Friends,

I feel like I am so often asking for your prayers lately and here I am again.

Dh currently works in construction with a friend. He didn't work at all in Dec. because of caring for his father before he died and there has been no work available this month. Obviously coupled with his father's death this is making my dh feels very stressed and the last few days especially he has been very down. He is looking for other work but not having any success and finances are getting very tight.

Unfortunately we also got some very bad financial news yesterday. It's complicated but it has to do with debt we incurred as the result of another family member who basically left us hanging. This happened several years ago and we thought it was resolved but apparently it is not and now we are facing being sued for this debt. This has added a tremendous burden to my dh's already heavy laden shoulders as he feels the weight of his responsibility to us his family.

I have given this to our Lady and trust in her care but as I was praying my rosary last night I felt that she wanted me to ask you all to pray for us as well - so here I am.

You are all such awesome prayer warriors and I thank you in advance for remembering us in this difficult time.

FYI today is my dh's feast day so I am asking St. Timothy's intercession in this matter as well.

I'm so glad you asked, Michele. I will include this with my prayers. Financial worries always hit me really hard so I know that burden.
Blessings,

I am so happy to pray for you. Don't worry.

[By the way, Michele, I think a while back, if I am remembering correctly, you recommended a book that was life-changing and comforting on the spititual life---one I had never heard of. (If that WAS you) do you remember the thread/book I'm thinking of?]

Praying for your family Michele. I know how heavy a burden financial problems can be, especially on our husbands.

Michele -

Praying for you and for Tim. Funny, but this morning when I noticed the Feast Day, I thought of you and your husband. I'm thinking that was a *nudge* to pray for you. So, asking for the intercession of Our Lady, St. Timothy, and St. Joseph.

Peace,
Nancy
