Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Please pray for many graces to enter into the situation for a young couple we know. They have come to a huge road bump in their marriage. There is differing addictions they both struggle with, much "baggage" from the past that burdens them, and no Faith being practiced to bring grace into their lives. They have one young child, lost their first, and are struggling through much right now. Please, please pray for many graces, that they will overcome their addictions, see the need for the Faith, and be able to have a grace-filled marriage and family life! Thank you!!

Oh, and they are in the middle of a day together to discuss all this, so urgent prayers would be so great!!

Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal, pray for us!

Our Lady, Undoer of Knots, pray for us!

Blessed Louis and Zelie' Martin, pray for us!




**********************************************

August 15-

Please, I beg you continue to pray for them. The wife is addicted to marijuana, and the husband is trying to convince her it needs to stop. The problem? There's a couple problems. Everyone close to her uses, as well and it's a strong way of life for them, so they all think *he's* crazy, and are supporting her saying there's nothing wrong. The second problem is that medical marijuana is legalized in their state and she became a licensed grower/distributor, etc. So, legally he has no place to go with this to get her help, her having a ton of this stuff is legal!!!

Their precious child (3yo) is in the middle of all this. Daddy took the little guy out of the house, thankfully, so he wouldn't have to continue witnessing all of what is happening, the arguments, or whatever is going to happen to get her help. It has not been good at all, the little guy is getting old enough to be aware of things. I'm so greateful that for now he is safe and in a positve situation where he can be cared for and given a positive focus, so he doesn't have to worry about what's going on.

Please pray for a *miracle*, that she will see the need for this to stop, and will have the grace and strength to kick it for good, to see all she has in her life to do this for, herself, her husband, their precious child. Please pray that there will be no legal things happening against the husband during all of this, he has been in trouble in his youth, but has tried hard to make a good life for his little family, and is trying so hard to get them both to a healthy place and past all their addictions(alcohol, marijuana, and p**nography). I'm worried, he doesn't need any leagl trouble to come on him. I'm concerned that if the wife or her family get upset that that may be their way of dealing with things, to call the police on him. Please pray that the little boy will be able to stay where he is for now until things get better. God's will be done! I know God knows best, and people have free will. This all breaks my heart, especially for the little guy, being in the midst of it, and the husband who is trying so hard to fight his own struggles, and lovingly do something to help his wife, and cares for their little boy so very much.

Thank you all so very much for your prayers!

St. Rita, please pray for us!

St. Jude, please pray for us!

St. Francis of Assisi, please pray for us!

St. Maximilian Kolbe, please pray for us!

Oour lady of the Miraculous Medal, please pray for us!
