I need prayers. I have been a convert since 2012, after 40 years as a protestant. The Mass is such a precious gift from God, but I don’t know what’s happening. Every single time I so much as want to go to Mass, I get some kind of a sleep attack. I suffer form idiopathic hypersomnia which is a rare incurable disease which causes excessive daytime sleepiness. In addition, due to my sleep apnea apparently my cpap machine is making my eyes sore, red and sleepy. I also have droopy eyelids. So please pray for me that I can recover and start attending Mass and confession again.
 
Sincere Prayers:
Our Father who art in heaven…
Hail Mary, full of grace…
Hail Mary, full of grace…
Hail Mary, full of grace…
Glory Be to the Father…
 
Have mercy on me, O LORD, for I am weak; O LORD, heal me, for my bones are troubled.
~Psalm 6:2

Our Father,
Who art in heaven,
hallowed be Thy name;
Thy kingdom come;
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Amen.
 
You are in my prayers. For your health and spirit.
Memorare

*Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,
that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection,
implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence,
I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother;
to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful.
O Mother of the Word Incarnate,
despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me.

Amen

Maybe treat your confession/mass times as you would a doctors appointment.
Sometimes it’s how I treat my confession time.
I’m sick and Christ fixes what is ailing me. (I have in the past made appointments with the parish office for confession because I couldn’t go during regular confession times.)
As long as you are able to safely get too and from the church/parish office please go.

O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fountain of Mercy for us, I trust in You!

Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst 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.

I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried; He descended into hell; on the third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty; from there He will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.

Eternal Father, I offer you the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your Dearly Beloved Son, Our Lord, Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.

For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world.

Saint Michael, the archangel, defend us in battle, be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil, may God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do you, O’ Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God thrust into Hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who prowl about the world for the ruin of souls.

Amen.

Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Amen.

Praying the novena prayer to Our Lady of Mount Carmel for you. You might like to pray it, too. Congratulations on your 5th anniversary last Saturday! 🙂 +

O most beautiful Flower of Mount Carmel, Fruitful Vine, Splendor of Heaven, who brought forth the Son of God still remaining a Virgin, assist us in this necessity.
O Star of the Sea, help us, and show us that you are our Mother.

O Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and earth, we humbly ask you from the depths of our heart to help us in this necessity. There are none who can withstand your power.
O show us that you are our Mother.

O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee. Sweet Mother, we place this cause in your hands. Amen.

I made it to church today. Your prayers are very powerful. I sensed a spiritual battle happening last night where an angel had to win a victory for me to be able to come.
 
Praying…
Our Father who art in heaven…
Hail Mary, full of grace…
Hail Mary, full of grace…
Hail Mary, full of grace…
Glory Be to the Father…
 
(.) Yay! God bless you! Glad to know you will be attending Mass and Adoration. Keeping you in prayer.
 
Please continue to pray for me. I am getting sleep attacks again this morning. One reason is I have to help my daughter finish her homework and it keeps me up late at night. Please pray that I would have more wisdom on how to handle different situations that interfere with me getting to Mass.
