Praying Hands The Lord be with you! This is Deacon Keith, and I am asking for your prayer requests - especially during the difficult times each of us is facing.

Why am I asking you?

Before calling the Apostles, Jesus spent the entire night in prayer. (Luke 6:12) In His Sacred humanity, Jesus shows us the pattern for our life.

Because you - like me - see the importance of our Catholic faith, YOU can participate in our mission to spread the Gospel to all nations.

Here is how you can: I am inviting you to be a "first responder" by sending your prayer request to me, thereby joining our worldwide movement of praying for one another.

Let Us Pray

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

  1. Please Pray for Brother Charles lives in Abidjan, Côte D'Ivoire in West Africa, where he has been called to serve the Saints and to go forth into a very dark place to find the lost. I know Brother Charles is not a scammer because I received confirmation from Clint Morgan the General Director of International Ministries for the Free Will Baptist Church, who sent his most trusted Pastor to verify Brother Charles.
    Thank you!

  8. Please with kindness, pray that my beloved will stop hurting me, after a disappointment in a sexual act off intimacy that could have been prevented, with more prayers. I wasn't ready and he knew that but still fully took advantage off all his energies. My intuition and guides are faint, while he doesn't listen to his. I feel dirty, filth and deepest off pain with my heart energy centre and all over. I've gone into complete shock, deepest off hurt, feel used and shattered and heartbroken, as he promised me a ring after many years off courtship. He abused his telepathic energies whole half inside off me, and degraded me, and gave me the cold shoulder to impress his male relative. I thought he was more mature off a gentleman. I'm a very confused, shocked, deeply frightened young lady, off whom has had her heart played with two many times over. We have the best friendship, only to be destroyed by abuse off power. I pray I do recieve my ring after over a decade, I pray, he will stop hurting my heart, and respect my most unconditional love for him.
