only in this past year that I have been able to confront the memories and deal with the pain and consequences that it has brought to my life. I feel as if I have been living in a fog and with significant depression. I have been seeking help to assist me in dealing with my emotional pain and to help me heal. I ask that you keep me in your prayers and that God may have mercy on me and continue you to guide me on my path to recovery. I ask that the Virgin Mary intercede on my behalf and to ask Jesus to become a growing force in my life and to give me strength to go on. I ask that God keep me safe and out of harms way and to allow me to become the man that he wants me to be and that I know I can be...to be faithful to my loving wife and a good father to my children.” Blessed Mother, please wrap D. M. in your protective mantle and bring him comfort. Please help him to know the peace that comes from your Son’s Merciful Love.

We lift up this urgent and sincere prayer from Erin: “My friend and one-time college roommate is battling brain cancer and has been receiving chemo and radiation for nearly one year. Stacey is a mother to two young children and a wife to Joey, they live in Atlanta. She just found out that she is 18 weeks pregnant. She became pregnant during her chemo and radiation and therefore, the baby has been exposed to these chemicals from day one. She has opted to take a 10-week break from her treatment to allow the baby to reach 28 weeks gestation, when they will deliver the baby via C-section. She has been informed by her baby-related doctors that the chemo is very strong and particularly attacks DNA growth in cells and therefore the baby. They are quite certain that there will be neurological damage to the baby, although the ultrasounds have thus far showed relatively normal growth. Additionally, her cancer-related doctors have told her that they do not want her to stop her treatment of cancer (even for 10 wks!) because her cancer is so aggressive. They said that if they allowed her to carry the baby to 40 weeks gestation, she would probably not live to deliver the baby. So, Stacey is choosing to give her child a chance and risk her own life. I still cannot believe the situation that this family has been put in, even as I type this. As a member of Stacey’s network of support and prayers, I am asking that you specifically say a prayer to Pope John Paul II. He is in the process of being named a saint and needs a second miracle to ‘qualify’ for sainthood. We have decided to storm heaven with prayers to our former Pope, specifically asking him to stop the growth of Stacey’s cancer while she stops her treatment. Many of you may also be calling to mind the story of St. Gianna Molla, whom JPII canonized in the 1994, whose story is very similar to Stacey’s.…I appreciate the time you took to read this and say a prayer for Stacey, her unborn child and her family. Stacey herself asks that we be sure to pray for her husband, Joey who is truly heartbroken.”

You have all become part of my extended spiritual family, and I consider you all as God’s gift to me, in my spiritual journey, especially in carrying out the mission God has planned for me. My CD project has still not got off the ground, and I am encountering so much of attacks. I am Left Handed and I write work etc all with my left hand. For the last two weeks, my left wrist area became swollen and I have shown it to my family physician and another doctor couple who are my friends. Their opinions are divided, and contradictory. However all the medical tests done up to now are perfectly normal...Then as the swelling didn’t go down, after a week, I was asked to do a scan, and that report too is normal. It is puzzling to everyone why this swelling DOES NOT GO DOWN. It worries me too as it is my left hand. One doctor suggested I go to see a surgeon, and the other doctor says it’s not necessary. You can imagine what I feel, as my reports are normal this is another evil attack on me, to disturb my mind, so that I cannot concentrate on my work, music ministry, family, job, teaching and anything else. Please please can you cover me with Mother Mary’s holy Mantle? So that Satan’s power will be burnt and paralyzes by Her Holy and Sinless hands, whenever it tries to attack me. I love Mother Mary so much; I defend her strongly openly against her enemies. Can you please beg Her to look upon me with Her Merciful Heart, and heal me, and not to let any serious harm come upon my Left hand, and that the swelling subsides. Can you all lay your hands over my photo and pray for me. Even though I am thousands and thousands of miles away from you, I have so much faith in your prayers that is why I keep writing to you with my every need. Please forgive me if I am a nuisance but I turn to you for strength and support to sustain me. You cannot imagine the battles I am facing. Thank you for being my earthly guardian angels who carry me on wings of prayer. God Bless you all.”

Holy Mary Mother of God and our Mother, we entrust these prayerful needs from Priyanthi to your generous and powerful intercession: “I come once again humbly before you with so much confidence in the power of you intercession and the kindness of your hearts, to pray for my daughter Mariella for 2 very special needs. The first is Mariella has been chosen for the school Solo singing competition on the 15th of November -next Tuesday. She has a beautiful God-given voice and sounds angelic. She has always used her voice for the glory of God, especially taking a very active role singing for Holy Mass in the school and in the Parish Church. Still I want to entrust her voice to Almighty God through Your prayers, that He blesses ad anoints her voice with heavenly grace, so that every word and note and sound that comes forth from her lips will be Blessed by God and touched by the Sinless hands of Mother Mary. That Mother Mary will place and anoint Mariella with the Holy Blood of Jesus, so that when she sings every heart and soul present in that hall will be touched by the power of God, and that the Holy Spirit will take authority over those adjudicators, and their minds, that they may not resort to bribery and injustice, but be led by the guidance of the Holy Spirit. The second need is on the 21st of November; Mariella is beginning her final and promotion exam at school, which will enable her to go into the Upper School or Collegiate school as we call it. She has a lot of difficulty concentrating, especially because of the tense situation at home with my husband, who doesn’t realize that his behavior sometimes has adverse effects on this little child. She has a good memory; unfortunately she gets distracted and forgets, and makes very careless mistakes, so I beg you to ask the Lord to take authority over her mind and intellect, so that she may comprehend, and remember all that has been taught. That Mother Mary will anoint her Memory power to answer the papers correctly, and to double check it before handing over. Please pray that the gifts of the Holy Spirit will flow through her mind and memory and that God will be glorified through this examination, where will all proclaim the wonders God has done. I am sending her singing photo so that you may place Mariella somewhere neat the Altar or the Blessed Sacrament so that the Lords presence will fill her with divine radiance and light.

