Prayer Request

In addition to prayers, fasting, and sacrifice for the defeat of the greatest assault on religious liberty since the 1870s, could you also pray for these intentions?

Pray for Alina and Simon to pass the interview for the post of Cadent Sergeant to be a policewomen and a policeman. Please pray for them to be the successful candidate among the others. Pray for them to be called to start the training. The interview is on the13/2/2012. Please Pray for them to receive a lucky job from Jesus as He say ASK and you will be given, Seek you will find and Open it will open for you. Amen

Father, hear our prayer through your Son Jesus Christ.

For the past 12 years I was a Music Director at a parish in Florida. My position was eliminated due to budget cuts at the end of June last year. I have been going through a bit of a financial crisis, but I have felt God working through these events. Recently, I had a long conversation with a good friend who encouraged me to explore the possibility of an independent ministry combining music and parish missions. He also encouraged me to keep writing on apolgetic topics as well. I’m very scared by this because I’m naturally a conservative person and I LIKE having a regular salary. Another reason that I’m scared is because as I pray on this topic I fear my friend is correct. I have a strong feeling that I’m being called to do this. So, I guess I would like to ask for prayers of discernment and prayers for the courage to follow where ever I’m being called.

Father, we ask that you would grant clear guidance, open doors, and show your son how to live out his charisms for the praise of your Name, the benefit of your people, and the good of the world. Guide and protect him, surround him with your holy angels, and grace his way as he tries to serve you. Mother Mary and this man’s guardian angel, pray for him. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
