We ask you to please pray for baby Francisco Xavier Castillo III, who was born at just 26 weeks and is currently fighting in the NICU. We pray that God continues to strengthen his tiny lungs, heart, brain, and every part of his body, blessing him with steady growth, healing, and protection. May the Lord guide the hands of his doctors and nurses and surround Xavier with His loving presence each day.

We also remember his twin brother, Michael Alexander Castillo, who was called home to the Lord. May God grant him eternal rest and surround his family with His peace, comfort, and hope as they grieve this tremendous loss while continuing Xavier’s NICU journey.

We pray to the Lord.

Please pray for the newly appointed Bishop of Derry in Ireland, Most Reverend Michael Router. This morning, Pope Leo XIV appointed him as our new bishop, taking over fully in September 2026 from Bishop Donal McKeown who now retires. Pray for Bishop Michael, as he takes over our diocese of 51 parishes which has a lot of challenges & problems ahead. May he be a true blessing for our diocese. Pray too for Bishop McKeown for a happy retirement after 12 years as our bishop. Thank You. John King. Saint Therese pray for Bishop Router.

St. Therese thank you for the business you sent my way yesterday. I am thankful for that because I was losing hope at the place I was working at so thanks for the confirmation to not quit. Pray for my daughter who is going camping this weekend that they have a good time and that everyone gets along. I pray for the air quality from the fires that it can dissipate soon so people don’t get breathing problems or sick from the smoke. I pray for the deceased souls of my family and extended family. I ask for the souls to pray for us here on earth. I pray that my son and my parents pray for their children down here on earth. No sicknesses no addictions and that the needs of the grandchildren can be met. Pray for my granddaughter to help her with her reading and scholastically. We need a miracle.

Dear St. Thérèse of the Child Jesus,
Until recently, I did not know you or the countless graces that God has bestowed through your powerful intercession. Yet I trust that I came to know you at the right and perfect time, according to God's loving providence.
Today, I humbly ask for your fervent intercession before our Lord. Please pray that God may lead me to the woman He has chosen for me—a faithful Catholic woman who will love Him above all things, be a devoted wife, and become a loving and caring mother to our future family.
If it is God's holy will, help me to recognize her when the time comes. As a sign of your intercession, I ask, if it pleases God, that you send me one of your roses, reminding me of His love, through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.
