Please pray for ex-boyfriend

[Lenchen]

After being friends for a few years and dating for one and a half year, my ex-boyfriend told me that he’s not sure anymore, that marriage is the vocation for him (three months before we wanted to get married) and that he’s feeling called to become a Dominican Friar.

We broke up now and he returned to his home country, to stay with his family for a while and visit a Dominican convent for a few weeks, in hopes of finding some clarity. The issue is that due to the particularities and the bureaucracy of our different countries he’ll only have until the end of July to make his decision, should he discern that marriage is his vocation after all, because we won’t be able to marry if he doesn’t return then. This makes him feel a lot of pressure and he doesn’t have a great support system in his home country, so he feels very confused, lonely and stressed about everything.

We agreed that we should give each other space to each try and discern what God wants us each to do, so we are not talking at the moment.

I’m here to ask you to please, please pray for him, so that he can be strong in this difficult situation and follow God’s will for him, no matter what it may be or how painful it may be at first.

(I hope I do not sound rude or bad. English isn’t my first language and I’m not very good yet at dealing with the subtle nuances of it)

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.

Your language is perfect and I will be praying for you and your boyfriend.

O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fountain of Mercy for us, I trust in You!

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 amongst 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.

Eternal Father, I offer you the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your Dearly Beloved Son, Our Lord, Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.

For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world. x10

Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and on the whole world.
