    7. Not only for me. Actually, more for someone else.

      Comment by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf — 22 November 2009 @ 11:52 pm
    8. God knows for whom I am praying even if I don’t. Sending prayers your way, Father. (BTW, I accidentally filled out another registration form before, silly me, I realized that I was already registered. Hope that does not cause you any confusion or extra time. Sorry!)

      Comment by ElizabethMahlou — 23 November 2009 @ 12:03 am

    10. I got bad news of someone else. This is not only about me.

      Comment by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf — 23 November 2009 @ 12:28 am
    11. I’ll pray for the other person too. However, I note that your twitter says you’re not feeling well, that you’re still very tired even after a nap. Are you getting sick?

      Comment by Melania — 23 November 2009 @ 12:32 am
    12. I will pray for you both. God bless you, Fr Z.

      Comment by BLC — 23 November 2009 @ 12:39 am

    22. All of my sacrifices this month are offered up for the special prayer intentions of others: this includes you and your “other”. Di meliora.

      Comment by VivaLaMezzo — 23 November 2009 @ 6:11 am
    23. Will be adding your intentions as I pray at Mass this morning!

    30. Please, Lord, give comfort and solace to those in need. May Your Peace reign in their hearts, enlighten them, console them and give them the confidence and the knowledge that You are with them now and forever. Holy Mary, Mother of God, intercede for us now and forever, Amen.

    32. A Memorare and my daily dedication for priests are for you and yours, good Father.

      Comment by Thomas in MD — 23 November 2009 @ 9:43 am
    33. Done.

      Comment by paterpetri — 23 November 2009 @ 9:52 am
    34. I will be praying for you and the other person(s). I’ve been including you Father in my daily prayer that is specifically for Priests. In this year for Priests a project sprang up to adopt in prayer a particular Priest. The names of each of the Priests in our Archdiocese were printed on prayer cards. We include that particular Priest in our daily prayer.

      You and your intentions will be lifted up to the Lord and to Our Blessed Mother, Mary.

      Comment by wanda — 23 November 2009 @ 9:55 am
    35. Prayers going up for your intention, Father.

    36. Praying…

      Comment by SophiaGrace — 23 November 2009 @ 10:11 am
    37. Will pray for you both, Father. I feel bad that we haven’t donated money lately, but we are trying to save up for an expensive adoption. We are trying to pray extra for you since we aren’t donating. We do appreciate all that you do and your blog. I will have the kids stop and say a pray for your situation right now. God bless.

      Comment by Liz F — 23 November 2009 @ 10:13 am
    38. My Angelus will be offered up for this intention.

    40. Done.

      Comment by Jason Keener — 23 November 2009 @ 10:51 am
    41. I have already said my daily Rosary; but one of my intentions is always ‘for all our priests and seminarians’.

      So I will send up an extra Ave for you and the ‘someone else’.

      Comment by irishgirl — 23 November 2009 @ 10:54 am

    45. I pray that our Lady will place you with her Son and shelter you in her mantle as she did the Christ Child. God’s grace be with you & His will be done.

      Comment by Rob Cartusciello — 23 November 2009 @ 12:19 pm
