A very dear friend of mine is suffering this week.
Her husband was legally, but unjustly, fired this week.
They just had their 8th baby.......and live month to month paying their bills......BUT, getting them paid.
Would you please pray the union can get his job back.......or that God wil show him another way to go, before they lose their house?
This family is the SWEETEST family you could ever know.
Also, she was raised Catholic.............please pray she and her family could return to the faith. Only a couple of the children are baptized. This family so obviously LOVES God. But, they do not attend church anywhere.
Her Catholic parents give her so much grief for having so many children.....that is her Catholic example these days.........please pray our family can be a better example to hers......and maybe, if God uses us, to help them back to the church.
And, please pray I can be a good and useful friend to her family.
Thank you!

Praying for her Chari. I know how hard living from paycheck to paycheck with 8 little ones can be. She's blessed to have you for her friend.

Thank you everyone for your prayers.......there is a small hope that he may be given his job back tomorrow.......there is a meeting at NOON, PST.
Could you please offer an Angelus for this family at that time? Or, at least three Hail Mary's?
I am EVER in your debt!

Ok - if my time zone info is right - I subtract 2 hours from PST to get CST, so I'll be praying at noon your time - that's 10 am here in CST and 9 am for those of you in Eastern times.
I'm praying with the knowledge and comfort that Our Lord is outside of time (and timezones ).
Dear St. Joseph, intercede on behalf of this family.

I'm laughing at my inability to comprehend time zones after all these years - every time I *think* I have it figured out.... My dh will have a great chuckle over this one.
Regardless, I'm setting my clock for 2 today and praying for this family, Chari!