I am not sure what more I can do other than ask for prayers from as many fellow Christians as possible. I pray regularly asking the Lord to help our marriage. I love my husband with all my heart and I am doing my best to remain calm, be consistent and constantly remind him I love him, reassure him that things will be better with counseling and hard interpersonal work and through God. We have an 8 yr old daughter who is not dealing well with the turmoil and is blaming her Dad and she is hurting as well. I need strength and courage during this rough time and I need the Lord to help strengthen and renew my marriage and help heal my husband’s heart, soul and mind. I need the Lord to speak to him in his thoughts, dreams and visions and help him to understand, we as a family, can overcome this rough time and be stronger and more interdependent. He needs to know how important it is to honor our vows we took before God and that divorce or separation isn’t the answer. I really need the Lord to be there for us and to help heal our souls and minds. I want to be able to feel God’s presence and comfort during this difficult time. Right now I feel all alone and abandon (even though in my mind I know this is not true). My daughter and I will greatly appreciate all prayers and well wishes we can get. I ask this in the Lord’s name, in the name of His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ and of His Holy Spirit, one and forever. Amen.”

I need to work and pursue going abroad because I have a lot of bills to get paid and my youngest son need to continue his studies. I am feeling very hopeless. Please pray for me that the company who is accepting me will consider the results and give me a chance to recheck my condition since I don't have any symptoms that cause me with the diagnosis.

Ved komu je platny chory apostol, ktory sa boji sam seba? Uzdrav ma aby som mohol oslavovat a ohlasovat tvoje meno aj inym Pane. Dakujem TI za vyslisanie.” (Translation: “Please be unto me, Lord Jesus, forgive me. I trust in Your mercy. Please help me. Heal my sick heart, so it no longer nevladzem. I love You very much, but my love for You is a limited disease. Please, remove all obstacles that separate us. Heal me because I can not help myself. Do not leave me alone and are zmyluj nadomnou, through His flesh and blood, which He poured out for us so requested. Ved whom is valid chory apostle, which the fight itself?

“Lord, You said that it is not good for us to be alone. You made us for each other. But Lord, I find it so hard to find that mate who would be a good spouse. Help me, Lord, to put this yearning for marriage in its proper place. Lead me, Lord, to the one whom You choose for my spouse. While I wait for You to reveal Your Will in this matter, help me to know myself better. Help me to address those areas of my life which are disordered and which would interfere with my having a successful marriage. When my desire to find a spouse becomes all-consuming, help me to relax and practice patience. Help me to invest in wholesome friendships which bring me closer to You and which will assist me in making such an important decision. It is so natural, Lord, to seek love. Teach me to seek You first and to learn to give love before I try to receive it. Help me to remember that whatever journey this life leads me on, You are always present, always offering companionship, and always filling my deepest need. I offer You, Lord, my loneliness and my longing for marriage. I wait for You to lead me to Your perfect Will for me in this and all things. In Jesus’s Name, I pray. Amen.”

Holy Mary Mother of God, we offer you this prayer intention from Angel. Please pray with us for her and her needs: “Please pray for me. I want to save my marriage. Lord, please please help. You know everything about my husband and me. Please guide me, please help me. Lord. I spoke to him 2 days ago and till now he has no intentions at all to stay with me in another house but instead he says he wants to send the divorce papers to me. I am very worried that even now he and his family don’t understand the tension I am going through; especially with the loss of my father. There was nothing more for me than my father, but my husband does not understand the tension, the stress, the trauma that me and my mother are in…but wants me to leave my mother who is alone and I should come and stay with his family with all the harm they do to me…it does not matter to him. He does not feel sorry for the loss of my father at all but I pray to God to forgive his sin. It is now going to be 1 year since this unhealthy relation which is growing day by day with no hope of happiness and solution to it which is killing me each and every single day. But LORD, I am hoping for You to do a miracle to change his thinking of evil and to bring truth of God to save my marriage. My husband always shouts and abuses my parents in spite of my parents doing all the things the way he wants…but how long and now that my father is no more. God, YOU HAVE TO HELP ME PLEASE...I am making him understand not to break the marriage, as divorce is a sin. But he is not at all ready to move with his wife (ME )and stay in a house of peace with no inferences but instead wants to harm me and my mother .his parents and sister don’t want to see me and my mother happy. They all are doing some black magic to break my entire family. My dad is gone and now they want to do to me and my mother. God please help me from evil. Please I AM LOST WITHOUT MY FATHER. WHO WILL SAFEGUARD ME NOW? God only knows what did he and his parents along with his sister do that my dad went through the tragic sudden accident and passed away. Why is Lord not helping us; Lord please help me. I pray to God to make them understand not to do wrong and spoil his and my life. God please show him the way to peace where everybody is happy with God’s grace. Waiting for your urgent reply.”

“Holy Mother please take my petition. I pray that our marriage is saved. Please stop this divorce now! I don’t know what is wrong with my husband, but he needs so much help from our Lord. Please ask your Son to remove the anger/bitterness/resentment/ depression from my husband. Especially the uncalled anger and mistrust he now has for me. Please restore his faith, spirit to who he used to be: a man full of joy, always willing to help others. His boss is the main reason he is so full of anger and frustration. This man has stripped him of his soul and his dignity, all because this man is jealous of my husband. Restore his love for me as it was before he filed for divorce. Heal his body; he now has so many problems, especially stress. Save our marriage, home, and family. My Mother, please don’t despise my petition, please hear my plea and please give it to your Son. Thank you, my mother.”

