As freak accidents go, something happend last night that has really scared me.

At 3:00 a.m. our (electric) stove started spitting flames. The stove was off . It hadn't been used yesterday or recently. One of my cats alerted my husband to the flames. The house was full of smoke. The flames were coming from the broiler. He got the flames put out, and opened the windows to empty the smoke out.

An appliance repair man has come buy, but can't find an explantion. The stove is working fine now. He assures us we don't need to worry.

Pray for us, that it won't happen again, and that we will be protected from harm.

Thank you,
Mary

Prayers, prayers, and more prayers! How scary!

I know some people who give fire extinguishers as wedding presents. I hope you have at least one ABC extinguisher in your house.

Thank you Lord for the gift of the little critters you place in our lives, especially thank you from Mary's cat....
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....

�Dear Lord Jesus, please surround Mary and her family with a perimeter of Your Love and Protection throughout the day today and everyday a hundred yards in all directions. Lord Jesus, render any demons that are there, or should try to come, deaf, dumb, and blind. Strip them of all weapons, illusions, armor, power, and authority. Disable them from communicating or interacting in any way. Bind, sever, and separate them, sending them directly to the foot of Your Cross without manifestation or harm to be dealt with by you Jesus. May Your Precious Blood cover Mary and her family, the Holy Spirit fill Mary and her family, Mary's mantle of love and protection surround Mary and her family, St. Joseph guide Mary and her family the Holy Angels and Saints guard and protect Mary and her family from all unfortunate events. Protect Mary and her family from fire, theft, flood, storms, ailments, and accidents of every sort, distress, hardship, curse, and all untoward things. I ask all this in your Name Lord Jesus and I thank and praise you. I love you. Alleluia. Amen!�

Dear Mary,

May St. Michael the Archangel protect you, your family and your home from any more dangerous and evil incidents, demonic or otherwise.

Thank God that your angels enlightened your cat to alert you! The Lord truly works in mysterious ways! Thank God that you are well!

Please call a priest to bless your home soon.

With love in Christ our Lord,
Alice

Through the intercession of Sts. Michael, Jean Vianney, and Pio of Pietrelcina, I pray that your house be delivered from any evil spirits and influences.

My humble thanks to all of you for your wonderful prayers. I know God listens to your prayers.

Last night was uneventful, and the best sleep I've had all week.

Before bed, we brought the icon of St. Michael in the room, to make sure we were safe. My husband blessed the entire house by sprinkling holy water.

We propably should heed your advise and have a Priest bless the house.

Kitty's only consern this morning was: where's the canned cat food. smile

My heartfelt thanks to all of you,
Mary
