“Given that Rorate Coeli and Shea are mad at Fr. Z, I think it proves Fr. Z knows what he is doing and he is right.”

"Let me be clear. Fr. Z is a shock jock, mostly. His readership is vast and touchy. They like to be provoked and react with speed and fury."

“For me the saddest thing about Father Z’s blog is how cruel it is.... It’s astonishing to me that a priest could traffic in such cruelty and hatred.”

Ostende nobis, misericordiam tuam.
Et salutaris tuum da nobis.
Ora pro nobis, sancta Dei Genitrix.
Ut digni efficiamur promissionibus Christi. Amen.
Father, I will be praying for both you and for Fr. Couture. God bless you today and always.
If you would not mind, please pray for me as well–for my family situation, which is problematic.
Will pray for Fr. Coutere, as well as for your intentions Father Z, later at mass and the rosary that follows. Also requesting prayers for my ailing dad. He’s been having liver problems and doctor told him yesterday that he’ll probably last up to six months at most.
Oops. Sorry I misspelled Fr. Couture’s name.
I am praying for you, Father John, and Father Couture, and for MaryAgnes and her family and for the dad of jbalza007. I ask for the intercession of St. Thérèse of Lisieux.
Sent up a Hail Mary for both Father Couture and you, Father Z, asking her for help in your sufferings.
Done, for you, Father, and all mentioned above.
Just said a prayer for you. Does that mean your trip to Kalamazoo isn’t going to happen? :(
Prayers from me. I’d like to request prayers for my 90 year old father. He had an upset stomach and now we can’t get him to eat.
Father, I just prayed for you and Father Coutere. Will also add (both) intentions when the kids and I say the Rosary this evening. God Bless.
Praying for you and your well being and intentions, Fr. Z. Please keep our bishop in your prayers, everyone, we just learned he has lung cancer.
Done, and will also remember you and your intentions during my Liturgy of the Hours this afternoon.
Prayers said, Father. Thank you for asking.
Have prayed and will continue to pray for you, Father Z. and for Fr. Couture. Will remember everyone’s intentions as well.
Fr.Z, Praying for you and Fr. Couture… will continue praying for your intentions. Wishing you both a quick recovery!
Praying for you and Father Couture. If any of you are willing please add my wife and me to your prayers. I am in hospital awaiting open heart surgery. My wife suffers from rheumatoid athritis and is at home taking care of our two young boys. On top of that she has just miscarried. Please prayer for us to get through all of this.
Saying prayers, Father.
Prayers for you and Father Couture and prayers for you ejcmartin…place your trust in the Immaculate Heart of Mary, she never fails us.
Prayers ascending for you both.
Prayers ascending.
Prayers!
May the Sacred Heart of Jesus surround both of you with great mercy and love.
Will definitely pray for you and the SSPX priest.
Prayers sent up for all who have asked. Thank you, Fr. Z.
Fr.Z.
Will add you to my prayer list….God Bless YOU, and Fr. Couture
Prayers being said for all of the above intentions, especially your family, ejcmartin. Wow. God bless you all. (p.s. whenever I read posts that either ask for prayers, or I see that people need prayers I do pray for those intentions. I just don’t want to post over and over that I’m praying for each situation and distract from the original post. Please be assured of our family’s prayers though. I wonder how many prayers happen as a result of this blog. I love being Catholic. I love the whole Communion of Saints thing. How blessed we are!)
Praying
It’s Friday, and it good to offer some penance and one’s sufferings for our intentions, including those of reparation for sins.
Especially sins against the Lord in the Blessed Sacrament.
I said a prayer for both for the lifting of the pains that inflict the mind and body with suffering. Allow the prayers of some simple lay folk to lift you up as high as incense can travel. Until, just like incense, whatever is weighing you down, dissapates.
Praying.
Will offer up my Chaplet of Divine Mercy for these intentions.
AMDG!
Praying.
Praying.
Praying for you now and everyday. Extra prayers for your special intention.
Prayers for Fr Couture.
Our lady of Fatima, pray for you.
Prayers for all.
Praying for you, Father.
“I wonder how many prayers happen as a result of this blog. I love being Catholic. I love the whole Communion of Saints thing.”
Ditto!
I will remember you and Father Couture when I pray the Rosary today.
Prayers ascending!
Prayers, Father dear, for you and for Fr. Couture. (Actually, I pray for you and other priest friends each day, but will add in prayers for your healing until you are feeling well again).
of course
Prayers aloft for you and for Fr. Couture.
Adding my prayers for you and Father Couture, for restored strength and good health.
