Please pray for my wife’s conversion. She was raised as a Catholic, but she doesn’t attend Mass with us and doesn’t like to think about concepts of eternity, Heaven, Hell, etc.

Thank you.

Pray for you.
Do your job.
I entered marriage in the same situation.
 
Our God, through the love and merit of Jesus and Mary, I offer You all my spouse’s good deeds, sacrifices and trials, in prayer for her salvation, fulfillment, happiness and peace.

I offer every frustration and disappointment, all sadness and suffering of her life, together with her satisfactions, and achievements. In Your mercy, please unite her fully with the Mystical Body so that her life is a living prayer pleasing in Your sight.

If in any way, I fail to convey Your love to her, or I do not enrich her life with warm gifts of my nature, please forgive me and heal her.

Guide me to give her the love, joy and goodness that you have united us to share, and lead her to love me freely and honestly.

Please forgive and overcome her doubt. Open her to Your Spirit. Let her experience the fullness Your truth, so that she enters into sacramental faith and dedicated Christian ministry. I ask this in the name of Your beloved Son Jesus.

Praying for you! Get a green scapular,k have it blessed and put it somewhere where she won’t find it but in her general area. Then pray every day, “Immaculate heart of Mary, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death, amen.”
 
Thank you all for your prayers.

In a way, I am thankful for her current state because it has inspired me to try to be the best Catholic I can be. In her life, she has seen a lot of hypocrisy in those who call themselves religious or faithful as well as being raised in a family where the apathetic, go-to-Church-on-Easter-and-Christmas and Friday Fish Fries were the norm. In any case, I hope that seeing that you can live your faith and not be strange or odd, while instead showing her that my faith leads me to being more loving, more patient, in general just a better person than I would otherwise be (sorry about the run-on sentence)…that living this way is both what I want to do (because of my love of God and others) and at least should be afforded a “second look” before writing it off.

Also, I’ve tried more of a bull rush method of trying to convince her actively, which kinda turned her away. I love her, but this issue does cause some disunity in our marriage, but I need to meet her where she is. There is still plenty of sin and mistakes that I need to take care of in myself before trying to impose or coerce her that God is the only true path to joy and happiness.

In any case, I trust in God’s plan. It may not be as fast as I want, but I trust Him and will be patient while not failing to do what I can.

God bless,
Bryan
 
Lord, please convert the heart of bscastro’s wife and grant her contrition and pardon for her sins. Grant her a life-changing personal encounter with you that will transform her heart into a burning furnace of love for you. May she return to the Sacraments and receive their strength and healing. Thank you, Lord, for hearing my prayer.
 
This weekend, I was visiting out of town to visit my parents and for some business. Between meetings, I went to a local adoration chapel. I found a great book called Athiest to Catholic (can’t remember the author). It had stories of non-believers and their logical and reasoned journey to the Catholic Church. It gave me such a feeling of hope for my wife.

As I read these stories, I thought of my wife and wept with hope. I prayed that God’s will be done and left there feeling much hope.

Thank you for all your prayers. I trust in Him.

God bless,
Bryan
 
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 for you both.

Be still! Listen! For God is with you. He will show her the way. Pray always! Trust in Him. Amen:signofcross:

God Bless! you both:heart:
