St. Anthony, perfect imitator of Jesus, who received from God the special power of restoring lost things, grant that **deb816 may find her wedding rings ** which have been lost. At least restore to her peace and tranquility of mind, the loss of which has afflicted her even more than her material loss. To this favor, she asks another of you: that she may always remain in possession of the true good that is God. Let her rather lose all things than lose God, the supreme good. Let her never suffer the loss of her greatest treasure, eternal life with God. Amen.
Dear Saint Joseph, you were yourself once faced with the responsibility of providing the necessities of life for Jesus and Mary. Look down with fatherly compassion upon the unemployed in their anxiety over their present inability to support their families. Please help them to find gainful employment very soon, so that this heavy burden of concern will be lifted from their hearts and that they are soon able to provide for those whom God has entrusted to their care. Help them to guard against bitterness and discouragement, so that they may emerge from this trial spiritually enriched and with even greater blessings from God.
Amen.
