Re: My son is probably going to prison
Lord, I ask that you will touch the hearts of 57's husband and son and have them acknowledge that You are the final authority in their lives and not them. Use this crisis to shepherd them into your flock and keep them safe, be they free or imprisoned, for either way, they are lost without You in their lives. Place your loving protection around 57 and have her feel your love and mercy in her life. Bring her a calm and peaceful heart when her world seems to be crumbling around her. Give her strength to face each morning with hope and conviction so that she will sleep fitfully each night in your care.
May any delays and postponements they experience work only in their favor, if that is your will, O Lord. I ask this through the intercession of Your Most Holy Mother, Mary.

Re: My son is probably going to prison
Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be
done, on earth as it is in heaven Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our
trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation
but deliver us from evil. Amen
Hail Mary full of grace the Lord is with thee
blessed art thou among women and
blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus
Holy Mary mother of God pray for us
sinners now and at the hour of our death
Amen.
Glory Be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning is now ever shall be world without end Amen

Re: My son is probably going to prison
Most holy apostle St. Jude Thaddeus, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, the name of the traitor who delivered your beloved Master into the hands of the enemies has caused you to be forgotten by many, but the Church honors and invokes you universally as the patron of hopeless cases and of things despaired of. Pray for 57classic and her family who are so needy; make use, I implore you, of that particular privilege accorded to you to bring visible and speedy help where help is almost despaired. Come to their assistance in this great need that they may receive the consolations and succor of heaven in all their necessities, tribulations and sufferings and that they may bless God with you and all the elect throughout eternity. I promise you, O blessed Jude, to be ever mindful of this great favor, and I will never cease to honor you as my special and powerful patron and to do all in my power to encourage devotion to you.
Amen.

Re: My son is probably going to prison
Lord, our God,
you graciously chose St. Dymphna
as patroness of those afflicted with mental
and nervous disorders.
She is thus an inspiration
and a symbol of charity
to the thousands who ask her intercession.
Please grant, Lord,
through the prayers of this pure youthful martyr,
relief and consolation to all suffering such trials,
and especially those for whom we pray.
(Here you mention those for whom you wish to pray.)
We beg You, Lord,
to hear the prayers of St. Dymphna on our behalf.
Grant all those for whom we pray
patience in their sufferings
and resignation to Your divine will.
Please fill them with hope,
and grant them the relief and cure they so much desire.
We ask this through Christ our Lord
Who suffered agony in the garden.
Amen.

Re: My son is probably going to prison
GOOD NEWS!!!
Yesterday was my son's preliminary hearing. He has been given a diversion, the state waived the fine, and the diversion fee. He has to pay restitution with bank interest. Period.
The lawyers were more interested in hearing about his job than anything else and the judge got a high priority call from our priest about the installation of the new PA system in the church.
Not only is our Lord listening to all our prayers, there are perks to living in the boondocks!
God Bless All Of You For Your Help!!!!
I am beginning a novena today for your intentions!
I love you all, thank you!

Re: My son is probably going to prison
May Almighty God hear your prayers. May there be peace in every hearts in your home and son's home. In Jesus Name.
May Mother Mary shield your heart with her mantle. It will not break. It is with the Lord.

Thank you! You know all the little prayer booklets from the various orders have numerous prayers of petitions but they don't often include a Thanksgiving prayer. My own version of thanksgiving is to pray it forward!
I honestly don't know how people who don't believe in God or that He cares can survive from day to day on their own.
