My family has been lukewarm in our faith for some time. After battling some mental health issues recently I have been trying to get back on track and have started going to confession and regular mass again. My parents have chosen to accompany me in this return and my father even agreed to go to confession on Wednesday, something he hasent done in years!

Please pray for him and for my entire family and I, that God may soften our hearts to his message and welcome us back into the flock!

I am immensely glad for you and your family! May God guide all of you as you continuously grow in faith and eventually reach spiritual perfection (hopefully). Welcome back!!!
 
That’s wonderful. Buck,
and a great grace that your decision to respond more to your Catholic faith is drawing your parents closer to God.

Loving God I praise and thank You for Your great love and mercy to Buck and his parents.
Please continue to bless them abundantly, and draw them ever deeper into Your love and truth.
 
Teach Us to Love

Lord, we thank You for all the love
that has been given to us, for the love
of family and friends, and above all
for Your love poured out upon us every
moment of our lives in steadfast glory.

Forgive our unworthiness. Forgive the
many times we have disappointed those
who love us, have failed them, wearied
them, saddened them.

Failing them, we have failed You,
and hurting them we have wounded
our Savior, who for love’s sake died
for us. Lord, have mercy on us, and
forgive. You do not fail those who love
You. You do not change nor vary.

Teach us Your constancy in love, Your
humility, selflessness, and generosity.
Look in pity on our small and tarnished
loving. Protect, foster and strengthen it,
that it may be less unworthy to be offered
to You and to Your children.

O Light of the world, teach us how to love. Amen.
 
O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fountain of Mercy for us, I trust in 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 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.

Eternal Father, I offer you the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your Dearly Beloved Son, Our Lord, Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.

For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world.

Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and on the whole world.

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.

Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,

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.

St. Thérèse of Liseux Prayer From “Story of A Soul”
May today there be peace within.
May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be.
May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith.
May you use those gifts that you have received,
and pass on the love that has been given to you.
May you be content knowing you are a child of God.
Let this presence settle into your bones,
and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise, and love.
It is there for each and every one of us.
Amen.

Lord, thank you that you are with me right now.
Your love surpasses all fear.
I give you the anxiety I feel.
I surrender all my worries to you.
Clear my mind;
Calm my heart;
Still my Spirit;
Relax my being, that, I may
always glorify you in everything
I write, speak and do.
Amen.


Jesus, Help Me
Thank You, dear Lord Jesus.
Amen.



Prayers said. All will be well. Do not fear, the Lord is protecting you.
Do not be lonely, your guardian angel is beside you.
Be comforted, Mother will watch over you, and the
Holy Spirit will guide you.
Amen.



Prayer Against Depression
By St Ignatius of Loyola
O Christ Jesus
When all is darkness
And we feel our weakness and helplessness,
Give us the sense of Your Presence,
Your Love and Your Strength.
Help us to have perfect trust
In Your protecting love
And strengthening power,
So that nothing may frighten or worry us,
For, living close to You,
We shall see Your Hand,
Your Purpose, Your Will through all things.
Amen.



Let nothing disturb you,
Let nothing frighten you,
All things are passing away:
God never changes.
Patience,
Obtains all things,
Whoever has God
Lacks nothing:
God alone suffices.
Amen.



My Jesus,
I believe that You are
present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love You above all things, and
I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive
You sacramentally, come at least spiritually
into my heart. I embrace You
as if You were already there and
unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me to be separated
from You.
Amen.

Thank You dear Lord Jesus, always and
everywhere, for everything.
Amen.

Jesus, I trust in You.
Amen.

Glory to God in the highest!! So grateful for His graces over your family. Your father going for confession is a huge step, but don’t get worried, Satan would want you to worry endlessly thus robbing you Christ’s peace. Know that Our Father’s will is that all prodigals come home. Be at peace, Christ will handle it and intercedes for us. I will pray too.
Our Lady, pray for this family. Amen 💜
