For a very pressing Victory; for God, country and my brother! Through the intercessions of the Saints, Our Lady of Victories and Her blessed spouse St Joseph particularly, may God grant us Victory!
For my husband’s return to the sacraments and for my migraines, which are especially persistent this week when I have so much work to do. Thank you.
For a pressing personal special intention the details of which I ought not post.
Having just finished 15 months of treatment for breast cancer I breathed a sigh of relief. However, I have now learned that my breast implants have been recalled…for causing cancer! So I ask for prayers as I make a decision as to the best course of action and for a successful and uneventful surgery. Thank you all so much.
Fr. Z, you and all faithful priests are in my prayers daily. You and a list of others are prayed daily by name. I offer up each day for the sanctity of priests. I also pray daily for the conversion of those priests who are not faithful to their vows and sacrament and, if they will not convert, for their removal from ministry so that they do not cause scandal or confusion to their flock. God bless you, Fr. Z, for all the good that you do.
For my brother who is recovering slowly from his surgery this summer. That he’ll get better and return to the Church and its Sacraments.
I have serious surgery coming up on Monday, October 28th. But now my husband has come down with a cold. Please pray that I can stay healthy so that I can have my surgery on Oct. 28th. and please pray that my surgery will be successful. Thank you all so much!
I am on pilgrimage this week with my parish. Please pray for us. For me especially that I may be a light to others.
For my husband, having a right cranioplasty on Friday (bone plate replacement). Two surgeries to remove brain abscesses in June and July left brain and vision damage. For good surgical care and no complications and no fear.
For an urgent intention to sell an expensive house, without which is causing paralyzing financial anxiety.
And also for these intentions listed here.
For the conversion of my family, who don’t practice any faith, don’t understand why I converted and are convinced they know Catholicism better than I do.
For the baptism of my niece, who is coming up on 2 years old (see above).
For parishoners at my parish, which is large and charismatic, that the Holy Spirit might fan the flames of faith and strengthen in them a sense of reverence for God.
We pray to the lord.
Pray for the conversion of my brother, K****, who is in an active SSA relationship with a man named ___. November 2 is the day they plan on a “wedding” ceremony. Entire family, except me, my wife and kids , are planning on attending. Please pray for them all for the Lord to give them light and repent of these plans. Pray that my brother and Sam will repent and believe in the Gospel, live chaste and celibate lives, and be witnesses to those who need deliverance from that life.
Please friends, continue to pray that BeeBee is safe and that she comes home to us soon. We miss her so much, and we know that she misses us and is so confused. She is also not in a safe situation.
Pray that all that needs to be fixed is done so quickly.
This is my same intention as last time.
Thank you so much for your prayers; it is the only thing we’ve got. Let’s storm Heaven for this dear, precious little girl.
Please pray for me: I have three urgent petitions.
Thank you for praying, Father. Please pray for Sr. Karoline Marie T., RSM. She received her habit and started her novitiate up in Alma, MI. Also pray for the conversion of BA. EC, IP, LR and the conversion of my own heart.
Dear Andrea
Since I have studied the matter of the BIA ALCL, I want to reassure you that you do not need a removal, even if the implant has been recalled. The occurring of ALCL is very rare, one on several thousands. You just need to have periodic follow-ups and let your clinician determine if there’s any sign of risk. You can find very useful info on the FDA website. God bless you!
