Dear Friends,

A friend of mine is going through a horrible situation.

Well, the story is intricate and the family, by court order, must stay locally here in the Sacramento area.

Two years ago, the dad decided to walk away. This was a Catholic family with 8 children! He sees the children two weekends a month. Mom wanted to move out of state with the children to be near her family and be able to have affordable housing.

Long story short, the courts won’t allow the move because the children have anger issues with their dad.

Also, the dad wouldn’t pay his portion of the house payment before their house was sold and now Mom’s credit is shot and she is unable to acquire a rental even though she has the money.

Families, can you storm Heaven for them? They are currently staying with friends and searching, searching, searching. They were recently denied housing because of the credit problem – even though she has the money.

Yikes. Oh my gosh, Maria. I will pray.   If there is anything I can do, let me know. PM me and I'll give you my #.

Praying for the family's intentions, Maria. This is sad to hear. I am glad she has some friends.
