Please pray for my friend. I just found out yesterday that she left the convent that she has been living at for a year and a half. I know no details, only that she is home with her family and I am trying to get in touch with her by Facebook. I was surprised to see her on the list of people I might know on FB and sent her a friend request immediately. I’m wondering if it is because her dad has Parkinson’s and has gotten worse, or if she just discovered she wasn’t called to religious life either in that convent or at all. Please, please, please pray for her. I know this cannot be easy. Before she left, she seemed absolutely sure that the order she entered was where she was called to for life. Everything just seemed to click. To see her back surprises me, to say the least, but I’m going to support her as much as I can when I finally get in touch with her. 🙂
 
I thank God that your friend has such a caring friend, and ask God to help you and all family and friends to encourage her in any way necessary.
I ask You our God to give many blessings to this woman and her family, and especially her ill father.
May Your loving desire be fulfilled in their lives.
 
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.

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.
 
PATER NOSTER, qui es in caelis, sanctificetur nomen tuum. Adveniat regnum tuum. Fiat voluntas tua, sicut in caelo et in terra. Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie, et dimitte nobis debita nostra sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris. Et ne nos inducas in tentationem, sed libera nos a malo. Amen.
 
Entrusting your friend to Our Lady’s motherly care. May Our Lady ever guide, strengthen and keep her close to her Son, Jesus.

Hail Mary, full of grace …

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
 
Thank you all for your prayers. I appreciate them and I know my friend will too. I still haven’t managed to get in touch with her because it appears that she doesn’t get on the computer much (no computer in the convent, so she’s been used to it). I hope to get in touch with her soon. 🙂

Praying for your intentions….

Lord Jesus, You have said,
“Learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart.”
With confidence in Your loving heart
which offers rest to weary souls,
we come to You in this time of special need.
In Your unfailing love,
read the prayer that is written on our hearts,
and grant the grace that we ask of You,
in accordance with Your holy will.
In Your name we pray.
Amen.