Loving Mother, we lift these prayers for P. and we ask for your intercession and assistance in these needs: “I come before you humbly seeking your prayerful assistance for a very urgent need. I have come before you on many occasions and I have experienced the glory and victory of God in the helpless situations I was in and for which I had requested your prayers. Please do help me out once more. On the 11th of August myself, my husband and daughter together with my mum who is kidney patient have planned this pilgrimage to the Shrine of Our Lady of Madhu, which is the most powerful Shrine in our country dedicated to the Blessed Mother...This Shrine was closed for nearly 30 years because of the war and terrorism in Sri Lanka as the church was situated in the War zone, and the Miraculous statue had to be taken away by the Bishop of that diocese, for safety. Now after the war after 30 years the Shrine is open and many miracles of healing and deliverance is granted to the people through Mother Mary. As I have mentioned before my family have suffered a lot because of evil bondages, and generation curses, which have brought conflict, hatred, disunity in our family. My mum who is 78 years old has a deep longing to go to this Shrine, but she and I are under a of attacks from the enemy because it is the two of us who are battling in prayer for the deliverance of our family. Our pilgrimage will be just before the feast of the Assumption and we know that Mother Mary will bless and heal us. Initially the first obstacle was my husband who was assigned by his office to go on tour on the very date we planned to go...I stormed heaven and his office found a replacement. Now another obstacle has come up. My mum had to go today for her monthly check up to the kidney clinic, and she was stunned as there is some problem with the test reports, and the doctors have ordered further tests and asked her to report to the hospital giving the date before we leave on this trip...This is very upsetting as she says the doctors may say “get admitted" if the test results are not good...If that happens we can’t go on the pilgrimage and the evil one will rejoice as my husband’s job doesn’t permit him leave...Mum had told the doctor she’s feeling fine...but they are confused...I have a lot of faith in the blessed water and so I started giving her blessed water to drink together with Lourdes water, and I asked Mother Mary to release the power of God and take authority over mum’s sickness, and with the Blessed water to cleanse mum from whatever is not ok inside, so that God’s power be manifest and confound the Doctors so that tomorrow when she goes for the blood and urine tests, even the equipment used and the those doing the tests be under the authority of Mother Mary, and that all the reports will be normal, for the glory of God…and that Mother Mary’ Holy and sinless hand will crush destroy and remove this obstacle of ill- health that is trying to bock our pilgrimage...I have so much trust in your power of Intercession...my uncle Walter who was dying and doctors gave up on him is today very much alive and healed thanks to your prayers...please carry us (me, my husband Wilhelm ,and my daughter Mariella, and my two brothers Malik and Dilip, who give mum so much of heartache, pain and hurt) in your hearts, let the power of your prayers flow into this situation, I know your hand are powerful because you are all people of prayer, please place us on the table of the Lord, (specially my mum tonight) ask Mother Mary to cover us with Her mantle and St. Joseph to deliver us, give us good health and take us on this journey to the Shrine of Our Lady on the 11th. Please ask God to send His angels to destroy and remove the blocks and traps of the evil one who has much to lose by our going on this pilgrimage,, Please help us with your prayers to obtain this deliverance, because when we receive healing, and deliverance you will be blessed and rewarded and so will all the members of your families be also blessed. Tomorrow the 6th of August the feast of the Transfiguration is also the 20th death anniversary of my Dad, John. Please offer a little prayer for the repose of his soul...I pray that my next mail to you will be one which I will glorify the Lord. I remain humbly your sister in Jesus, Mary, and Joseph.”

Precious Mother, we offer these needs and intentions for R. who loves your Son and needs your prayerful intercession. Please pray with us for her needs: “Please pray for my marriage. My husband and I have been married for nearly 25 years, but it has never been an easy relationship, not even very close. My husband is a wonderful man, but is extreme in his emotions. Often going from happy, funny, and creative to angry, sullen and depressed. I and my children adore him, but these extremes have worn us down because he can be too unpredictable. A counselor told me that his behaviours are emotionally abusive. I think my 17 year old son has suffered and it breaks my heart. I am lonely and sometimes feel hopeless that things will ever change. He has been very hurtful to me emotionally, and I struggle not to be controlled by fear. This all seems very complicated. Please pray that my husband gets the help or healing he needs, pray that I would be strong and receive comfort from Jesus and Mary and the Church, pray that my children would be healed and come into stronger faith in God, and ultimately come into the Catholic church. I converted to Catholicism 3 years ago, my son has stopped going to church and I’m not sure what he believes in anymore, my daughter is spiritually sensitive and is attracted to my faith and so I pray that her simple faith is protected (she asks Mary to pray for her), and my husband has been going to an Anglican church in recent months, but is struggling with what he believes about God (i.e. that God really loves him).”

We pray for his complete healing, Please sustain this beautiful and loving family who serve your Son, Jesus, with such loving commitment, and please bring them the comfort and peace that comes from His Most Merciful Heart: “Chris…has been in the hospital since Sunday 7/10. Originally, he went into the hospital for fatigue, extreme headache, fever, upset stomach, etc. The doctors are unsure of what is wrong; they have performed every test imaginable and cannot pinpoint the cause. His temperature, Sun-Wed, was very elevated (101.5-105.3) and fear of seizure and thus brain damage was a major concern. Thankfully, his fever broke Wed morning and has been normal (98 range) ever since; however, he hasn’t eaten since entering the hospital, is in incredible pain, and very uncomfortable. Originally, the doctors thought it could be a bacterial infection but then ruled that out and discontinued antibiotics. (The antibiotics were making him throw up since he hasn’t been eating and has nothing in his stomach.) The infectious disease specialist who saw him thought it could have something to do with a tick bite, but they weren’t calling it lyme disease, but something else. However, that was only their best guess and no test results have come back on that yet. Now, as of 10pm on Thursday, he has fluid pooling in his lungs (he’s on, and has been on, oxygen) and may possibly be experiencing congestive heart failure. This is disheartening and scary news. The unknown is scariest and the doctors continue to be baffled at his condition. Chris is 41 years old. A priest heard his confession and gave him absolution. He’s received an anointing as well. Your prayers are appreciated - they are needed most.” Please Most Loving Mother, intercede for Chris and his family. Amen.

