Ladies, please would you pray for me and a couple of situations in which I feel under attack?

In particular, there is a newspaper article which is due to be published on Sunday which, although true, will greatly invade my privacy and cause me and my family real distress. I'm trying to get my name removed from the article and taking legal advice, but these things are slow and potentially costly, so a miracle would be most welcome!!

My prayer life has been revved up for Lent and I feel sure that these attacks are related...

Can you send a letter to the editor to be published in Sunday's paper?
God bless,

Praying Elizabeth. This must be so awful for you. Remember, that even folks like Padre Pio had all sorts of slanders and attacks and they were saints! So, I pray that you will make it through this time too and may God give you the grace to bear any reprocussions from the article etc.

Thank you so much for your prayers which have helped me very much.

The article did appear, with my name and photo. The newspaper made a mistake, though, and included a pic of my sister instead of me. She was furious, we complained, and at least that meant that they took the mistaken picture, and the one of me, off their website. Given that they're not used to backing down, that is a real victory.
