Helllooooo all!
Iām back!
I had a wonderful time in Sydney with my lovely friends. It was great! I went somewhere new everyday. I havenāt prayed as much as I would have liked as by the end of a day of running after a 2yo, I was exhausted! We went to a wildlife park, the sydney aquarium, to Katoomba to visit a fellow CAF. I met aboverubies! She was lovely!
We went on a chair lift through the Blue Mountains, went to the Taronga zoo in Sydney and also went to a few beautiful Latin Massās and thoroughlly enjoyed myself and so did my son.
Then I get back to realityā¦ ahhhh!
Oh well, I had a lovely break and my friends were so spiritually uplifting. I havenāt cooked in 9 days!
I hope all of you are well and I have remembered you in my quick and very tired prayers.
Where is Diana?

**PRAYER TO ST. MONICA
Dear St. Monica,
troubled wife and mother,
many sorrows pierced your heart during your lifetime.
Yet, you never despaired or lost faith.
With confidence, persistence, and profound faith,
you prayed daily for the conversion
of your beloved husband, Patricius,
and your beloved son, Augustine;
your prayers were answered.
Grant me that same fortitude, patience,
and trust in the Lord.
Intercede for me, dear St. Monica,
that God may favorably hear my plea for
the conversion of my husband, healing and salvation of our marriage, and the strong faith of our son, the conversion of all sinners in our families and of the spouses being prayed for here by CAF members,**
and grant me the grace to accept His Will in all things,
through Jesus Christ, our Lord,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, forever and ever.
Amen.
Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us now and at the hour of our death.

hi all
I am a born Catholic and my husband is too. we have been married for 5 months but know each other for over 5 years. Eever since we go married i have been praying for his convension because he has become the person i dont know. He has resorted to drinking alcohol and not going for Mass at all. When it does happen that he does go for Mass, he will just go and recieve Communion as if nothing happened to him, without even going for confession or anything. So thank you very much for the prayer to St Monica, I have found my pole to keep my balanced because i was clearly loosing it.
thank you very much

Well hello Zizi, welcome here with usā¦and this is where you posted first, so this must be where your heart is hurting the most.
For this i am sorry, but here we can help each other out without even realizing it, just by telling our stories of what we went through that day, and comment and pray for others here.
We need our husbands to be a part of our lives, and our children, and when they are not, we really are not complete. To aknowlege that there is help in leaning on a group of friends going through the same thing is something that will help us cope.
So stick around hun, and i am praying for you and yours!

Oh Dear, where is Diana? She was last online on April 23rdā¦ and Debbie, Lambe serenade, I havenāt seen her post for a while. I could have missed it as I have just skimmed through.
I will write a list of those that have posted this year so we can remember who to pray for.
I do hope Diana is ok. How worrying.
God bless everyone. Still praying.

Here is everyone that has posted from the beginning of this year.
I am up to page 87 but will finish tomorrow as its time for bed.
I left a couple out that seemed to post to encourage but not necessarily have unbelieving husbands.
Those in bold are regularsā¦ so if they go MIA we will know.
Sorry if I have missed anyone. I have yet to finish though and I do not know of a quick way of doing this except going through each page.

WOW, you certainly are the Fairy landing pixie dust on me this morning. I prayed for this listā¦hehe.
I will copy and paste the final lists together when done, into a word document. This will be easier to keep adding new arrivals to. I can print them off when ever i need to update. So when my mine is failing, God sees the intentions of all. Not that he does not know what i am thinking, but you get the jist of it.
Thanks Julesā¦
actually my mind thanks you too!

Hi Ladies,
I wanted to let you know I am here. I check in every day and pray for your intentions at night as I fall asleep. Iāve been sitting back and sort of regrouping. I havenāt been in to my spiritual director for over a month and am trying to remain calm in my spirit.
Things are up and down and quite frankly I have no idea where DH is in his thinking, drinking or spirituality, therefore I have no idea where I stand with him. At times he seems like he is reaching out and connecting only to draw back and ābiteā, if you know what I mean.
I only reach out a hand when he reaches out to me at this point. If it gets rejected I simply step back and wait. The reaching out is happening more often but isnāt lasting for long. A day or two at most.
Tell me if you think this is awful. DH has had work obligations recently which have taken him away from home, out of town, for several days in a row two different times. He is leaving again this week. Him being gone has been like a mini vacation for me, and I look forward to it on some levels. I miss him when heās gone, but itās nice to not tip toe around wondering how he is going to be, wondering if heās drinking, etc., etc. What
do you think? Is it wrong/bad for me to feel the way I do? I have a sense of guilt. I never stop praying for him, loving him. I just want our marriage to be solid, healthy, supportive and loving, so I guess it kind of feels like Iām betraying my own desires and prayers by enjoying his time away from us.
I just ask all of you to continue to pray for me. I get a sense something really important is around the corner. I just donāt know how long the road is ahead before I get to the corner. After all, this has been going on intensely for over a year and in my blindness for around 10 years, so the road is long.
On another note, I struggled and bit my tongue when we were being attacked here at St.Mās but I was so proud of all of you who responded with grace, peace and beautiful kind answers. You go girls!!
Oh, and jules, thanks for the list. It gives a greater sense of how real this is. Iām sure for each of us who have posted here, there are many many who have stopped in, read all or part of the thread and have been affirmed and/or prayed for us.

Dearest Diana,
I am praying for you.
Regarding what you said in the red bolded text, I have a sense the reason for your absence is that you have in fact been granted the courage, and means to leave. I pray the absence isnāt due to what you told us in the black bold text. I pray you are safe and find healing in mind and spirit Diana. Suffering souls are profound āpray-ersā and are close to God. Based on what we know about you Diana, I have faith you are still praying for all of us. For all of this, and for what you said in blue bold, I am going to offer my entire evenings prayers tonight for you Diana. Additionally, my time will be spent saying my rosary on my knees which right now is a painful thing to do.
*** Heavenly Father hold Your dear daughter Diana close to Your Heart. Embrace this loving a sacrificial soul and bring relief for her in her pain. Sooth her soul and give her the answers and help she so desperately needs. Send those who are best equipped to aid her in her deepest and fervent time of need. May her Guardian Angel be ever at her side and may a blessed and holy army of Angels protect and guide her through this darkness. Holy Spirit shine Your Light so she may raise her face to the Glory and Love of our Savior, Jesus Christ.***