Amen”

Blessed Mother, we thank you for your ongoing and most compassionate intercession for Esther and her boys. We offer these petitions to you. Please pray with us for them and their needs: “Please pray for me as I am trying to and have to move. Don’t worry it’s a good thing this time. As you know this time last year was one of the toughest times for me. I was literally ‘living on a prayer’. I am trying to move back to the very same area that I was trying to avoid being evicted from because my son’s are connected to that area. It’s where all their friends and good schools are. My assignment at my current position in downtown Los Angeles has ended (I am so not a city girl). I am trying to move back to the San Fernando Valley. I have already enrolled the boys in a good school there, and they are ready for football with their friends whom they have been with since I separated from their father in 2008. I am just trying to keep them stable. The hardest part for me so far is finding a place! I would really like a place with a washer and dryer. So tired of going to the Laundromat. Please pray for my strength that I can find a place and get settled soon. Like this week. I will be getting unemployment to sustain me until I can find a position in the valley. Thank you. Love you in Christ”

So many act like they’re Christian, but they don’t live it. It’s brought me down, but I know that God’s going to help me and make it happen. I’ve been waiting patiently for some years. Please pray that Jesus would send me a girl that is like me and someone who I would like. She would be beautiful on the inside with good Christian values. She would also be beautiful to me on the outside, someone who wants to dress nice and who has long hair. I want a girl who is like this and who wants to stay like this for herself and me.

Holy Mother Mary, we thank you for your ongoing intercession for Sandra and her husband.

Dear Lord Jesus, we lift prayers and entrust our friend Barbara to Your Most Loving and Compassionate Heart. She has lost her beloved friend. Please heal her hurting heart, we humbly pray. Amen.

"Blessed Mother, I entrust my brother to your intercession and prayers. You know he is having surgery next week. You know he feels disenfranchised from your Son. Please protect my brother from harm and anxiety. Please pray for his complete and swift healing. Most of all, please pray with me for his spiritual healing. You always bring us to your Son. Please wrap my little brother up in your arms and put him on your Son, Jesus’s lap. Help him to have a conversation with Him so that he can rediscover the power of God’s Love for him. I pray he can trust again. I pray he is healed from the cancer and from the pain in his heart. Amen.”

O Most Compassionate and Merciful Mother, we entrust Michelle and her beloved husband, Stuart, to your intercession. Please pray with us for them. This is a difficult time.

Sustain them with the love that comes from your Son, Jesus, through the gifts of those who surround and support them. We pray for Stuart’s comfort of mind, body, and spirit.

Place your angels at their sides, Sweet Mother, and bring them the Grace of your Son, Jesus. Amen.

We remember O Most Gracious and Loving Mother that no one seeking thy help and protection is left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, we offer you this petition from Pat: “Please pray for my son, that he find a job soon. He is in desperate need of money to pay his bills.”

Most Compassionate and Loving Mary, we entrust Barbara and her hopes and needs to your motherly attention and prayers. Please press her and her intentions to your Son’s Most Sacred Heart. Please bring her the healing peace that comes from Him: “I am in a very depressing situation (point) in my life. I am in a job were a coworker is very mean, including physically threatening. My superiors dismiss it. I don't have enough funds to quit and start out on my own. I had gone back to school and now have more student loan debt, but can't find a job in this new field. So I have to keep this job while I can so I can keep paying off my loans. Also my landlord is a very negative person, and I feel I'm walking on eggshells all the time waiting for him to start complaining about something else. One summer he even threatened to kill my cats-he hates them. Please pray that I can better my situation (I want to start my own business) and move into my own place where I keep my horses and cats in peace. My mother died this year, and the rest of my family are quite a ways away; so it’s just me, the cats and my horses. I'll keep you all in my prayers. God Bless.”

Heavenly Father, we offer you this prayer from your devoted daughter, Elaine. Mother Mary, we thank you for your ongoing intercessions for her and her loved ones.

For Sam, Christopher, Sally, Jean, Eileen, who are seeking you, break down any barriers, release strongholds, put with the right people and may your will be done in their lives. I pray for Baby Charlie who is three days old and in intensive care, for the skills of the doctors and the nurses, to diagnose the problem, and for Clare and Malcolm and the rest of the family as they watch and wait. For those suffering from mental illness, John, David, Louise, Tony, Lee, help them to be transformed by their renewing of their mind into the likeness of Christ. Healing for those who are seriously ill according to your will, Eileen, Fred, Janet, John, David, Louise and comfort for Melvyn during his sorrow.”

