Saints' Discussion Forums

It's a difficult situation, which I do not want to write about online say that it has to do with marriage, but it is a very important one that has great ramifications for her soul and more.

So I'd like to ask everyone willing to pray strongly that my mother makes a decision that is right in the future, and does not commit to a relationship that is impossible because of a previous marriage but ends one instead. Let there be an end to it! I know this is going to take a good deal of spiritual help to achieve. Angels and saints please help us thoroughly!

My mother is a lasped Catholic.. Please pray too she gives up her self-willed streak and returns to the Faith for her soul's salvation and our family!

Ave Maria, in this month of mothers, please take care my mother and all!

           Hail, Holy Queen

            Hail, holy Queen, Mother of Mercy!
            Our life, our sweetness, and our hope!
            To thee do we cry, poor banished
            children of Eve, to thee do we send
            up our sighs, mourning and weeping
               in this valley, of tears.
            Turn, then, most gracious advocate,
            thine eyes of mercy toward us; and
            after this our exile show unto us the
            blessed fruit of thy womb Jesus;
            O clement, O loving, O sweet virgin Mary.

            Pray for us, O holy Mother of God

            That we may be made worthy of the
            promises of Christ.

Memorare

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.

O Mary, Mother of God, help our mothers!

This is crucial. I will start a novena to St. Philomena tomorrow for her. Lets pray and hope for the best.

One night, Mother Mary Louisa had a vision in which she saw Our Lady and St. Philomena. The "dear little saint" confided her to the protection of the Mother of God saying: "Stand firm beneath the protection of Mary." Again, she saw Saint  Philomena laying her crown before Mary's throne saying: "Lady of Heaven, I have come to ask grace." Whereupon she solicited more than thirty graces for different persons. Our Lady replied: "To Philomena nothing is refused. "St. Gabriel wrote down the concessions with a golden pen. Then the saint turned to Mother Mary Louisa and asked: "Have you seen how this was done? I asked the graces from Mary, and through Mary they were granted to me."

This is beautiful.

Thank you very much for the prayers. Yes, it's crucial!!! I will do the novena too!

I have a Chaplet of St. Philomena. I will pray it for your Mum :littleprayer:

I will enlist the help of St Columba who I reckon has become my spiriyual guide of late.
I will start a novena tonight for this intention.

We will need to remember also that His time is not our time and that He loves to forgive a repentant sinner no matter when during their later life it happens.

Mary , my Mother Hear our prayer! St. Philomena, pray for us!

Thank you very much!  :D

You and your daughter especially are in my prayers too!

Yes, please do remember her!  Thank you!

Family, friends, I would deeply appreciate you keeping this intention in your prayers this weekend and in the coming days especially. There is some progress, and the prayers to see it become realized and not go off the tracks are needed!

St. Philomena, pray for our families and our mothers! And have mercy on my mother and I.

Dear Shin every good work that you are doing for the Lord will also flow throgh your family and your dear mother will be a saint too in Gods time.
I will pray too for this intention.
If I've learnt anything in the past few weeks it's to have total confidence in Gods willingness to answer our prayers, especially when we offer them through our Blessed Mother and the saints.

St Philomena ora pro nobis.

Thank you Martin!

You're giving me confidence and at the right time! Well, I've had a good time working on the website this afternoon and there's more to do, but a little break and then I'll be back.

This family stuff is the hardest! But I feel like the prayers here are started to break the dam!

Thank you!

Hail Mary, full of Grace,
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.

Ave Maria, Gratia plena,
Domininus  tecum.
Benedicta tu in mulieribus,
et benedictus Fructus ventris
tui, Iesus.
Sancta Maria, Mater Dei,
ora pro nobis peccatoribus,
nunc et in hora mortis nostrae.
Amen.

I prayed the Saturday prayer to Our Lady of Sorrows for your mother and my friend's intentions and will continue to remember this intention during daily Rosary. Stay confident.  O:)

I will I feel there's real hope here! There're bad signs too, but if we keep praying.. the dam will break!!!

Thank you so very very much for the prayers! I am grateful!
