Please pray for my beloved. Today is his birthday (35- he says now he is officially middle-aged )
He is so far away from Our Lord right now, it breaks my heart. He works so hard for our family and loves us so much. In every way, he lays down his life for us every day.
Pray for our marriage please. Many things are stressing us right now and it seems to be attacking even at the level of our intimacy. These stresses include several physical/health factors in both of us.
Please forgive me if this is disjointed, I am particularly distressed right now and trying to be delicate in what I share.
Dear sisters, I know the power of your prayers and will keep you close to my heart throughout the day tomorrow. I know many of you have carried heavier crosses this Lent and Holy Week and I pray you experience the Risen Christ in your homes and families.

Maria,
I am praying. Tell Dave he can't be middle aged...I will be 35 in a little over two months and refuse to believe it!!!
I will be praying and offering your intentions at our Easter Vigil Mass at 7 pm tonight.
God bless!
Marybeth

This is a heavy cross, Maria. I know.
I promise to offer up my sufferings and prayers for you.
Are you on the
Happy is the Husband email list?
I can't remember. If not, please join us. If yes, consider sending a prayer request there. I can even send it annonymously for you.
Prayerfully yours,

Ladies, thank you! What a miracle of grace! Not that everything is perfect...We had a good talk Sunday morning and I figured out that what I thought was tension between us was really his feeling very depressed about turning 35. But through your prayers, a great deal of it lifted on Sunday. Everything in his body and spirit were different. We went to Mass as a family. I can't even tell you the joy I felt. It had to be the joy of Mary Magdalen in the garden that first Easter.
Please continue praying for him, he so needs to be back in the sacramental life of the Church. He know it too, just struggling with terrible feelings of unworthiness and feeling like a hypocrite.

Oh, that's great news, Maria!
I'm off to Mass and I'll pray that he returns to the Sacraments!
