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.

I have told my sister Denise what wonderful prayer warriors you are. She begs your prayers for sweet Melissa...

Please pray for Melissa. She is 16 and a sweet, lovable girl. Her method of dealing with stress is frightening and destructive. She cuts her arms until they bleed readily, and only then feels relief. Recently she escalated her behavior by spreading the blood all over her high school bathroom wall. She is not suicidal, but counts the days she can go without cutting. Pray for her mother too, one of the most wonderful, giving woman living, and whose heart breaks when her daughter hurts herself. She protects and fights for kids all day long in her job, while her own daughter struggles with this demon.

THANK YOU!!

I'm praying for all of them. I know how horrible this can be. My dd23 had a close friend in high school who did this. It was devastating to her family.

They are in our prayers.

Prayer to St. Dymphna:

Lord God, Who has graciously chosen St. Dymphna to be the patroness of those afflicted with mental and nervous disorders, and has caused her to be an inspiration and a symbol of charity to the thousands who invoke her intercession, grant through the prayers of this pure, youthful martyr, relief and consolation to all who suffer from these disturbances, and especially to those for whom we now pray. (Here mention those for whom you wish to pray.) We beg You to accept and grant the prayers of St. Dymphna on our behalf. Grant to those we have particularly recommended patience in their sufferings and resignation to Your Divine Will. Fill them with hope and, if it is according to Your Divine Plan, bestow upon them the cure they so earnestly desire. Grant this through Christ Our Lord. Amen.
