Pray with the sanctuary
For my 2-year-old cat, Vulcain. Due to complications, he is currently in the emergency veterinary clinic at Synervet in Le Havre, on an IV drip; his time is running out. I pray that you heal his kidneys and eradicate all inflammation now so that his kidneys may function again and he may regain his health. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen
Lord, we entrust Marjorie to you, who is going through a time of great inner suffering. You who know the weight of weary hearts, accompany her on this path of rest and healing that she is about to embark upon. Give her the strength to accept this help, the peace to face each day, and the certainty that she is not alone. Surround her with kind people who will listen to her and support her. And to us, her family, grant the patience and love necessary to accompany her without ever judging her. We entrust her to you with all our tenderness. Amen.
Pido la mediación de San Luis y Santa Celia para que Dios conceda a mi hijo Ignacio la gracia de formar una familía católica.
Lord, I entrust to you my heart and the love I have for Cyril. If our path is good and just, increase his love for me and keep me in his heart. Help us to understand each other, to respect each other, and to move forward with sincerity. I love him. Amen.
Dear Holy Family of Martin, I entrust to you: 1) our family; 2) our son Paul-Alexandre and his wife, Capucine, who were married on Saturday, July 18th; pray for them and intercede for them so that they may sanctify one another. We give thanks for their marriage and their beautiful witness of faith during their Mass; 3) that the Lord Jesus, King of France, may save France; 4) for all those bravely fighting the fires in the south of France: firefighters, members of the Civil Security, military personnel, local elected officials, mayors, volunteers, etc., and for the victims. Please ask the Lord to save them; 5) Leopoldo, the father of my colleague and friend Rosi, who has just been diagnosed with advanced lung cancer. Please ask the Lord to save him and to comfort his wife, children, and grandchildren. Amen.
