I saw a little boy at the mall being abused by his stepfather/mom’s boyfriend a few weeks ago. I alerted the mall cops, but the guy ran away before the cop could get to him. I don’t know these people personally, just know what I saw and would like to pray for the boy’s well-being, and that God will intervene and fix this situation.
 
Praying for your intention.

Philippians 4:6-7 : Have no anxiety about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will keep your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
 
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.

Jesus please protect this boy from abuse and harm.
Bless him with whatever help and intervention that will keep him safe in a happy childhood
 
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.

PRAYER IN A TIME OF TRIBULATION

O Lord, hear my cry pouring out from a troubled heart. The sorrow which clutches at my soul has driven me to You my protector, my True Friend in time of need. You know, my God, all my failings, my faults and my sins as well as the torment gripping my soul. My greatest sorrow should be for my disregard of Your holy commandments in the past, and I sincerely hope that you will grant me the grace of true contrition. O my Savior, hide not Your Face from me in this tribulation, let the light of Your Countenance shine upon me that I may be illuminated by Its love. If it be Your will, lighten this burden from me, yet should it be a means of my salvation, help me, help me O Lord, to carry this cross, for alone I can do nothing. Radiate Your love upon Your prodigal child O Lord, this beggar who knocks at Your door seeking shelter in Your Sacred Heart; this once proud earthen vessel made of clay seeks You, O Christ, and in a newly found faith, firmly believes that you will receive him in Your limitless Love and Mercy. Amen.

Jesus, I trust in You!

Prayer to Saint Maximilian Maria Kolbe

St. Maximilian, amidst the hate and lonely misery of Auschwitz, you brought love into the lives of fellow captives and sowed the seeds of hope amidst despair. You bore witness to the world by word and deed that “Love alone creates.” Help me to become more like you. With the Church and Mary and you, may I proclaim that “Love alone creates.” To the hungry and oppressed, the naked and homeless, the scorned and hated, the lonely and despairing, may I proclaim the power of Christ’s love, which endures forever and ever. Amen.

For women and men who are victims of domestic violence, may God help them free themselves
from abuse and live safely in the peace of Christ. Lord in your mercy, hear our prayer.
For women who are suffering physical, emotional, economic or sexual abuse in their own homes,
may they find the strength to free themselves from the violence and live in peace.
For children traumatized by violence in their own homes, may God protect them from the
violence, free them from the abuse and heal their wounds. Lord, hear our prayer.
For all men and women who abuse their partners, whether physically, emotionally, economically
or sexually, may God help them recognize their abusive behavior and find help to turn lives
around and be instruments of peace.
For our community of faith, that we become as compassionate and sensitive toward victims of
domestic violence as Jesus would be.
For all victims of domestic violence, may they feel neither guilt nor shame but have the courage
to seek help in order to free themselves from abuse.
For all of us and our parish that we might not judge victims of domestic violence but offer them
the support they need to free themselves from abuse.
For victims of domestic violence – those who suffer emotional, physical or sexual abuse – at the
hands of a loved one, we pray for a cessation of the violence and for help and support for the
victim and perpetrator. We pray to the Lord…
For perpetrators of domestic violence that they may stop their abuse and seek professional help.
We pray to the Lord …
For those who suffer domestic violence that they may know they are not alone, they are loved
and help is only a phone call away. We pray to the Lord …
For those who witness domestic violence – especially children – that they may understand that
violence is never an expression of love, is never acceptable and must never be imitated. We pray
to the Lord …
For victims of domestic violence that they may know that their suffering is not a cross to bear or
a punishment from God. We pray to the Lord …
For victims of abuse, may they know God’s love and understand that they are not alone. May
they be guided to help, support and safety, we pray to the Lord.
For our families, may they know God’s love and may they share this love with kindness and
consideration for one another, free from abuse and controlling behaviors, we pray to the Lord. Amen
 
Prayer for Abused Children

Lord Jesus, ou said, “Let the children
come to me, and do not prevent them;
for the kingdom of heaven belongs
to such as these.”

Loving Savior, I implore You to send
concerned adults to help abused children,
especially the boy in the mall, for whom
this prayer is offered. Shower Your
blessings on @Rachellem56, who
intervened on behalf of the abused boy
in the mall. In Your Holy Name, 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 Rachelle and the little boy. Lord, hear my prayer for her intentions and have mercy on the whole world. (x10)

I did pray a decade of my daily Divine Mercy Chaplet for your intention.
