Prayer needs for current situations around the world
We ask for unceasing prayer and invitation for you Sweet Jesus
to come in our hearts daily...Amen

I died for all...

People who hurt you...
people who hurt others...

All you have to do is want to give the Love, Jesus helps you the rest of the way...by pouring His love for others inside of you...

Live, Love, Forgive
Our own hearts must be converted to the love that God has so beautifully expressed in His Son, our Lord, Jesus.
If one looks steadily at their own heart, he or she can surely see the struggle within to become more as He is.
Pray fervently and ask God to help you be more loving towards those who are in your world.
It's through listening to and obeying the words of our Lord that we are transformed into His image here on earth.

St. Elizabeth of Hungary and St. Thomas the Apostle

Patron Saints for Homeless People and Home Builders and Construction workers. We ask their intercession on all the homes that are having to be built because of the fires. I include my daughter's family too...they are building their home too.

St Elizabeth is the patron saint for homeless people, and so much to do with people who are lost, poor, and all those who assist these people, also nurses and so much more...

St. Thomas is the patron saint for home builders and construction workers and the most important things against doubt.

Prayer to Saint Thomas the Apostle
O Glorious Saint Thomas, your grief for Jesus was such that it would not let you believe he had risen unless you actually saw him and touched his wounds. But your love for Jesus was equally great and it led you to give up your life for him. Pray for us that we may grieve for our sins which were the cause of Christ's sufferings. Help us to spend ourselves in his service and so earn the title of "blessed" which Jesus applied to those who would believe in him without seeing him. Amen.

Another Prayer to Saint Thomas the Apostle
Dear Saint Thomas, you were once slow in believing that Christ had gloriously risen; but later, because you had seen him, you exclaimed: "My Lord and my God!" According to an ancient story, you rendered most powerful assistance for constructing a church in a place where pagan priests opposed it. Please bless architects, builds and carpenters that through them the Lord may be honored. Amen.

Prayer to Saint Isidore the Farmer
Dear Isidore, you know how normal it is to cultivate the land for you were employed as a farm laborer most of your life.

To hear the voice of God
Dear Father,
at times so many of us wonder if
you really are there,
if you really care.

Yet faith tells me that you love me-
really love us - and that you will not
leave me to the forces of harm.
You have created me for yourself.
I am precious in your
eyes. Look now at my suffering heart.

Dear father, You have taught all of your saints
to hear your voice.
Teach me today how to be still and how
to listen. Teach me what your voice sounds like.

In the name of your Son, Jesus, stay
with me. Grant me - show me -
your healing signs and wonders of
your love. I need these to know you
sincerely care. Amen

And, by the infinite merit of his Most Sacred Heart and of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I beg of you the conversion of poor sinners, especially (name him/her/them). Amen.
