My husband got a call today from our landlord saying that the bank plans to do a lock out on our rental house on Friday if we can’t pay rent to him by Thursday. My DH lost his job at the end of may and we barely made it to now when we are finally getting paychecks from his new job. However, paychecks don’t come all at once and we owe him at least $850 on Thursday and we don’t have that money…not even close. The Saint Vincent De Paul society for our area is out of funds (they have helped us once before, anyway…) and we don’t know where else to go. My husband will probably ask his parents, but we already owe them money from when he lost his job and so we are not sure that they will help us. To top that all of we have a 1 year old and a 5 day old newborn. As of right now we are wondering if we should be packing up our things. 😦 We have places I’m sure we could go if we were evicted, but obviously we are trying to avoid that.

Any prayers you can offer up for us would be appreciated.

Thanks
 
You should move this thread to the Prayer Intentions forum.

I’m praying for you and your family. God bless.
 
Thank you. I posted it here because if anyone knows of anywhere else we can go for assistance or has any suggestions I’m open to hearing those suggestions and you can’t post them in prayer intentions threads. 🙂 I will re-post it there, as well, though.
 
Have you tried the Knights of Columbus? Check if your parish has a council, or check around your district for the nearest possible council. You may need to wait until a monthly meeting is convened to have one of them present your case for a vote.

How about the Salvation Army? I know they help the homeless a lot. Your local branch may or may not provide cash assistance.

Have you looked into the federal TANF program? From the information you have given, it sounds like you should qualify for this.

I’m afraid that most or all of these options take some time, which you don’t have. I will pray for you too. It’s no fun being homeless.

On a very similar situation in 1999, faced by my former maid who was a widow, we prayed the Rosary and there was a miracle. I am praying the Rosary for your intention
 
Dear Lord, I pray that this family will quickly be given a way to avoid eviction.

Hail Mary,…
Our Father,…
Glory be,…
 
Sacred Heart of Jesus,

for your intention.

Jesus, I trust in You!
 
Dear God,
please help the Scardinoz family, they are in such a desperate situation.
In Jesus’s name,
Amen.
 
Hail Mary conceived without sin.
Pray for us who have recourse to thee.

Hail Mary conceived without sin.
Pray for us who have recourse to thee.

Hail Mary conceived without sin.

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.
 
Remember, O most loving 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,
though burdened by my sins,
I fly to you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother.
To you 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.
