Let Us Pray

Together, let us pray for the needs of our brothers and sisters.
Please remember these intentions in your daily prayers.

  1. Dear Lord, I pray for the President of the United States, Donald J. Trump. Please, Lord, allow him to run the country with honesty, integrity, and fairness. Help Congress surpass their agenda of opposing him for the sake of opposition and help them come together for the good of the country. Lord, please help him bring our country back to greatness. Help him overturn Obama's legacy of bad policy and legislation. Lord, our country needs a miracle. Bring the light of God into this new administration. May the Blessed Mother wrap her mantle around everyone in government, congress, and administration. Bring us peace, joy, and prosperity. In Your Precious and Holy Name. Amen!!!

  2. Dear Lord, Please receive my son, CJ, at the Foot of Your Cross. I place Your Blood that was spilled on the ground on my lips, that it may not go wasted but in stead purify my lips as my prayers float up to the Throne of Our Father. I thank you for the healing he received when he was released from the "stronghold" on his heart. Please continue the healing to full restoration of his hope and trust in You, and bring him to the fullness of Your Love. Please, Lord, he still has desires of joining the military. If it is not within Your Will for him, please remove these desires and replace them with Your Will on his life; that he may fulfill Your purpose for him. Lord, I am afraid. I do not want to see him go off to this futile war of evils. I place this prayer at the Foot of Your Cross, that it may be cleansed and purified before it reaches the Throne of Our Father; that the Father may return them renewed and restored. Please, Lord, bring CJ the desire to become an FBI BAU agent to fruition. Bring him the tools, resources, and perseverance to bring his desires to completion, if it is Your Will, Lord. Replace his desire for the military with his desire to serve in the FBI. Lord, if it is Your Will. I place CJ in Your merciful and loving arms. Bring him peace, joy, and prosperity. Help him to live a life dedicated to fulfillment of his purpose and commitment to his faith. In Your Precious and Holy Name. Blessed Mother, wrap him in your mantle and be with him always throughout his journey. Amen!!!

  10. I need help! I have TMJ, migraines and shoulder problems. And they are bad enough but now my teeth, gums and jaw bones are falling apart. I never had any teeth problems but in the last year I am developing cavities, my gums are receding and my bones are disappearing. I take very good care of my teeth and the only thing that the dentist can think of is maybe the TMJ along with the stomach acids are causing these problems. My TMJ is getting worse with every dentist appointment. I feel like I am giving myself a heart attack or a stroke from the stress. I can't afford the gum surgery. I keep crying. Thanks for the prayers.

  12. April 15, 2017. Prayer Day for Children. Through the efforts of many, we now have a yearly observance: The International Day for Street Children. We are reminded of the millions of throwaway street children worldwide - children with no schooling, no healthcare; children in prostitution and armed conflict; children called vagrants, discarded and unwanted. All children need acceptance, love, helping hands, encouragement and hope. You and I and all people of the world must join together to make a better tomorrow through positive thought, prayer and blessing of all children. "We worry about what a child will become tomorrow, yet we forget he is someone today." Stacy Tauscher. Fr. Don Bosco also reminds us - "It is not enough to love children. It is necessary that they are aware they are loved."

  15. My nephew was involved in a horrific motorcycle accident March 1st 2017. He suffered a shattered pelvis, multiple hand fractures and a leg fracture that caused overwhelming blood loss before his first surgery to amputate the leg. The 100 units of blood going in could not keep up with the blood loss. He was intubated and later received a tracheostomy. He has undergone 14 surgeries. A pelvis stabilizer bar was surgically attached to his pelvis, pins placed in his hand. Family decided to keep his injuries private for his privacy sake. He was put on ECMO to add oxygen to his blood because the transfusions were not keeping oxygen level up in his blood. Then things took a turn for the worst and his colon started dying, kidneys and liver started failing due to not enough oxygen in his blood...and he was made a DNR (do not resuscitate) because all the intervention meds that would be need in case of heart failure where already being used to the max. Essentially there was nothing more they could do if he had heart failure. Family and friends decided prayer was the last hope for his recovery. Word of his accident was immediately put out to everyone asking for prayers. Within a few hours his health started to improve...there was hope for his recovery. The doctors decided they could go in surgically and remove the dead colon tissue and give him a colostomy bag. In all he's had 14 plus surgeries and more to come. He's on kidney dialysis. Once request for Gods intervention were prayed for he was improving rapidly. Praise God! All glory goes to God! He now has problems with infection and now has pneumonia and is in great need of prayers as he continues to fight for his life. But he has overcome so much through the healing, grace and mercy of our God. Please pray for Jon's healing and strength as well as his 10 year old daughter...for he is a single parent and soul provider for her. Bless you all and Praise God!

  2. I would like to pray that a friend of mine, Susan who was a women who I met at a young adult group will live forever with my science teacher Mr. Vance. She was also teaching at Longs Peak Jr. High school and was very influential for everyone in my class. I would also like to ask forgiveness for saying the 'f' word this morning. I would like her and Mister Vance have the mysteries of the biology and physics of what happens in the cemetery after one dies and undergoes decomposition. I think there is much to learn here which could offer insight into the past life. With all do respect I don't believe it lies in sexual activity in the cemetery.
