Prayers to Our Lady and St. Rita for people to pray at home with each other
Hi,
I've realized that I really could benefit from someone coming to my house to pray with me. No one prays with me in my family at home, and it is a really stressful place to be, because of this. Could you pray to our Lady of Lourdes and St. Rita to ask the Holy Spirit to send friends to my house to pray with me. I am going to ask friends and other family members outside my house if when they come over to visit they can spend some time praying with me, whether a Rosary or Divine Mercy chaplet, or the Psalms or reading the Bible or watching EWTN programs, or listening to sacred music, etc. But I need to have some sort of spiritual activity with other people in my home, and I get absolutely none. Each day I can't stand being in the house, because everything is temporal matters. There is no eternal or spiritual concern in my relaitonships with my family, and my parents refuse to pray with me, and my friends from church pray with me and would like to come visit my house, and spend time with me here, but I want to ask them to pray with me as well, so we can bring the presence of God into the home, even if it is just me and my friends to bless my house and family.
Thank you for any prayers for this intention.
God be with you, with the saints and the angels of Heaven.
Joshua
