St. Monica: I am new to this site but not new in my pain. I am sad and deeply distressed about my husband and the choices he has made. I made a vow to God to support him and so badly want to be a good wife to him. He cannot see the pain he is causing me and his children. Please pray for me to discern God’s will and not my own.
 
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

Hello,
I haven’t visited here in a while, but all of the intentions on this thread are in my prayers. Please pray for my family. My mother has been diagnosed with terminal cancer. I have two young children and she has always been my rock through my troubled marriage. My husband is pulling away from me even more now, which really really hurts. My parents live with us now and I am also afraid that seeing me hurting and my husband’s irresponsibility will hurt her and make her feel worse…please please pray for a miracle for her health and for the conversion of my husband!! Saint Monica, Saint Rita, Blessed Anne Marie, we really need your help right now!

St Monica, please pray for my boyfriend, we are a family of 4. Sometimes he is happy about me wanting to become Catholic and to raise our children that way and at other times his heart is completely closed to God and his teachings. Please pray that I have enough strength and am able to conduct myself in a way that will inspire and bring him and my family closer to God.

Hello everyone, Im new to this forum, I actually found it when I googled looking for St. Monica novena. My boyfriend was raised and confirmed Catholic(as am I), but he has gone away from the church. In life before he has made some not so wise choices, and due to that he is now at times very distant and seemingly uncaring. Please help me pray that he comes back to the church, and that his heart softens. If anyone else has had this issue and has any info/advice please let me know. Im new to forums all together so Im sorry if this is not a very good first post. Thank you all, God Bless!
