Hi,

I don’t know how I have gotten as far in school as I am with horrible research skills. Every time I am assigned a research paper I just barely scrape by, not sure how I do as well as I do in my grades. But I really need to, and want to, learn how to do good research. I wanted to ask you to pray that I figure out how to research and use the tools and resources available to compose and write quality papers and essays, and that I find the help or ask for the guidance from people who can help me do good research. Please offer any prayers for me finding help in learning how to research, and perhaps good books on the subject of how to research and different methods of researching specific subjects.

Also, please pray for my professor, who has been very helpful so far in pointing out different resources and people who may be helpful in putting together my paper.

Thank you for any and all prayers.

May God bless you all. Amen!
 
St. John Vianney, pray for Invisiblewitness and his professor.
 
Saint Michael, the archangel, defend us in battle, be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil, may God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do you, O’ Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God thrust into Hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who prowl about the world for the ruin of souls.

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.

†

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.

Amen.

Prayers going up.

As a former English teacher, may I suggest writing an outline? I still do this when writing an article or an essay.

Praying for your intentions.
 
O most glorious Prince, Michael the Archangel, be mindful of us, here and everywhere: pray always unto the Son of God for us, Alleluia, Alleluia.

V. In the sight of Angels I will sing to Thee, O God.
R. I will worship facing Thy holy temple and confess Thy name.

O God, who in a marvelous order hast established the ministries of angels and of men, mercifully grant that as Thy holy Angels ever do Thee service in heaven, so at all times they may succor us here upon earth. Through our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
 
St. Augustine said, “Pray as though everything depended on God. Work as though everything depended on you.”

My prayer joins yours that all goes well.

The “work” part is to get yourself into the library and find out what classes they offer in how to do research. They may be credit-bearing or not, they may last one or two sessions or a whole term, but librarians offer these classes and not nearly enough students take advantage of them.
 
Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou amongst 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 that the Lord may guide you in learning how to research. Also praying for your professor.
