We need prayer here. A large airline closed their base in our city causing many good older men to have to relocate 5 and 12 hours away leaving mostly empty-nest wives behind but many still with families, forcing most of us to support 2 households in this bad economy…people who have been settled for 20+ years! Due to the size of the company, few of us even know each other so have no mutual support system! We must sell our home, but it is not finished and is an unusual property which will most likely be hard to sell. To foresee living like this for 7 more years is overwhelming. My husband is too young to retire and we cannot lose our health insurance due to health conditions. We now don’t have enough time to do large things that need to be done here to move ahead. Stress is getting high due to separation, finances, coping with issues alone for all of us, not just my husband and I. We personally feel stranded & trapped in our situation. Money is vying for center stage in our lives and it makes us sick. We need intervention. Please pray for us.
 
***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. ***
 
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.
 
Praying from today’s Liturgy of the Hours:

Teach the faithful in adversity to share in your passion,
and let the light of your salvation shine out through them.
– Take pity on your people, Lord.
 
Remember O Most Gracious Virgin Mary
that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection,
implored thy help or sought thine intercession was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence we fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, our Mother.
To thee do we come, before thee we stand, sinful and sorrowful.
O Mother of the Word Incarnate despise not our petitions but in thy mercy
hear and answer us. Amen.
 
PATER NOSTER,
qui es in caelis,
sanctificetur nomen tuum.
Adveniat regnum tuum.
Fiat voluntas tua, sicut in caelo et in terra.
Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie,
et dimitte nobis debita nostra
sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris.
Et ne nos inducas in tentationem,
sed libera nos a malo. Amen.
