Our new member Sam has asked me to begin a prayer intention for herself, her Dad, her family.
For some sad reason Sam has been separated from her family for 20 years.

Recently she discovered that her Dad has died. Such a discovery unearths old hurts and confusions. And new ones.

Heavenly Father, whatever caused this separation, You know that the bonds of family and of parents are lifelong and deeply important. You know the thoughts and feelings in Sam at this time. Please help her to cope with this in the most wholesome way.
If there is need for forgiveness, please fill her heart with forgiveness, If there is hurt, please heal. I ask this for both her family and for Sam.
If there is a way for reuniting this family, a way for the family to welcome Sam, and for Sam to reconnect, please show the way and help this to succeed.

Whatever the case, please let Sam find consolation in our concern and prayers.

Father forgive Sam’s father for any blame, any rejection, unforgiveness or sin of any kind. In those moments before he died, please give him repentance for any sin or failure and welcome him into Your mercy.
Father, I ask all this, and all else that needs to be said or done, in the name of Your beloved Son Jesus.

God bless you Sam.
 
Dear Father come to the aid of Sam, grant his father eternal rest in You, and bless Sam’s whole family. I pray Our Father…, Hail Mary…, Glory Be… + 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.
 
Clearly Sam has done something wrong and God has chosen to punish her by killing her dad. Instead of praying for Sam, we should thank God for killing her father and showing her the wrong in her ways. Let us not pray for her to get over the death of her father, but let us instead pray that she learn to be a good catholic.
 
Lord sometimes families are unhealthy and dysfunctional, and sometimes family members can act in harmful ways, so that family separations sometimes occur for this reason.
Whatever the reason this separation occurred in Sam’s family, we ask for healing, for her, for her family.
Lord may Your loving will be fulfilled in each of this family.

Lord we pray also for the soul of Sam’s Dad
 
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

Lord Please help Sam overcome these hard times. Lord Please, I pray for her father’s soul, may You grant him Your mercy.
 
Dear Father in Heaven, I ask again that you consider Sam and heal her long separation from her family, a long period of time for which only you can bring in healing. Bless the soul of her father, forgive him his sins and bring him to your eternal light. Our Father,…Hail Mary…, Glory Be… + Amen.
 
The Phoenix, Rove, jsaldar, Thankfulness, thank you for your prayers for Sam.
For them, she thanks you.
Things are not getting easier.

Prayer for Healing
the Family Tree
Rev. John H. Hampsch, CMF

Heavenly Father, I come before you as your child, in great need of your help; I have physical health needs, emotional needs, spiritual needs, and interpersonal needs. Many of my problems have been caused by my own failures, neglect and sinfulness, for which I humbly beg your forgiveness, Lord. But I also ask you to forgive the sins of my ancestors whose failures have left their effects on me in the form of unwanted tendencies, behavior patterns and defects in body, mind and spirit. Heal me, Lord, of all these disorders.

With your help I sincerely forgive everyone, especially living or dead members of my family tree, who have directly offended me or my loved ones in any way, or those whose sins have resulted in our present sufferings and disorders. In the name of your divine Son, Jesus, and in the power of his Holy Spirit, I ask you, Father, to deliver me and my entire family tree from the influence of the evil one. Free all living and dead members of my family tree, including those in adoptive relationships, and those in extended family relationships, from every contaminating form of bondage. By your loving concern for us, heavenly Father, and by the shed blood of your precious Son, Jesus, I beg you to extend your blessing to me and to all my living and deceased relatives. Heal every negative effect transmitted through all past generations, and prevent such negative effects in future generations of my family tree.

I symbolically place the cross of Jesus over the head of each person in my family tree, and between each generation; I ask you to let the cleansing blood of Jesus purify the bloodlines in my family lineage. Set your protective angels to encamp around us, and permit Archangel Raphael, the patron of healing, to administer your divine healing power to all of us, even in areas of genetic disability. Give special power to our family members’ guardian angels to heal, protect, guide and encourage each of us in all our needs. Let your healing power be released at this very moment, and let it continue as long as your sovereignty permits.

In our family tree, Lord, replace all bondage with a holy bonding in family love. And let there be an ever-deeper bonding with you, Lord, by the Holy Spirit, to your Son, Jesus. Let the family of the Holy Trinity pervade our family with its tender, warm, loving presence, so that our family may recognize and manifest that love in all our relationships. All of our unknown needs we include with this petition that we pray in Jesus’ precious Name. Amen.

+++++++++++++++
St. Joseph, Patron of family life, pray for us.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in your mercy, hear and answer me. Amen
 
Continuing prayers for Sam, her family,

God bless each of you who has prayed.
I don’t know Sam or the sad story behind this fragmented family.

Merciful Lord, please embrace Sam, and her separated family, and give the family members whatever graces are needed to heal them and to bring unity to their remaining family.
Lord I again ask that You will give repentance, pardon, and healing to Sam’s Dad in that time before he died, and any similar or different graces required by family members so that some day this family can be united in heaven. Thank You Lord
