Hail, Mary, Full of grace, The Lord is with thee;
Blessed are thou among 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.

Some Anglican parishes have confession don’t they? Maybe you could talk to your vicar.

Prayers said for you.

Oh glorious apostle St. Jude, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, the name of the traitor who delivered thy beloved Master into the hands of His enemies has caused thee to be forgotten by many, but the Church honors and invokes thee universally as the patron of hopeless cases–of things despaired of. Pray for Rhiannonh who is so miserable; make use, I implore thee, of that particular privilege accorded thee of bringing visible and speedy help where help is almost despaired of. Come to her assistance in this great need, that she may receive the consolations and succor of heaven in all her necessities, tribulations and sufferings, particularly that with which is most burdensome on her mind, and that she may bless God with thee and all the elect throughout eternity. Amen

I do go to confession and have very good rapport with the vicar (who only been with us since end of July) and he knows I struggle times he gets the emails from me which is my way way of communicating. I just don’t like being on our own prayer list because I don’t want everyone knowing the more private bits because folk do like to know what you are on the list for rather than accept we need prayer etc.

Thanks for letting me know though. I only posted about the sin bit because I didn’t want to offend any RC.

Thanks for the prayer

I have from a Protestant Forum and I am happy to meet you here.
I have no idea what a mortal sin or a venial sin is. Rather I know what it is: 1) grave matter; 2) 100% knowledge; 3) 100% consent.
when do 1+2+3 meet? I do not know. I use to say that I do not have a mortal-sin-meter. So, I let Jesus Christ judge me rather.
That is an idea that is being substituted by another: the commitment.
You go from New York to LA by car. You know where LA lies but you may get lost, have a few accidents on the way, police fines, get assaulted but in the end you know that you are going to LA. You do not change into going to Toronto, Canada. You go LA no matter what. That is commitment. Rather than measuring actions mortal and venial, you measure your will. Do you love God ? Yes or No ? Peter denied Him, all the Apostles fled when He was crucified minus one, yet, they became Apostles. And the sin they made was the gravest of all,abandoning Jesus and peter betrayed Him. Yet, He was the First of the Apostles.
God forgives All, as long as we love Him and as long as we do not lose our bearings: He is the First, the Only One, the Greatest and His Son, Jesus Christ.
You fight, it is all right, I fight, we fight, that is all our struggle in this Land. Fight to reach the Promised land where we all be one day, Anglicans, Catholics around the Lamb of God who took away the Sins of the World.
God Bless You.

I** am sorry you are going through such a rough spot Rhiannonh. Never forget that you have a good and faithful heart, and that you are a beautiful, loved child of God.

No matter what kind of a mess you find yourself in, never forget the love that God has for you. He looks at you with the pride and love that a parent feels for their most precious child. God will never keep Himself from us, it is we who keep ourselves from Him.

I will keep you in my prayers Rhiannonh. ( and even say a Rosary for you ).**

We beseech you, O Lord, let the power of the Holy Spirit be always with us; let it mercifully purify our hearts, and safeguard us from all harm. Grant this through Christ our Lord, Amen.
May the Comforter, Who proceeds from You, enlighten our minds, we beseech you, O Lord, and guide us, as Your Son has promised, into all truth. We ask this through Christ, our Lord, Amen.
Holy Spirit, Sweet guest of My Soul, Abide In Me
and Grant That I May Ever abide in Thee. Amen

Hi Tuscany,
sort of what this months news letter refered to that no matter how bad life may be, there is always a way to be satisfied, Huh, may be the priest didn’t mean via self harm. but through own chat with him I do know music or more specifically choir gives me that satisfaction. though the bit, we can’t become what we should be until we acknowlege that we don’t have to become someone else seems a bit well we never going to get there to me… though don’t want to become someone else, I just want sooner or later to get to the end.
thanks for the prayer

Lord God, thou knowest what I am and where I belong.
Have mercy upon me and strengthen me,
that I may not through weakness stay in the darkness.
Lead me out into the light;
and may I find my way and be contented with it.
Amen.

The Lord bless you
and keep you;
the Lord make his face shine on you
and be gracious to you;
the Lord turn his face toward you
and give you peace.” Num 6:24-26

OK Lass you’re on my prayer list. (Ex Lancashire lad here)

Lord, may this brother/sister in Christ consider meeting with a Catholic priest so he can better understand the difference between mortal and venial sin, and even consider joining the Catholic Church, where the full truth is found. Thank you, Lord, for hearing my prayer.

am pretty certain we don’t have difference in sin as you guys do and am a member of the Catholic Church in that Anglicans are Catholic. But I could never be Roman Catholic I would find all the rules to much well I would never be out of confession for a start. Though that would keep me safe wouldn’t it, but yes, if I was doing full justice as I do I would barely be away from Confession and have to go right back in humour and in absolute necessary. We Anglicans far more relaxed thankfully and sorries to God is as important as confession itself Sorry to dissappoint you but my faith is strong within Anglican Church where truth is also taught and have very good priest Amen

Yeh, you right, Lass made me smile and guessed you were English of some kind. Not an american term most of the time. Thanks for your prayers

I am Anglican going through RCIA right now. Yes, the view on sin is the same in both churches, and confession is equally important in both churches, however in the Episcopal church there was no “confessional” (at least in my parish).

Glad to know you have a devout faith. That is what is important right now. Don’t worry about telling this forum your personal problems, or anyone else in your parish you don’t feel comfortable discussing your personal problems with for that matter. It is good, however, that you are speaking with your vicar. I might add that our parish allows us to be placed on the prayer list without explanation. General prayers for well being are helpful too, I think.

I will be praying for you. I hate to see someone going through hard times.

Let’s give thanks to God that you are alive and that you do have communication with people that care about you!