Our Blessed Lady, Patron of Guadalupe and our Mother, we humbly offer you these prayer requests from Cindy, who has come to know you and love you so dearly, for she has learned, just as Juan Diego learned, that you are our compassionate mother. Please join us in praying for Cindy, her family and their intentions, and her new business: “To think of how I despised Our Blessed Mother for SO many years...and she has now blessed me SO much! Please pray for my husband Rick and our 20th wedding anniversary on July 7. I am STILL praying for a miracle in his heart for us to celebrate truly our 20th anniversary together. Our Blessed Mother led me back to him in July 2009, after a 16-year civil divorce. It was receiving an Our Lady of Guadalupe print at the "perfect and amazing timing" from my donation to Relevant Radio that started my journey back to him. It was on July 16th—the Feast of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, that the Holy Spirit convicted me (through a program on Relevant Radio) to re-commit to my marriage even though my husband is an atheist and MANY unknowns. To say it has been a heavy cross is putting it mildly. When we reconnected in July 2009, I truly anticipated us being fully reconciled by December 2009...but that is when the evil one took over. Because of the MANY amazing signal graces I receive from Our Blessed Mother, and the things and people the Holy Spirit continues to orchestrate, I've continued in our relationship. Because of SO many details of our journey, I have been praying that our full reconciliation happens in order for us to celebrate truly our 20th wedding anniversary. Two weeks ago, Rick advised he was "done" with our attempt to reconcile. I found the timing comforting, as he advised me on May 31st, which is the Feast of the Visitation. I've been asking Our Blessed Mother to heal him in only the way She can! It will TRULY take a MIRACLE for us to fully reconcile by our 20th anniversary, but that’s what I'm praying for! Right now it looks impossible, but I know how God LOVES that word! Back on Dec 8, 2010, I had a very holy priest bless our marriage certificate from the parish we were married in, as well as a door knocker we received as a wedding gift from my husband’s now deceased sister. I am praying THAT doorknocker is hung on OUR door...we are currently separated. The ONLY way for all this to happen, is for a MIRACLE in my husband’s heart—his conversion, or healing in his heart from whatever keeps him so angry, unforgiving and selfish. He was wounded by his mother growing up, and he also ignorantly joined the Masonic Lodge prior to our marriage. BOTH play into his wounds and strongholds and ever since Our Blessed Mother brought be back to him after our 16 year civil divorce, I have been PRAYING and SACRIFICING like crazy :) It’s in God’s hands, but I am asking for all the prayer I can get and flood heaven! There’s much more to this story, but the Lord knows the rest and I just need prayer for my dear Richard. He has such a stronghold on him and...needs our Jesus! For years I prayed the Lord would show His glory to the fullest extent in my marriage—but that prayer started when I was away from the Church as an Evangelical Protestant, and thought I could re-marry...without an annulment. My return to the Church woke me up to the fact that I was already married, so everything the Lord has orchestrated to this point has been BEYOND AMAZING, and I am trusting Him one day at a time. Please also pray the following: 1) My brother John does NOT have a civil union with his same-sex partner, Spencer...or a "celebration" 2) Repentance and conversions for my siblings, their spouses and my nieces and nephews, as well as my husband’s family: Ann Marie, David, Jessica, Andrew, Paul, Carol, Randy, Melissa, Sara, Ryan, John, Michael, Amy, Tricia, Jerry, Leah and Luke. Also for Spencer, Albert, Hildegard, Roy, Keith, Steven, Kevin, Chip, Teya. For them all to return too or come into the Church. 3) Healing for Tricia and Jerry’s marriage and family. God bless you all, and thank you TONS for the prayers and ministry—to God be the glory! In Christ and through the Immaculate Heart of Mary.”

Sweet Mother Mary, we lift our prayers with John for his sister, Lucinda. Please pray with us for her. She is a loving mother with a little boy. Please intercede for her and her vision. We ask for healing in your Son’s Most Precious Name: “I would like to ask for prayers for my 35-year-old younger sister, who is scheduled for cataract surgery on 6/14. She has a history of having retina problems, glaucoma, and diabetes. She is married with one son. She is legally blind, but this surgery may, with God’s grace and Mary’s intercession, help her to see out of her remaining eye. (The other eye cannot be saved.) She has not seen her 5-year-old son’s face in 3 1/2 years. She hopes and prays that she can see enough to see his face once again and be able to read to him. Her name is Lucinda Tovar Ivicic. Thank you so much. God Bless!”

"Blessed Mother, please join me in praying for my brother, Mark, who was recently diagnosed with prostate cancer. He is scheduled for surgery on June 21. He has a wonderful, board-certified doctor with a fellowship in Urologic Oncology. He specializes in all aspects of urologic oncology with an emphasis on prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment; so we expect my brother’s outcome to be good. Even so, I beg your intercession. Mark is a good man with a passionate love for life...and he cares for so many: his wife and family, his students, his friends. He is just 50 years old and recently celebrated the arrival of his first grandson. He has so much to live for. We pray for Dr. Jarrad and his staff. We pray for their steady hands in surgery, their alert eyes in pathology, and their excellent and caring treatment for my brother. We pray too, for Mark’s wife, Kathy, who lost her mother in the past year. Today is her mom’s birthday…a difficult day especially because Mark had his first appointment with the oncologist today. Blessed Mother, please enclose them and their family in your loving arms. Pray with us for Mark’s swift and complete recovery, Help us to appreciate the Grace of our Heavenly Father in all of this. May it draw us closer to Him and each other, may it help us to praise Him better, and may we share His love more perfectly through this experience. Amen."

Mother Mary, we lift this prayer from your faithful daughter, Maryann: “I need someone to intercede for me, someone caring to pray for this need as I have other needs I am taking care of. I don't know what needs to be done, so please ask the Holy Spirit to comfort me, speak to me and help me fix this problem. I'm very young and have developed little purple veins on my legs, not sure if they are spider veins. Ask the Holy Spirit to forbid them from getting bigger, darker and forbid me from having spider veins. Ask the Holy Spirit to help me get rid of them or if it is best for Jesus to get rid of them. Please pray exactly in agreement.”

Please pray that we will be honest with each other and communicate. Please pray that God will bring desire and passion in our marriage. Please pray that my husband will give up clubs, women, drinking, and women and turn his heart back to God. It is my desire that we will attend and worship together.

He’s an amazing guy, and I could see myself having a lifetime with him. Happy together. And I believe in it because it seems so real to me. It’s all I ever truly wanted. I repent of all my sins and will do anything to retrieve this wish/this miracle: eventually falling in love, marriage, kids, and just being each other’s best friends and lovers to the end; to be patient with each other; respect each other; grow to be good people with the help of each other; forgive each other and resolve (our) problems; comfort each other; laugh with each other; be open to each other, with honesty, trust; to have our love to grow and nurture, our interest in each other to prosper and nurture, faithful to each other; to have an openhearted and opened-minded relationship; to accept/understand each other; and to have a bond and connection that is emotional, mental, and physical. I believe in this and have faith. I promise to serve with God forever if this is granted, read the Bible, be more outgoing and understand, and accept my fellow man.”

