I am greatly concerned about my daughter spiritually and staying faithful to God. Starting tonight, I will be praying a novena for her to Mary. Whereas, I presently need help from my heavenly mother. I am Anglo- Catholic. And even though, I am pursing a calling to ministry as an “Anglo Catholic”, my family comes first. I have actually taken off time from my church, to go to with her to her Catholic church , to be support for her. Family is a vocation, and mine means everything to me, especially my children. So I will do anything I may feel will help to strengthen her and her walk with Christ. My daughter , who is “Roman Catholic”, is not wanting to have any religious denomination. And I am devastated. I am afraid she will turn completely away from God, whereas, she has Atheist for friends at school. She just wants to worship God at home, not joining in community, at mass. Her dad is cradle Catholic and has stopped going to church. I told her I would attend with her on Saturdays at Sacred Heart Catholic. She is getting further and further away from God. We pray together as a family and we celebrate all Catholic holy days and Holy seasons such as Lent and Advent. As an Anglo-Catholic, I celebrate the Lord much in the same way …holy days and seasons.I have always tried to do my best and I just feel so lost and worried about my baby…yes, she will always be my baby and I will always worry I guess…I am afraid it will get worse, whereas ,she is influenced so much at school by her piers. All I can do is pray, I know. Please pray for my daughter. I realize I can not do this alone and have to hand the situation to God, in prayer. Thank you and God bless

Peace and light within Christ,

Kelly

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

God bless everyone for prayers for my daughter. I am a little overwhelmed, with all, at this time. Sometimes teenage daughters do not want to listen to their moms on matters. Her father is not showing a good example to her. I am the one who has to spiritually lead my family on my own. I do not mind, I just wish I had a little help from my husband. Yesterday, my daughter told me if God is so good, then why does He make children with retardation and illnesses? I explained, but it did not do a bit of good. It is like she faults the Lord on anything she can find.
Code: 
 My main worry, at this point, is trying to understand why such a sudden change, and foremost that she does not loose faith. She tells me, your so religious mom just like them. Them, meaning religious in her Catholic church or mine.You just do not understand she says to me, because your just all about God. You do not feel the way I do, she yells at the top of her lungs. I do spend quality time with family and balance everything well. I am very religious, and I suppose I do speak of God quite often daily in my home.I am planting a church through the diocese, Anglican in a facility soon, as a catechist. I have a very devout lifestyle.I plan on going to seminary as soon as my bachelors is earned, whereas, I am desiring priesthood. I asked her if it is because I have chosen a religious path, and she replied no. I thought maybe she resented that for some reason. 

   Maybe she feels I have crammed God down her throat, so to speak. It seems like she is lashing out at me too. It is really a struggle. I really feel as if I am in Hell on Earth at times trying to do what I think is right.She won't talk to her priest, of course. He is an amazing man, older Irish priest. 

 Religion is all you talk about she tells me. We do talk about other things other than religion, of course. We are a normal family and do family things often. This is a teenager and she is mouthy at times. I love her to pieces, but she is hurting me as a mother, and as someone who knows how important it is to have a life in Christ.

  She tells me why speak to Father when I have you at home. She told me this 30 minutes ago and slammed the bedroom door. I guess that is why I am venting now...due to being upset. I do pray with the children nightly. We pray the Rosary and I do have the stations of the cross in my home. Maybe it is my fault to some extinct. I only meant to teach my children about God and His selfless sacrifice, and to love Him as He loves them. Maybe it is just a stage. I am not going to take God out of my home for her. Having God in the home is very important and important to me.

    All I can do is pray pray pray . I do believe God will hear my plea. I have strong faith. But I do think there is extreme power in prayer and along with faith, God will see me through, and "most importantly"  Good will guide Michelle home. Thanks again for listening and praying.:heart:
