Please pray for my friend’s co-worker in her mid twenties who’s just been married a few months after a short dating period of just a few months. They have recently re-located to another state after her husband lost his job for a verbal outburst. I’m not sure of the details, but it sounds like he has laid hands on her. My friend told me over lunch that her friend’s dad was abusive growing up, her first marriage ended due to lack of physical intimacy from her husband, had a live-in relationship for 4-5 years and ended it b/c she came to the conviction that it was morally wrong and now this relationship.

She and her new husband are big on hunting and so there are several firearms in the home (rifes AND hand guns). Please pray for this young couple.
 
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.

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 are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.

Amen.

For Help in Trials

Most holy apostle St. Jude, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, the name of the traitor who delivered your beloved Master into the hands of His enemies has caused you to be forgotten by many. But the Church honors and invokes you universally as the patron of hopeless cases–of things despaired of. Pray for me who feels so hopeless. Make use, I implore you, of that particular privilege accorded to you of bringing visible and speedy help where help is almost despaired of. Come to my assistance in this great need, that I may receive the consolations and succor of heaven in all my necessities, tribulations and sufferings, in particular JLCecilia’s friend’s co-worker , and that I may bless God with you and all the elect throughout eternity. I promise you, O Blessed St. Jude, to be ever mindful of this great favor, and I will never cease to honor you as my special and powerful patron, and to do all in my power to encourage devotion to you. Amen.
 
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. :signofcross:

St. Michael the archangel, defend us in battle. Be our defense against

throughout the world, seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen

Praying for this couple.

Memorare

REMEMBER, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence, I fly to thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother; to thee do I come; before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.
 
Hail Mary,

Amen.
 
Prayer for an Abusive Marriage

Oh God,

I’m in deep trouble. My world is confused and chaotic. I feel scared. How much abuse is too much? When he said he was sorry, is he? Will he change?

My heart screams out for help. Why doesn’t anybody hear? Why is my husband so cold? It is as though the heart I used to know has left and the shell remains. He hurts me so much. I’ve tried so hard to make him happy. Nothing makes him happy. Will he hurt me even more next time? Where do I turn? Who can help me?

Lord, no one seems to see the bruises on my heart. No one’s words soothe my pain. My life is shattered in thousands of pieces. Their jagged edges lay before me, taunting me that I will never be whole.

I won’t give up that you can help me. I will choose to see you as my healer and my comforter. I will watch you as you come to me tonight and bend down and begin to pick up every shattered piece and gather them together. When those large, razor-sharp pieces slice through the tips of your fingers, I will remember that this isn’t the first time that you shed your blood for me.

As I see you humbly kneel down before me, carefully picking up each painful memory of my life, I see the heart of God. You ache over my anguish. I am not alone. I know that I will be whole again.

Amen.

St. Rita, pray for all those in troubled relationships.