Please press them and their needs to your Son’s Most Sacred Heart: “Please pray for my mom and mother-in-law. Both are having tests/procedures done today. My mom has an enlarged liver with unusual readings so her tests are mostly diagnostic. However, she does have some jaundice that concerns the dr. My mother-in-law has almost no circulation in the tops of her feet so they are going into the aorta below the waist and looking for blockage that they can stent. If it’s too blocked, they will pull out and schedule some sort of bypass instead. She has already had open heart surgery so some of the veins that they could have used for this procedure have already been harvested.”

Heavenly Father, we offer off a prayer of thanksgiving for the gift of this wonderful seminarian, whose praise for You, Your Son, and the Holy Spirit so inspires us. Thank you for Br. Mark and for his prayers: “Thy Kingdom Come! On a quick visit from Dublin to help one of our priests, I was able to participate in a special 40 Hour Adoration event. The time before the Eucharist has greatly deepened my relationship with Christ through the time spent together. He so loves each of us and has a special plan for our lives. By talking to him and spending time in his presence, we figure out what it is and how to live it out faithfully. This past Sunday was World Day of Prayer for Vocations—especially to the priesthood and consecrated life within the Church. I thank God immensely for his gift to me of the priestly vocation, and I pray that others may also share in it. The world desperately needs priests. Please keep this intention in your prayers, and let me know if there is anyone in particular that I can pray for or support in some way. May God bless you. I would like to share the following texts from the Holy Father’s message on this occasion: 'It is no less challenging to follow Christ today. It means learning to keep our gaze fixed on Jesus, growing close to him, listening to his word and encountering him in the sacraments; it means learning to conform our will to his....Particularly in these times, when the voice of the Lord seems to be drowned out by "other voices" and his invitation to follow him by the gift of one’s own life may seem too difficult, every Christian community, every member of the Church, needs consciously to feel responsibility for promoting vocations.' Yours in Christ, Br. Mark Thelen, LC P.S.”

May Holy Spirit talk to him and change his mind by showing him true love and divine love I have for him and rescue him from the bondage which hold him in that relationship which is out of God will. May spirit of anger, adultery, drunkerdness, and hatreth towards me destroyed by God. May God rescue him and allow us to get married soon, I love him so much. When Hanna was praying for a child, she promised God that she will give the child to God; I promise to God that the family which he will give me with Sad—k, we will serve God with love and commitment. May that woman holding him in the adultry relationship leave him. May Holy Spirit talk to her and let her set him free. Let that woman quit without pain in her heart; I don;t want her to feel pain. On Friday that woman called me and told me if me and my fiance will get back together she will kill us. Please pray for me so that God can fight me.”

I came to Dubai for him as he promised marriage to me. He stopped all contact with me from 3 months. If I call he would only say he hates me and would keep abusing. I want you to lift him in your prayers to Jesus and the Holy Spirit so that he’s changed and renewed as a Christian, all the hatred, anger and all that he holds against me is washed away, and he’s filled with love for me again so that our broken relationship is healed and we are united and blessed in matrimony. He used to be a very God-fearing man, but after we have separated he hardly goes to church; he’s forgotten all his promises. Please pray for his return and that he realises what he’s done, I only rely on prayers to get him back now. Submitting him and our broken relationship to the Lord. Only a miracle can unite us.”

He was recently suspended for touching a girl inappropriately, I took his phone due to showing nude pictures of girls. His father bought him a new phone. This weekend I couldn't take anymore and I took him to his father. I thought I would get support from the father but instead his father allowed him to just choose to move in with him. His only reason for this is so that he won't have to pay child support for all three kids. I am heartbroken to have to part with my first born child. He his out of control. Please pray for God’s will and outcome for this situation. Please pray for my strength. My son’s name is Michael....One of the reasons I think this is so hard is that his father was arrested at work for criminal sexual harassment, which was what started our divorce. My son maintains that he is innocent and would apologize to the girl even though statements were taken from 8 kids who saw him do it. I worry that living with his father won't be a better situation. At the same time I am not gonna let a child run over me especially in front of two younger brothers. Please pray for my strength. I am so sick over this.”

Please pray that the Almighty God may grant me the grace to trust in him fully without limiting His mighty power. Thanks in advance for the mighty miracle that will be wrought in my life through your fervent prayers. I desire that God’s mighty power be made manifested each time I receive the Body and Blood of JESUS Christ in Holy Communion.

It seemed to clear up. Then today in other activities it came back really strong. Went to the Med Center because I could hardly walk.

Comfort and the physical remedy would be great too!”

“Heavenly Father, we offer prayers with grateful hearts for the miracles witnessed this week. So many people prayed for Piper, that she would be found...and after 15 days of searching with heavy hearts, she was...though only after sustaining an attack by some animal, likely a coyote. But after two days of gentle care from Dr. Neumeister, and IVs, medications, and a nice warm bath, today Piper was sent back to her rescue home, where she will continue to thrive. We lift thanks not only for where she is today, but for the many people all over the country who prayed for her rescue, who hiked the hills and valleys and woods around Galena, IL, searching, and for those who printed and posted fliers, made phone calls, donated money, and did so many other countless things to bring about this rescue. We give thanks, too, for the selfless people who work diligently and with open hearts to rescue dogs from mills, shelters, and other places where they land when they are unwanted. Witnessing the love put forth for one lost dog is a reminder of the parable Jesus taught us about the Good Shepherd. Not one of Your Loved Ones shall be forgotten or cast away. Thank you, Father, for teaching us again and again that Your love is unconditional and unwavering. The events of the past two weeks help us to learn better how we, too, should love...not only this dog, but ALL of Your Creation. Thank You for this lesson. May it not be lost on us...and may we always strive to love in ways that bring You glory. Amen.”

I have accumulated a huge amount of debt which I have never done before. I have no way to meet monthly payments or provide basic needs.

