I had some bad news tonight, and ask for the support of prayers.
Not only for me.
Thanks!

About this blog…
“This blog is like a fusion of the Baroque ‘salon’ with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West “saloon” with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven.” – Fr. Z

This REALLY helps! And it’s great coffee (and tea)
I use this when I travel both in these USA and abroad. Very useful. Fast enough for Zoom. I connect my DMR (ham radio) through it. If you use my link, they give me more data. A GREAT back up.
This blog has to earn its keep!
PLEASE subscribe via PayPal if it is useful. Zelle and Wise are better, but PayPal is convenient.
A monthly subscription donation means I have steady income I can plan on. I put you my list of benefactors for whom I pray and for whom I often say Holy Mass.
In view of the rapidly changing challenges I now face, I would like to add more $10/month subscribers. Will you please help?
For a one time donation...
To donate monthly I prefer Zelle because it doesn't extract fees. Use

PLEASE RESPOND. Pretty pleeeease?
Loading ...This is really useful when travelling… and also when you aren’t and you need backup internet NOW! I use this for my DMR “Zednet” hotspot when I’m mobile. It’s a ham radio thing.
If you travel internationally, this is a super useful gizmo for your mobile internet data. I use one. If you get one through my link, I get data rewards.

Vincenzo: Much appreciated. I always see you intentions on your blog
.
I’m so sorry to hear this. I’m certainly praying for you now.
Praying for you Fr. Z. The Lord be praised for you and may He ever strengthen your steps.
Praying for you father.
Praying for you as well, Father. We appreciate all that you do for us.
Not only for me. Actually, more for someone else.
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!)
Father, you are in my prayers.
I got bad news of someone else. This is not only about me.
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?
I will pray for you both. God bless you, Fr Z.
Praying for you and the “someone else.”
On it.
Sub tuum praesidium confugimus Sancta Dei Genetrix. Nostras deprecationes ne despicias in necessitatibus, sed a periculis cunctis libera nos semper Virgo gloriosa et benedicta. Amen.
Sub tuum praesidium confugimus Sancta Dei Genetrix.
Amen.
An Ave and a Memorare for your intentions Father. I will post this in my blog.
Prayers and very best wishes.
As always.
Prayers on the way, Father.
My prayers, always.
All of my sacrifices this month are offered up for the special prayer intentions of others: this includes you and your “other”. Di meliora.
Will be adding your intentions as I pray at Mass this morning!
I will be praying for you and the other person as well, Father.
Our Lady knows who you want prayers for Father, I ask for her help.
In prayer today.
Praying
My prayers are with you!
Prayers…
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.
Father you are a “spiritual Father” to many…..God hears our prayers for you and your friend…may you be given God’s Holy Wisdom—?in abundance! Thank You!
God Bless you!
A Memorare and my daily dedication for priests are for you and yours, good Father.
Done.
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.
Prayers going up for your intention, Father.
Praying…
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.
My Angelus will be offered up for this intention.
AMDG,
Prayers
Done.
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’.
Prayers here!
Praying.
Praying for your intentions, Fr. Z.
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.
Praying.
I will offer a litany to the Sacred Heart for your friend at night prayers tonight. Praying for you as well.
Praying for God’s will and your encouragement, Father.
Mother Mary is working on this intention, for both of you! She never lets us down, just as the Memorare says. God’s blessings!
