I know we all have crosses to carry. The last five years, my cross has grown steadily more heavy. I pray daily and offer my pain and anguish for the poor souls in purgatory. I know this cross will not leave me in this lifetime. I need your prayers to keep going, to carry my cross one day at a time with the grace of God. Perhaps I'm at a crossroad - please pray that I can stay on the straight path.

Please, I need your help.

My humble and unworthy prayers for you, Aunt B.
May the Lord carry you in whatever situation you are in...may He help you, console you, strengthen you, and answer your prayers...through the intercessions of all the saints you hold dear, my dear sister in Christ, and through the most powerful intercessions of our most Holy Mother of God.

With love in Christ our Lord,
Alice

Prayers that Aunt B is strengthened, that she may bear the cross that she carries.

May the Suffering Servant who knows your pain and the weakness of us all give you the strength to suffer in His Name.

May He in His Love grant you relief.

AMEN!

Our Father, Who art in heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Amen....
