My brother is involved with drugs and the culture of death in general. His name is Micah. The life he is living is hurting my family very badly, especailly my mother. Please pray that the Lord bring him out of such a destructive lifestyle and bring him and the rest of my family into the Church. Thank you.

Prayers for Micah and all those afflicted by this scourge - both those actually using the stuff and their families that have to pick up the pieces and try to help .

and Yes Alex - it does include Terry and his family and friends smile

Prayers to Almighty God for Micah. May our Lord hear the prayers of his loved ones, and may He deliver him of the evils which have enticed him.
Through the prayers and intercessions of all those saints that his family holds dear, the blessed Virgin Mary and Mother of our God, St. Michael the Archangel and his own guardian angel.
Amen.

Everyman: You and your family must NOT give up in petitioning heaven constantly with your prayers...whether God's time will be in months or in years, He will not fail to deliver him if you continue. Also, if you can, maybe you can all fast together AND pray, the combination is extremely effective. Remember what our Lord said "this kind ( in other words: a strong demon) can ONLY be cured by prayer and fasting".

With love in Christ,
Alice

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....

Prayers for these wayward teens and young adults, and for their families to persevere in leading them back to a culture of life!

Some inner cities are being, or nearly, overwhelmed by this societal blight as it is fanned by peer pressure at an early age and fed by the unscrupulous!

Lord, have mercy!

Prayers for Micah, Terry and their families.

I am sure it is heartbreaking knowing a loved one is in peril and you are unable to reach or help them.

Through the intercession of the Holy Prophet Micah and St. Terence may Micah and Terry be freed from the lifestyle of the culture of death. May they be freed from their addictions and their temperments.

Thank you all for your continued prayers. I look forward for the day when my brother comes into the Church.
