Please pray for my daughter, Nicki. She is in serious spiritual trouble. She has left the church, became an atheist, and is now going to a concert to see a band that sings songs about Satan. At some time in her life, she opened a window that let evil into her life and take over her heart. She was a very good child and teenager, this all began happening to her in her 20’s, and is now 28.

Please, remember her and my husband and me in your prayers. We are heartbroken, worried, sick, and at a loss. We have been through many years of praying and trying to talk to her about all of this, but it is impossible to get through to her. It has basically destroyed our family.

` Very Sorry to hear your Heart breaking story… I can understand your Anguish…
Sadly I doubt there is much you can do… I wish I had a magic wand to make it all good as it once was… Why a wonderful Child becomes this I can not understand, and I know it happens to so many good Families… I am Blessed it has not happened to my family…
I will keep you in my Thoughts… May God Bless you and help you.
 
Prayer to Saint Michael the Archangel
Saint Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle,
be our protection against the malice and snares
of the devil.
May God rebuke him we humbly pray;
and do thou,
O Prince of the Heavenly host,
by the power of God,
thrust into hell Satan and all evil spirits
who wander through the world
seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.
 
Don’t give up. I am almost in your daughter age and I remember years ago that there was a time that my parents were practically forcing me to put my foot on church. And even in those times sometimes I would hide and run away during the mass. Now, I am really thankful for their persistence and I regret all the headaches I gave them.

I will be praying for your daughter get inspired by the Holy Spirit and find back the way to the Church.
 
(((Hugs))) love and prayers for you. I understand your worries many of us parents here are experiencing similar worries.May God bless you and your husband and may He guide your daughter back to the right road.

Eternal God , in whom mercy is endless,
and the treasury of compassion inexhastible ,
look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us ,
that in difficult moments we might not despair
nor become despondent , but with great confidence ,
submit ourselves to Your Holy Will ,
which is love and mercy itself . Amen

Memorare (Prayer to Our Lady)
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
 
Yes, don’t give up on her and don’t lose hope! I was once a Pagan and then an Atheist. I returned to faith recently (in my late 30’s) and so did my husband. The Lord works in mysterious ways. Your daughter may also experience a change of heart later in her life.

Praying for you.
 
Thank you. If you can, please put her on a prayer list, her name is Nicki.
 
I just said a prayer for your daughter. May Mary help her. God bless you.

Thank you, MJ Jean. This gives me a bit of encouragement. I have had many trials in my life, but this one is so very difficult. How does a parent keep from total despair when they know the end result of this, if she doesn’t turn back? It is hard when I have been praying for 7 or 8 years, and she only gets further away, rather than coming back.
 
Open up communication with her, evil did not just enter her, there must be some reason she has rejected God. Ask her what motivates her to hold the beliefs she does and really listen. There may be trauma behind her decisions of which you are not aware.
You should try to use St Monica as an example, she not only prayed for Augustine’s conversion but she was also able to convert her pagan husband.

She (St Monica ) firmly believed that if the light of the Gospel was reflected in all her actions, then Patricius would eventually be persuaded of its power and its truth, and would submit to it more readily than if she attempted to persuade him with rational arguments. Indeed, her Christian conduct acted like a soothing balm on Patricius’ soul, and, without his realizing it, drew him gradually closer to the Faith. A

Reading about and reflecting on her life will hopefully bring you comfort.
 
Lord please help Nicki and guide her in her life Amen
