Hi Anonymous,
Someone else kindly wrote the message above and I couldn't agree more.

God is so good, and the love of God surrounds us---all of us---even those who are indifferent to Him. And His mercy and forgiveness endures forever for those who desire it...and so many souls turn to Him in the last moments and seek His love and forgiveness! And so I offer my poor prayers for you and your loved ones---especially those who are indifferent towards our loving God--that God may open their hearts and draw them ever closer to Himself.

Union in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary,
Glenn

Hi Anonymous,

Know that you and your family are in my prayers. Nothing is impossible for God. Like the Gospel reading today, the leper begged Jesus to heal him, and the LORD responded to him, saying: "I do will it. Be made clean!"

Ask the LORD for the grace of faith, and He will certainly give it to you. Who is the father who will not give good gifts to his children? Our God, the Father, won't disappoint you. All you need is ask Him in faith! You are His daughter, and He loves you and your family as He loves everyone else. May the peace of CHRIST be with you!

2011-01-13T01:24:43.812-05:00

Hi, Glenn.
I just happened on this site, as is probably the norm. My family is wounded. We are all in need of healing. My first husband died when my oldest children were 6 and 20 months. Three years later I married again and had two more children. My second husband, like my first, was not Catholic but he converted so that we would all be the same. Thank God, after 38 years, he is really embracing the Faith but while we were raising our children, we were not united and it is evident in our grown children. In spite of my efforts to have a united family, we are just six people going our separate ways with an occasional superficial connection. Three are married and we have five grandchildren with one on the way. The fourth will be married civilly before their baby is born in March and then in two church ceremonies - one in our state for our family and a second out of the country for his fiancee's family. I am not happy about the civil ceremony. Two go to church out of habit and two don't go. All grandchildren were Baptized but as they approach the age of receiving the other Sacraments, I don't know if that will happen for all of them. All have mental/emotional problems. I'm afraid one is bipolar. He is definitely obsessive/compulsive. My husband has Parkinson's Disease and he has paranoia, depression and anxiety. Our children are scattered in different states so it is hard to all get together to be a family. Two of the grandchildren have developmental issues and three have chronic asthma/allergy issues. One son has CP and will need surgery to implant a pacemaker-like device because he has nerve damage and can't feel when his bladder is full. The device will stimulate the nerves when the bladder is full. I am the oldest of a huge family - 16 children - 12 of us are living and most do not go to Church. I am viewed as a religious weirdo. I know things could be worse and I am thankful to God for all the good that He has done for me and my family. I pray for healing and conversion for all of us. Thank you and God bless you, Glenn.

Dear Glenn,

Thank you so much for your prompt response to my comment/request. Since my first visit to this site, I've found much comfort and have been blessed greatly from it. After I've participated in the novena to St. Gemma several times, I truly sensed the Lord's presence in my circumstances & have been encouraged to not give up. Your encouragement means a great deal to me as well. It's comforting to know that other believers are standing in faith for one another. May the Lord richly bless you...Carolyn

2010-10-11T21:56:14.194-04:00

Hi Carolyn,
It is nice to hear from you again, although I wish the circumstances were better...I am saddened to hear that your daughters and hunsband are struggling with drugs, alcohol and bulemia. Your cross is very heavy...

I offer my poor prayers for you and your family, that God may strengthen and guide you. And I pray that others here who read your comments might also join in prayer.

Finally, I would like to suggest that perhaps you send a prayer request also to Sr. Catherine of the Flower of Carmel Hermitage. She is a hermit Sister in PA who accepts prayer requests on her website, located here:

Sr. Catherine- Flower of Carmel Hermitage

May God bless and strengthen you and your loved ones.

2010-10-11T19:18:31.499-04:00

Dear Glenn,

I posted prayer requests on this site in Mar. & Apr. of this year concerning my daughter Melissa. She entered rehab for substance abuse, but unfortunately she's relapsed & states that she doesn't have any reason to try & live sober. My spouse Greg also struggles with alcohol & my older daughter Cara struggles with bulimia as well as drugs/alcohol. My faith is dwindling, and I don't want that. Pray for divine intervention that my broken family will be healed, delivered & set free. Thank you & God Bless, Carolyn.

I'd like to also ask your readers for prayers ...

I'd like to also ask your readers for prayers for a healing of my dad's cancer (his name is Paul); and for the grace of a successful pregancy for myself.

Glenn, you have already assured me of your prayers for us of which I am so grateful. Thank you.

Hi Anonymous,
Thank you for your message.

I will pray especially for your fiance that he may be freed from his chemical addition. -May God strengthen him!

Also, concerning the situation with your fiancees ex, without taking any sides I will pray for forgiveness and reconciliation between the both of you and her. Forgiveness is so important in the eyes of God!

May God bless you and may He draw all of you ever closer to Himself.

Hello,

Bless you for this site. Thank you for the prayers. Please pray for me and for my fiance, who is battling a chemical addiction. He finally has admitted himself for help. Please pray that we may have peace in our lives as his ex prevents him from a relationship with his son and interferes with our relationship, lying to the son and trying to come between my fiance and me. I pray for her and wish her no harm -- I've never met her, but she won't give me a chance, even after 2-1/2 years of being divorced from her ex (my fiance) -- a divorce SHE wanted. Thank you and God bless you.

Hi Carolyn,

Thank you for the update on your daughter Melissa. I pray for her continued rehab and deliverance from drugs, and also for her continued conversion--may God continue to draw her ever closer to Himself, and may our blessed Mother protect her and cover her under Her mantle.

To Glenn,

Thank you for your prayers for my daughter Melissa. She's doing well in rehab & has indeed called out to the Lord for help. Please continue to pray for divine protection/safety for her in the facility where she is at, as there treatment methods do not embrace our beliefs. Also, please pray that our family will not be misled or deceived in any way during her treatment process. Once again, thank you so much for your consideration and for this site, and God Bless You Always. Carolyn Y.

2010-04-11T11:07:15.321-04:00

Now, dear Gemma, that you are with your beloved Jesus, do not forget us who remain here below in this vale of tears, and obtain for us the graces and heavenly help that we need. Teach us how to sacrifice and suffer out of love for Jesus like you did. Guard and protect us from the evil one, and enlighten us against his evil temptations. Inspire and guide us throughout our earthly days, that we may always do God's will, and that we may always be pleasing to Jesus and Mary. Help us to love God with all of our hearts, and be with us always, especially in our last moments, and when we breath our last breath, present us to Jesus, and plead His mercy upon us, that we may be united with Jesus, Mary and you for all eternity. ~St Gemma, pray for us!

Hi Carolyn,
Thank you for your message.

I also have a daughter named Melissa, age 16.

I pray for your daughter Melissa, that through the intercession of St Gemma, God may help her with her battle with drug addiction. We ask this grace especially in honor of St Gemma's feastday...May Saint Gemma be her special advocate. -St Gemma, pray for us!

2010-04-10T15:53:01.341-04:00

My daughter Melissa will be entering a residential treatment center on Monday for drug addiction. I believe that the Novena to St. Gemma has influenced this process, because we've tried many times in the past to get help for her, to no avail. Please continue to pray that she will be safe and will get the help she needs. Mainly, that she will turn to the Lord.
