During this weekend’s Masses, we once again hear St Luke’s touching Gospel story about the compassionate father ( a representation of God Himself ) who joyfully runs to meet the wayward son when he finally returns.
If you are concerned about a loved one who, like that son, has squandered his inheritance from the Family of God - has left the beautiful ‘home’ Christ established in His Church - please join me in PRAYING PRODIGALS HOME once daily.
PRAYER FOR FALLEN AWAY CATHOLICS
Eternal and merciful Father, I give you thanks for the gift of Your Divine Son who suffered, died, and rose from the dead for all mankind. I thank You also for my Catholic Faith and ask Your help that I may grow in fidelity by prayer, by works of charity, and by Penance and the Holy Eucharist.
You gave St Monica a spirit of selfless love manifested in her constant prayer for the conversion of her son Augustine. Inspired by boundless confidence in Your power to move hearts and by the success of her prayer, I ask the grace to imitate her constancy in my prayer for (Name/s) who no longer share/s in the intimate life of Your Catholic family.
Grant through my prayer and witness that (Name/s) may be open to the promptings of the HOLY SPIRIT to return to the loving union with Your people.
Grant also that my prayer be ever hopeful and that I may never judge another, for You alone can read hearts I ask this through Christ, our Lord. Amen.
Dear Jesus, please guide all fallen away Catholics in our lives back to the Catholic Church and lead them to Heaven. Amen.
