I’m in college, just starting my senior year. I’m finding myself nearly $4,000 short on my bill for the semester, and the financial aid that I was depending on to pay my bill just fell out from under me and I’ve been told that I have to come up with the money by a week from Friday at the very latest.

I have no other options for various reasons. And I don’t want to have to drop out because of this, but my school won’t help me and I don’t know what to do. Any prayers you can offer would be so appreciated. I’m scared.
 
Prayer to Our Lady of Perpetual Help

Mary, our Mother,
we know that you are our Perpetual Help,
not only in our spiritual need but in our material need as well.
With humble hearts and childlike confidence we beg you
to help RuthTherese in her present financial stress.
Due to unforseen circumstances,
she is in dire need of $4,000 to meet her just debts.
Dear Mother, we are not asking for wealth or prosperity,
but merely for help in satisfying her pressing obligations
so that she doesn’t have to drop out of college.
You are the Queen of Heaven and earth,
and, as such, the dispenser of so many favors
granted by your Son, Jesus. We know you are
most kind and generous to all your devoted children.
Loving Mother, we plead with you
to obtain the financial help RuthTerese so desperately needs
in her present situation. We thank you, dear Mother.
We ask these intentions through your son,
Our Lord Jesus Christ, if it be His will.

Amen

Oh glorious apostle St. Jude, faithful servant and friend of Jesus,
the name of the traitor who delivered thy beloved Master into the hands of His enemies
has caused thee to be forgotten by many, but the Church honors and invokes thee universally
as the patron of hopeless cases–of things despaired of. Pray for me who am so miserable; make use, I implore thee,
of that particular privilege accorded thee 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, particularly (mention your request), and that I may bless God with thee and all the elect
throughout eternity. I promise thee, O blessed St. Jude, to be ever mindful of this great favor, and I will never
cease to honor thee as my special and powerful patron, and to do all in my power to encourage devotion to thee. Amen
 
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.

You have my prayers.

“Do not abandon yourselves to despair. We are the Easter people and hallelujah is our song.”
“I plead with you! Never, ever give up on hope, never doubt, never tire, and never become discouraged. Be not afraid.”
“If He asks much of you, it is because He knows you can give much.”
  • St Pope John Paul II
 
*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.
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever and ever.
Amen

Hail Mary full of Grace, the Lord is with thee.
Blessed are 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

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.
 
Prayer to St. Anthony

Blessed be God in His Angels and in His Saints.

St. Anthony, gentlest of Saints, your love for God and charity for his creatures, made you worthy, when on earth, to possess miraculous powers. Miracles waited on your word, which you were ready to speak for those in trouble or anxiety. Encouraged by this thought, I ask you to obtain the money that RuthTherese requires.

The answer to my prayer may require a miracle, even so, you are the Saint of Miracles.

O gentle and loving St. Anthony, whose heart was full of sympathy, whisper my petition into the ears of the Infant Jesus, who loved to be held in your arms; and the gratitude of my heart will ever by yours. Through Christ Our Lord, Amen.

Remembering you in my daily prayers. May God bless you with a solution!
 
Thank you everyone very much for your prayers. I was able to get a loan squared away just in time and all should be well this semester. God bless!
