My friend has asked me to pray for him and his family. His wife came to him and told him she wants a divorce. He is taken by surprise and is very hurt and worried for his two young girls who will be heartbroken. He and I met in college and both of us attended a Campus Ministries Episcopal Chapel. I have since returned to the Catholic Church, having been convicted of the fullness of truth found therein. He has since become a Buddhist and is very involved with his faith practice. He has asked me, as a practicing Christian, to pray so I’m passing this request on that many will pray. May God be with “Ash” and his family in this time of pain and confusion. May God heal this relationship that they may perhaps be able to remain together and keep their family intact. And, may He bring them closer to Him through this trying time and reveal His presence to them in an undeniable way.
 
Lord, please heal Ash’s relationship with his wife and grant them deep peace. Draw them both closer to you and help them to persevere in a state of grace. Help them to love and understand each other, and help them to communicate well. Thank you, Lord, for hearing my prayer.
 
Thank you for your prayers everyone. I’m hoping that he will feel our prayers and know that God is with him through this. Praying for all of you and your intentions as well.
 
Send forth your Holy Spirit O Lord.

Our Father Who art in heaven
Hallowed be thy name
Thy kingdom come Thy will be done
On earth as it is in heaven
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who trespass against us
And lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil.
Amen

Praying for them.
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help or sought your intercession, was left unaided.

Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word incarnate, despise not my petitions, but, in your mercy, hear and answer me.
Amen.
 
Hail Mary, full of grace
The Lord is with thee
Blessed art thou among women
and blessed
is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus
Holy Mary, mother of God
Pray for us sinners
Now and at the hour of our death

Amen.