Mother Mary, we press Andrea, her husband, and her children to your Most Immaculate Heart. Please pray for them and bring them your Son’s Healing Grace: “I am writing to you to ask for your prayers for my sweet little Dominic. Some of you know that he was diagnosed with simple partial epileptic seizures in mid October of last year. In less than 2 weeks he will be admitted to the hospital at Dell Children’s to undergo a video EEG study to see if they can find out where in the brain his seizures are originating from. He will be taken off all of his current anti-seizure medicine so that they can watch what happens to his body and keep track of just how many seizures he is having. It is very hard for me to watch my little child suffer a loss of control of a part of his body and then cry and ask why he has to have "look aways" (this is the term Kevin came up with that sounded less scary to Dominic). If you could please pray for me to be strong for him as well as entertaining. We will be stuck in the hospital room 24/7 and this will be hard when Dell children’s has so many fun things to see and fun places to play. I apologize if this email is a little incoherent or random in structure, but I believe in the power of prayer and God’s miraculous ability to heal and so I want to storm Heaven with as many prayers as I can. I am not sure if I included everyone from my CRHP teams 25 and 33, but feel free to pass this along if you noticed I missed someone. I pray that my letter finds each of you and your families healthy and happy and I know that He will be carrying us thru this trial in his loving and gentle way. I can't thank you enough for your prayers in advance! Your Sister in Christ, Andrea.”

God brought us together and I want to honor that gift by saying and doing all I can to bring Barb all the happiness she deserves so that when Barb thinks of me is with me or is having a bad day she will feel the warmth of my love and our special connection and it will put a smile on her face and heart. Barb will feel safe with me and open her heart mind and soul up to us knowing I will protect and cherish her heart and love and I will always be here for her and never let her down, and we share our secrets and dreams, and enjoy every minute we have together as a gift that only leaves us wanting more of each other and know that nothing and no one can come between us and our special love. Barb is a gift in my life as I am a gift in Barb’s life that I am so grateful for and look forward to every day we get to spend together.

Loving Mother, we lift up these prayer requests and concerns from Carrie. Please pray with us for her intentions and her needs: “Over the past ten years I have been challenged by many trials. I ask in prayer for financial help immediately to provide for my two children and myself. My rent is overdue and the amount owed is over $5000. My landlord has been very understanding and I do pray for him. I am working retail but recently got a pay cut at Dillards. I am a degreed engineer but have not been able to get another engineering job since 2001 after being laid off. My other bills are adding up as well. I have sold jewelry, borrowed money that I need to pay back, etc...I pray and I pray for help. Many times I get just enough money to get by, and I know that this is by the hand of God. Yet, I can't do the band-aiding much longer; it is weighing heavy on me. I just got high blood pressure medicine. There is so much pressure. My son is graduating high school this year. Money is needed for all that is in involved with graduation. My daughter is in graduate school. They need vehicles to drive, and they have done without a lot of things. They are both a blessing to me. I thank God for them. Please help me pray for restoration, a home that is ours, peace, good health, joy, financial security, and protection from all evils coming against my family now and all generations to come. Please pray that my husband of 31 years will find his way back to Jesus and be filled with the Holy Spirit. Please pray that Eric will come back to his family. He has discovered the emptiness of sex addiction, lying, and putting his trust in ungodly friends. Eric had prostate cancer surgery in January 2010 and is looking frail. He has lost a great deal of weight. Eric has not had a job since Spring 2008. We have been estranged since 2001. We have lived in different homes since he moved to an apartment in 2007 right as we were being evicted from our home of 17 years. The children and I have been in a rental home since that time. He promised to pay the landlord $1000 a month which last for eight months. I am not as angry or bitter as I was. I do now have much peace. I have stayed close to my faith in God. I have released the pain associated with the hurt. I am healing emotionally. I do pray for emotional well-being for Emily, Jonathan, and me. I pray for Eric’s emotional health as well. I pray to Mother Mary often. I know that all will be okay. I just need prayer partners because, when two or more are gathered in His name, miracles happen as Jesus promised. Amen.”

Sweet Mother, please continue praying with us for Esther and her boys: “Could I please ask you to pray for my sons Michael, Gabriel, and Christopher? They are with their father this weekend.

I know that prayer changes things and that when 2 or more are touching and agreeing that He is in the midst. I know that my boys are precious gifts from God that He has loaned them to me and that they are His children as well. Please stand with me in agreement for God to place and keep a hedge of protection around them and that they will return to me safely. Please also pray for their father Michael, Sr. Also I have been offered another job. It starts April 5th. Please pray that somehow I will be able to borrow the money until I get my first pay check for April’s rent. I know it’s just the testing of my faith. Thank you and love you much in Christ Jesus.”

Mother Mary, we lift these prayers from Charlene. Please continue praying for her friend, Ella, who was seriously injured: “Ella has had several more tubes removed. The central line from her neck and an arterial line out of her foot. Ella has also showed improved X-rays and has been doing good functioning on reduced oxygen intake...so all these things are progress in the right direction and she looks a lot more peaceful without all these wires! On the serious side...Ella is still NOT in the clear or out of critical condition yet. Please keep praying hard! Her fever has gone down a little from 101 to 100, but this is still very scary because Ella’s body cannot handle a fever or infection right now. They have sent cultures to the labs to see if an infection is growing anywhere in her body, but it’s unknown when the results will be back...and this could greatly hinder her recovery. Ella also keeps having spikes in her blood pressure (which have similar effects to spikes in her ICP). We still do now know what level of neurological functioning Ella will have and it could still be weeks before we have this information. While Ella has opened her eyes some, they currently look/go in opposite directions and she still is not responding to voices or able to visually focus on any objects. So while we have made tremendous progress, she still has a lot of hurdles to overcome before it is safe to have visitors or before she can be moved from ICU. So please continue to lift Ella up in prayer! God is hearing our prayers!”

Mother, we offer this prayer to you from someone who loves you so very much: “I would like to submit a prayer request. My name is Clarissa. I'm 26 and a single parent with three kids.

