“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.”

Please pray for my sister and her husband, that he become Catholic and that she receive the graces including and above what is necessary to remain steadfast in her current state.
My niece, who is going to undergo brain surgery for her seizures, and for her parents, that they both return to the Sacraments.
Myself and my girlfriend, particularly in the area of vocation discernment.
For physical healing from a disability. Improvement in finances to move to an accessible apartment and to buy a wheelchair. For the G family. Fr. R and Fr. N and the C family. For EC (I don’t like her and praying for her is the only way to move on).
Two years ago at work, I sustained a concussion when a heavy object fell on my head. I am dealing with the consequences of that injury, and have been out of work since 2021. If anyone would pray for me, I would really appreciate it. I am also asking the Infant of Prague to help me with a financial need. I will certainly pray for any intentions here. Thank you in advance.
Please pray for me. I’m going through a serious struggle with believing that God actually cares about my heart, and it can feel really, really dark.
My wife became very ill several years ago, and when she returned home from a long hospital stay, had changed considerably and was afraid of me. This eventually led to our divorce, against my will, her starting an affair, moving several hours away, and my separation from our son. She is now trying to gain full custody of him, and until further notice I am prohibited from contacting him. I ask for prayers for the restoration of our marriage and family, for the healing and conversion of her heart and mind, and for the guidance of the Holy Ghost. I am going to court this Friday, so prayers now are urgently needed for a favorable outcome there so that I may at least see our son again. I ask prayers, also, for myself, as this situation is crushing me emotionally and spiritually.
Please pray for 7 month old Bryce who doctors discovered has excess fluid in his brain. Please pray for an accurate diagnosis and successful treatment.
My goddaughter had a miscarriage last year. She is pregnant again. Please pray the Lord will grant her a healthy pregnancy and a healthy and vibrant baby.
For the complete healing of Sydney, Keefer, and Scott.
For my brother, Nolan.
For my mom, Diane.
Thank you!
I’ll happily pray for all of your intentions. Mine aren’t so urgent, but please, if you don’t mind: that those of my children who’ve fallen away from the Faith might return.
Praying for you Fr. Z, for the readers of the blog, and those who post their prayer intentions.
Please pray for my rosary novena petitions and for P.O. who is under a lot of grief at the moment at the loss of his wife, D.O. Please pray for the repose of the soul of D.O., as well as for all the holy souls in Purgatory (especially those of bishops, priests, religious, and those souls most abandoned). We also pray for the least, the lonely, and the last, the despairing and the despondent, and for the conversion of sinners. Most Holy Family, please be merciful. Deo Gratias. Amen.
For the repose of the soul of my co-worker Ed, who passed away yesterday from brain cancer.
For serious issues with some of our kids (we happily have five kids), for serious financial issues that have struck and for which I can find no solution, and for my PhD (area of expertise is Mariology) to somehow be finished this year… that is, the dissertation… and to finally have the degree completed in the spring of 2023, because it’s becoming a very difficult thing to keep on with for various reasons. For any prayers, etc, I am most grateful!
For my wife, that her heart is opened to the Spirit, forgiveness, and Hope.
For myself, that I will overcome earthly desire through this Lenten fasting and prayer.
For our marriage, that it will be filled with the love of God and his Joy.
I will pray for all of you and your intentions. Please pray for:
–J.M. who will have surgery 4/11 to remove bladder, lymph nodes, and full hysterectomy
–Pentlow family, physical and spiritual healing
–Entry of David into full communion
–For Luke and all Down Syndrome children
–For all struggling priests and religious
–Perseverance in my twin vocations
–For all those who will die shortly and face judgment, especially those most in danger of damnation.
Please pray for my husband, D., to have successful surgery in about a week, and that he continues to beat cancer. Prayers for you, Father Z, and all of you. May the Archangel Raphael minister to all with his healing balm.
Please, pray for:
– the soul of A.M.M who died this past Saturday, and for her husband.
– A.V: for complete healing of her Mind and Body.
– for all those struggling with addictions.
– for me: I have two special intentions.
For my family’s salvation, especially those who have left the Faith.
for discernment regarding a potential future with a certain lady
I was rear-ended by an SUV while stopped in highway traffic and I suffered a concussion/mild TBI.
Six months later, my recovery has stalled and I suffer from Post-Concussion Syndrome. I’m always tired and can’t think clearly. My eyes don’t always work properly, making the reading & writing necessary for me to work difficult.
Please pray for my continued recovery.
