Hello,

I am feeling great distress, fear, and anxiety regarding a situation at my former church. I walked away from the fellowship and now I fear that I everybody is talking about me. I feel like I can tell when people are praying for me.

Sometimes I want to go back to this fellowship to try to “make things right”…other times I want to move on.

I am in a state of great tension and uneasiness regarding this. I also am experiencing some anger. I know that the Lord can draw me closer to Himself through this…but at times it is unbearable.

Dan
 
Lord God Almighty, I humbly beg that Your pour upon Dan the graces he needs in his current situation. Bless him with an abundance of peace, love, and calm… Give him the strength to do what needs to be done and the knowledge and wisdom to know what has to be done. I pray that everyone involved will treat each other with compassion, mercy, understanding, and brotherly love. AMEN.
 
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.

Amen.

Lord of peace, merciful God, let Dan remember what is good and from the rest, draw only wisdom without rancour.

Console him, strengthen him and guide him in Thy ways all the days of his life. Let him find peace in Thee.

Through Jesus Christ, Thy Son, our Lord, Who lives and reigns with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, through all the ages of ages. Amen.
 
It takes great courage to “move on.” You have a chance to grow in the faith and maybe help one or two friends make the same change. I believe change is good and helps us grow. If you have the inclination to move this far, perhaps God is calling you to a new place. I would persevere and pray for help. I also recommend talking to a priest about the transition. He may be able to help.

I was in a local parish for 25 years and just moved to a neighboring parish a few months ago. Our family had connections at the first parish but I just could not take the errors that existed. The new parish is much better. I am not one for “church hopping” but there are legitimate cases for “moving on.”
 
It is hard to make changes. I am sure you will miss your former Church I assume it was not Catholic. I am praying for you.

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

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.

Glory Be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning is now ever shall be world without end Amen

May the God of peace grant you peace and free you from all anxiety as we wait in joyful hope for the coming of our Lord, Jesus Christ. May the Holy Spirit grant you wisdom and understanding and guide your journey home to the Church.

Amen.
