Belle,

Praying that your morning sickness eases up. I am also praying that your husband will get a job - SOON! I will ask for St. Joseph’s intercession! God bless you, Belle!
Thanks! I finished a novena to St. Rita last night – I’m hoping she will intercede for us as well. God, please hear and answer us!
 
Prayer to Saint Joseph for all sick husbands to find help.

O glorious St. Joseph,
friend of the Sacred Heart of Jesus,
thou whose power renders impossible things possible,
come to our aid in our present trouble and distress.
Take these important and difficult affairs
which we recommend to your protection,
that they may end happily.

O dear St. Joseph,
all our confidence is in you.
Let it not be said that we have invoked you in vain,
and since you are so powerful with Jesus and Mary,
show that your goodness equals power.

Amen.

St. Joseph, friend of the Sacred Heart of Jesus,
pray for us and for all who invoke your aid.

**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 everyone,

I just wanted to let you all know, that I’m still praying for our DHs. I’m going through a bit of a dry spell right now, but I’m offering up prayers during the consecration. The moment when the priest lifts up the sacred host and says, “Do this in memory of Me.”

What a very sweet thing to do, and i never thought of doing that then, but it too would be an absolutely perfect time, and the essence of topic at the moment, and it’s importance to us…what a team.

I double this idea, and plan on borrowing it if i can…it is not copy writed is it? 😛

Monday, noon, and Bee Sweet is sweeter than ever remembering her prayer posts…thank you dear.

The rest of us, well i think we slept in, or are dragging our heels somewhere. For all of the ladies, and their men, children (the same sometimes) I wish today to be a well one.

Code:
 I humbly thank you dear St. Monica for taking my prayers with love and tenderness
and placing them before our Beloved Father and His Son, our Savior Jesus Christ.
You have asked Them for me to grant these lowly intercessions for our good that we may
better serve Him and one another.
AMEN:signofcross:
 
WOO HOO, there she be…that’s three out for now!

You see, eventually we will all notice it is a Monday.

Slow to rise, but we can kick butt once we get started!

Hello, ladies! I’m back, with some pretty good news.

I had a talk with my hubby last Monday, and it didn’t go so well. He was OK with the NFP, at first. Then I discussed some other changes in the marital act and he lost it. I really learned a lot about his attitude toward “the Church”, and authority, and abortion. So I let it go and let him have some time to cool off, think about things and waited for his reply.

His response was to e-mail me. Ugh! Not the best way to communicate. Especially since we had a super busy week and I didn’t check my e-mail until Thursday at 11pm!! So for 3 days, he’s waiting for me to discuss the e-mail (which I didn’t know about) and I’m waiting for him to sit down and talk face to face. Very tense!

Anyway, we finally did talk again. He realized I’m not using NFP to trick into having another baby right away (watch I’ll get pregnant the first month! :doh2: ). And I explained how I don’t blindly follow arbitrary rules set up by the “Church”, but follow rules set down by God, because it makes sense to me to do so. It’s amazing that I never realized his resentment toward what he apparently sees as an evil institution robbing man of his ability to enjoy life. :mad:

After a long talk, I think I got him to realize we can still have a full sex life, but there a few things that I can’t do anymore. We ended up in a good place, and will be studying NFP together. I told him I’ll never mention his coming to church again, but he’s always invited, and he knows I want him to come.

I want to thank you for all of your prayers and thoughts. We still have a long way to go, but I am confident in the power of prayer.

I also have to share my story of the green scapular. I was given one by my parents shortly after my son was born. At the time, I was not going to church, and didn’t think much of it - I didn’t even understand what it was for. I was pretty overwhelmed with the new baby and other personal things going on, so I stuck in my nightstand drawer and forgot all about it (until I read this thread).

Several months later I started going back to church again, and thus my reversion began. I know the green scapular is more about conversion, but I think it applies here too!! So now that I know about it, I pray with it daily for my husband. Pretty cool, huh! :getholy:

Hope all is well with you, and you’re still in my prayers!
:gopray:
 
Cat,

That is great news! I’m so happy for you. Please keep us posted and we’ll keep praying that all continues to go well! Prayers ascending for you and your family! Our Father…Hail Mary…Glory Be :gopray2: :harp:
