Heavenly Father, with gratitude and trust, I place Amy and Gavin in Your loving care. Grant them clarity as they study, confidence in their exams, and wisdom in all their choices. Protect them, keep them healthy, and cover them with Your grace.
Lord, have mercy on us and guide our family in Jesus’ name.
St. Therese, please intercede for us. Watch over Amy and Gavin with your gentle care. Help Amy gain admission to medical school and become a good doctor, pleasing to God and others. Help Gavin become a good engineer, pleasing to God and others. Guide both children to the life partners God has prepared for them, to holy marriages, and to blessed families.
Amen

Thank you to everyone who are praying for me. I’m sorry if my prayers are full of complaints and things that I want to happen. I pray that my prayers are not selfish and wrong. I know that whatever God’s will is I have to accept it in my life no matter how hard and painful it is. Please forgive me Lord. I am so weak. Please do not allow negative thoughts to live in my head and heart. Stay with me Lord when I am scared. Please do not allow me to doubt all the goodness you have done and to doubt all the miracles you have done and doubt all the things you want for us is only good. Please help me. Please help pray for me that my mammogram results is normal. This is my first callback and it’s really scary for me. Please make everything ok. I will also have my blood works done because of my bp.

St Therese, please pick me a rose from your heavenly garden and send it to me with a message of love. Ask God the favor we implore and tell him I will love him forever more. Thank you for the roses you sent me today that I know were from you. Please keep sending them. Please please help Desmond heal fast, get this inflammation under control, reduce the swelling in his face, please let this bridge therapy work and no more progression and get him to the immunotherapy trial on time (the new time.) Please let his counts come up so he can get onto the trial. Please let it work and heal his body so he can tell the world about your miracles. Please heal him! We need a miracle.

I pray for my mom Margaret, that she stops smoking. Im worried she will get cancer. She doesn’t seem to care that it can happen. Thank you Lord, for putting her back into my life. I am grateful, because I know that she could be close to death. Please Lord Heal her, if she has black lung or any form of cancer. Help me appreciate all you have given. Because I know I could be completely alone, without her around. Help me be loving to her, she has always had my back. She has always loved me. I pray my sister also treats her better.

I ask for complete and full daily protection from heaven against all bad things thrown at me by evil ones. I have had a lot of problems in my life, especially during 2026. That is to end now. I ask you to send prayers to heaven, asking for constant, never ending daily protection in my life, and helping me live a daily life of happiness, peace, contentment and abundance. Thank you. John King in Derry City in Northern Ireland. Saint Therese of Lisieux help me always

Please St Therese, pray I no longer allow men to upset me. I get attached to a man and they end up liking someone else. I end up liking a certain type of male, and they think Im pretty, but they want something else. I know you must be telling me to have patience. I do not want to want males anymore, that do not want me. It is hurtful. The man I like who comes into my work, if he is dating someone, I pray I stop running into him. He is very sweet, and does not wear a ring, but with my luck, he has to be taken. I no longer am optimistic, and Im upset the fact that I have to worry about this.
