Please pray that my wife would understand why I am interested in the Eastern Catholic Churches. She's really non-Catholic, and actually not baptized though she goes to Mass with me (we still need to have our wedding revalidated in the Church).

She goes to mass with you, that is a good sign so take encouragement from that. I will pray for your intentions.

Lord, please bring this couple together in faith. Grant your grace and guidance in this situation. May they open their hearts anew to you and to one another. Give strength to this husband and just the right words. Continue to use him as head of this home and leader in their journey together. And in your time may this marriage be sacramentally blessed. Glory to you, O, Lord, who will not turn away these prayers.

In the Name of Jesus,

Mary Jo

May I ask, do you have children?

Lord in the abundance of your tender mercies bring wisdom to Millardio to share with his wife. Our Blessed Mother intercede for them before you Son that they may become one at the Holy Altar of God.

Thank you for your prayers! No, we don't have children yet. We've only been married for one year (well, almost; 1 year is this May 19).

Hopefully it will happen soon. But, when you have a child she will be Baptized with the child if not before. God is working in her heart. Just don't throw so much all at once that she is overwelmed. She will gain greater understanding as she goes through the preparation for Infant Baptism.

Lord Jesus put their lives, beliefs, and understandings in your propriety. Amen.

Thank you! Yes, God is working. Slowly, maybe, but He is working. It is after all His time, not ours, and His will.
