Hi Moms~
I know this may be trivial in the grand scheme of things...but I cannot find our family's "St. Michael Chaplet" anywhere! This is not an ordinary chaplet that I purchased at the store...it was a gift from our spiritual director (who is a Michael)...who got it from a living saint on earth. I hesitate to say "who"--as you all would think I was CRAZY to not have kept this in a safer place. I am kicking myself for sure.
I kept looking at it on our prayer shelf saying, "I need to put that in a safer place." We put it up on a higher shelf, out of reach of little hands (we think)...
Either we "cleaned" and put it somewhere...put it somewhere really "safe"...the kiddos may have gotten to it (but I think this is highly unlikely)...or...God forbid, we accidentally threw it away...I pray we didn't...but in my absent-mindedness since the miscarriage, etc...I wouldn't rule that out.
Please pray to St. Anthony for us...this Chaplet is so special...and we have been missing it since doing our novena to St. Michael for his feast day.
God Bless.
Maggie

Understandable Maggie, I am still searching for two special rosaries. I've tried to offer it up thinking maybe St Anthony shared them with others in need.... praying still.

That is a hard one, adding my prayers for you and the search.

I'd be heartsick as well, Maggie!
Dear, St. Anthony and St. Michael, assist Maggie in finding this treasured sacramental!

Nope. Not found yet.
We finished our novena last evening, though...
I am waiting for St. Michael to produce a miracle today.
We have searched EVERYWHERE. My husband and I have concluded this: it was either thrown away by our 2 yo who likes to help mommy "clean" in this way, or...it is IN something...like a coat pocket, a drawer, a box...something...it has to be concealed somewhere. Now, this would be odd, as we have never really used the chaplet, all but a couple times...the St. Michael Chaplet is a very new devotion to us and not something we felt particularly called to until recently...
We have bad neighborhood situation that requires major intercession from St. Michael...please pray for us, for St. Michael's protection...
Hoping to find the Chaplet!!!

will pray Maggie I also lost my ST.Mchaplet last yr. I looked and looked . it was not sentimental such as yours but I do have my greatgrandmothers rosary and know I'd be devastated to loose it .
Loosing my chaplet did remind me of those who do not rosaries , chaplets , statues and live very simply with prayer .
Our Lord calmed my heart . He showed me I knew my ST.M chaplet inside and out . I to not need the chaplet in order to pray the prayer . It is a part of me I take it everywhere . pray while gardening etc.
I will pray to Our Lady as well you will feel at peace what ever the outcome is to be and bless you for praying the chaplet Maggie !
