Prayers for Hope and Comfort
Prayer Attributed to St. Augustine
Watch, dear Lord, with those who wake or watch or weep tonight, and give your angels charge over those who sleep. Tend your sick ones, O Lord Jesus Christ, rest your weary ones, bless your dying ones, soothe your suffering ones, shield your joyous ones, and all for your love’s sake. Amen.

Let Nothing Disturb You
Let nothing disturb you. Let nothing frighten you. All things pass. God does not change. Patience achieves everything. Whoever has God lacks nothing. God alone suffices.
God has no body now on earth but yours; no hands but yours; no feet but yours. Yours are the eyes through which the compassion of Christ must look out on the world. Yours are the feet with which He is to go about doing good. Yours are the hands with which He is to bless His people.
Amen.
(St. Teresa of Ávila)

Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle; be our safe-guard 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, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. 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.
 
***“Prayer to the Sacred Heart for Perseverance”

O Sacred Heart of Jesus, living and life-giving fountain of eternal life,
infinite treasure of the Divinity, and glowing furnace of love, You are
my refuge and my sanctuary. O adorable and glorious Savior, consume
my heart with that burning fire that ever inflames Your Heart.
Pour down on my soul those graces which flow from Your love. Let my
heart be so united with Yours that our wills may be one, and mine
may in all things be conformed to Yours. May Your Will be the rule
of both my desires and my actions. Amen.

~St. Alphonsus Liguori~

Remember, when we are at our weakest, He is at his strongest.

Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of Your faithful and kindle in them
the fire of Your love.
Send forth Your Spirit and they shall be created, and You shall
renew the face of the earth. 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.

St Joseph please pray for and intercede on behalf of this family so that they may mirror the Holy Family, wh/ you protected and guided. In Jesus’ Name I pray :crossrc:

Peace & all good
 
Wow! Thankyou so much for all of your prayers So much has happened in the past few weeks, I don’t even know where to start!

We had another homeschooling family come to stay - we didn’t know until they arrived, but they were very anti-Catholic, to the point of even being anti-Trinity, anti-Christmas, etc

They had planned to leave after the 2nd day, they had not realised we were Catholic, and I think they were very keen to leave! But on that morning, their car broke down, and it took a further 8 days to have it fixed.

We believe there was a deliberate action of God in this situation - it made for 8 days of fellowship and theological discussions. Not that any grand changes were made on either side, but nothing like a good old Protestant-Catholic discussion to make a family pull together! I should mention it was all very amicable - no raised voices, and each side ‘held their tongue’ at times - we all think we are ‘right’, and all of us realised this, so as to talk about things, but with kindness and gentleness.

And, the discussions continue, even with our visitors now gone - at the moment, our family has pulled together and are sharing and chatting like we haven’t in ages.

Thankyou so much for all of your prayers, I feel so very blessed that so many of you took the time to pray for our family - just knowing we are not alone has meant so much.

WOW! Praise God ! You brought a tear to my eye, :bighanky:, but it’s a good thing.
Isn’t prayer remarkable. Also, you have planted a seed in these people that will now begin to grow.
Who knows, maybe in a year or two they may come home to Mother Church.
I,m glad things are going better for you and your family.
May the grace of God rain down on you and your family.
And may our Blessed Mother Mary guide and protect you all.
Will continue to pray for you…***

Hi - I’m new here, I hope you all don’t mind - could you say a small prayer for my family? We’re a Catholic homeschooling family, but instead of a happy, thriving home, we seem to always be angry, miserable, and lonely - we live in a very remote area with no Catholic friends or other homeschoolers nearby.

We’re OK - but I believe God intends a much fuller and richer life for us, rather than snapping, fighting and bickering; I feel I’m drowning in anger and sorrow, and that joy in life is gone. There is so much work to do, I’m just not managing.

I know with prayer, though, we can get through this.

Thankyou so much,

MARIAN PRAYER OF
SAINT GREGORY OF NAREK (A.D. 1010)
Assist me by the wings of your prayers,
O you who are called the Mother of the living,
so that on my exit from this valley of tears
I may be able to advance without torment
to the dwelling of life
that has been prepared for us
to lighten the end of a life burdened by my iniquity.

Healer of the sorrows of Eve,
change my day of anguish into a feast of gladness.
Be my Advocate,
ask and supplicate.
For as I believe in your inexpressible purity,
so do I also believe in
the good reception that is given to your word.

O you who are blessed among women,
help me with your tears
for I am in danger.
Bend the knee to obtain my reconciliation,
O Mother of God.

Be solicitous for me for I am miserable,
O Tabernacle of the Most High.
Hold out your hand to me as I fall,
O heavenly Temple.

Glorify your Son in you:
may he be pleased to operate Divinely in me
the miracle of forgiveness and mercy.
Handmaid and Mother of God,
may your honour be exalted by me,
and may my salvation be manifested through you.