Loving Mother we place Colleen and her family in your loving arms and we ask you to pray with us for her and their needs. We pray especially for Colleen in her discernment. Please protect her and bring her your Son’s healing peace: “Please pray for my family. I recently went to a counselor because of the difficulty I am having with my marriage and after describing my husband’s behavior toward me, the counselor said that it was an emotionally abusive relationship, and though it’s hard to admit, I would have to say that it’s true. I understand it takes two to build a relationship and I know I'm not perfect, but my husband chooses to stay isolated and distant, he doesn't want to talk about things or go to a counselor. If I suggest talking or counseling he gets defensive and hostile. We don't communicate or engage on any intimate level. I'm worried about what this is doing to the children and have considered separation, something I have never considered before. We have a lot of friends, and I have a lot of support, but as a new Catholic, I want to ‘push in’ to the resources there are for me that I've never had before, i.e., Mary, the Saints, the Sacraments, etc. There’s so much I need to learn, and I'm desperately seeking to do the right thing. I am sure my broken heart needs more healing; I need more wisdom and direction and protection, patience and discernment. Thanks for praying for me.”

Mother Mary, we offer these prayers from Esther. Please continue to pray with us for her and her boys. Please press them to your Son’s Sacred Heart and bring them His protection and healing peace: “Yesterday I received a call from the first job I asked you to pray about where I interviewed on December 1st and then the 2nd interview was cancelled and rescheduled for the 7th of December but I told you about the vibe I was picking up from the person who I interviewed with (this position has been empty going on 4 months) She called yesterday to see if I could come in yesterday or today. I said today because it was short notice and I wouldn't be able to make arrangements for the kids to get picked up from school within 2 hours. She said she would call me back to schedule a time for tomorrow but still has not called. (I did a follow up call this morning to the regional manager who I had the first interview with to express interest.) Still haven't heard anything. I just spoke with a landlord/tenant attorney who can help me with the eviction I am facing. He explained that I he can stretch this out for about 4-6 months! I have to give him a retainer equal to one months rent. I have eviction court on Tuesday January 19th. He is also a Christian who ended up ministering to me about putting this in God’s hands and told me that worrying is choosing fear instead of faith. He said that it is not him who is going to help me keep a roof over my head but it’s the Lord and that he is just doing what God instructs him to do on my behalf. I don't know why I waited so long to call him. I kept thinking I can't afford an attorney. I just kept praying for a place to live or another property management job. God doesn't do things the way we envision it all the time. Because he is sovereign He does things His way. My job is to trust. I know you have been conveying this same message to me over the past few months. With the holidays and being sick on top of everything I just wanted to sleep and became depressed. My faith is restored. I don't know what He is going to do with this eviction. I don't know where or when He will put me back to work but He is not gonna see me homeless. Right now I am so humbled because I know I have the necessities that so many children and adults don't have in Haiti which is already a poor country. I am so filled. This is my praise report now. I am celebrating that I have hope and faith and that I don't have to wait to see the end results. Thank you for your prayers. I love you in Christ.”

Mother Most Immaculate, please pray with us for Maria...that her leg pain is relieved and that walking becomes easier for her.

If I do something, unintentional, that hurts him or angers him, he won't forgive me, no matter how many times I apologize.  I feel I am in a loveless marriage when a spouse refuses to forgive and chooses to stay angry. I never know when something I say or do will trigger him into a hate mode. We've been married 28 years.  I know that with God’s help, God can and will help him, me and our marriage.”

Sweet Mother, please pray with us for Terry and his family: “My family is broken, and I need prayers to bring my family back together. My wife left with our two-year-old son a little over five months ago and has filed for divorce. I had no idea what was going on and she really hasn't told me the reason. We went through something similar roughly two years ago and then reconciled after three months but this time she will not speak to me unless it is through attorneys nor will she speak to any of mine or her friends. Her name is Joyce and our son’s name is Joshua. I don't want a broken family and am praying that God will change her heart and mind towards reconciliation and restoration of our marriage. I've asked for her to talk to me and asked that we go to counseling all to no avail. Everyday that passes the closer we are to having the divorce finalized. Tuesday I got even a bigger blow, even though the judge already granted the Texas standard visitation while we are in the middle of this. My attorney emailed me and apparently the Social Study person wrote a letter to both attorneys saying he was concerned for Joshua’s safety when he is with me (he has never ever been hurt in anyway when he has been with me or been in any type of danger, but has been hurt multiple times when with her). Her attorney went and filed a motion to have all my visitation stopped without my attorney knowing. The judge signed off and now I do not get to see my son at all. We have a hearing on the 15th to figure it all out. Please pray for us.”

Loving Mother, please hear this prayer from Marie: “Blessed Mother, please pray for my relationship with Chalvador that the Lord would bless us with tie that cannot be broken, as lovers, as soul mates, and husband and wife, in love forever.

She has dropped out of school and refuses to talk to her family and friends. All of his family and friends thinks it is the greatest thing because he supposedly quit the drugs and gets out of bed. Now she is living with him. We just found out that she had been sexually assaulted over the years and she is in a destructive mode.

After 7 months of separation, I finally wrote her a letter telling her that I know of her adultery and fornication she has been engaging with the two men—and maybe others. She has not admitted to her adultery but has emailed others stating that I am out of my mind. She presently wants a divorce. Please pray that God would clearly reveal to her sins, and that she would acknowledge and sincerely confess her sins to God and that she will truly fully repent immediately and come back to our covenant marriage, to her husband that loves her dearly and has fully forgiven her.”

“Dear God, I have no clue what is happening with the emotions of Tim P. I know he might have loved another woman before me, and I am deeply sorry that I can never be her. But with your tender mercy and your powerful hands—I need you to wrap your power around his weakened angry soul and let it flow through his body till it cleans up everything that hurts him so he can be reborn into a new attitude towards life and love. I'm not anything he would ask for, but I love him, and I promise to be by his side forever if that is what he wishes. Please save him, heal him, and show him your love so that maybe I can as well someday. Amen. Your Daughter, Sharee”
