“After this manner therefore pray... ‘Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in 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: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever.’” Matthew 6:9-13Welcome in! Our Monday Morning Prayer Request Blog is dedicated to pray for those dear to the heart of Jesus - the homeless, the poor, the abandoned, the crushed, and forgotten. Also, we pray for ourselves and all the "poor, suffering and homeless" in our lives.
Who do you know that is crushed, broken, lost, abandoned or hurting? Come, post as many prayer requests as you wish for yourself or others - first names or initials only. Your prayer requests will be printed and presented each day this week at one hour Adoration for the Lord‘s consideration, great mercy and compassion.
Pass it on! Let your family and friends know that even though we are often too busy for much prayer, take a minute here to post prayers; someone will daily pray for each and every request. Please return next Monday or any time this week and post new prayer requests.

I have a prayer request for a man I know, he just took his own life. Again, in our little town of Mesquet [a small fishing village in France], this old man was someone who dropped his fishing nets at the end of our road, where we put our fishing nets. He was a truly nice person. I asked him if he wanted to have a coffee as he was riding his bike up the street. He was definitely over 70 years old and still riding his bike, catching fish in his net and never wasting anything. If a seagull started to eat one side of the fish he would still take his fish home and he would eat the other side. I told my husband that's pretty gross and he said that's how we should be...don't waste.
This man, a man who I think only fished for his dinner. I stopped him on the road and told him "Carlos, I have so many apples in the trees, can I please give you some so they don't go to waste" and we threw in a couple of bottles of apple cider and apple juice. And Carlos said to me, " I'm paying you for this." Of course I told him he was doing a big favor in accepting the little we offered. This year I wanted to invite Carlos for Christmas dinner as it was at home with Cyril and the girls, but I never saw him before Christmas and didn't know where he lived to invite him.
I still don't know if he had family, or where he lived. What I do know is that I didn't try hard enough to find him, and now I can only pray for his soul and ask as many people as possible to pray for him. I regret not loving this person enough to have looked for him. Please pray for Carlos the fisherman.
Please pray for my health and healing...in mind, body and Spirit. Thank you and may God Bless you for your prayers.
I offer up complete neurological healing for Peter, For Joseph, self-confidence, For Marty, renewed physical health and for me, healing of the heart.
Could I please ask all the prayer warriors to offer up a prayer for Brentley. He is the young man who has been in a coma for 2 months, and his brothers and sisters have voted to pull the plug on his feeding tube. This has not been done yet, as it has to go before an ethics committee. However they say there will be no problem.
My daughter Chris has spoken to the family to have Brentley baptised. They do not have any specific religion, none have ever been to Church, nevertheless they are very adamant about having him baptised. She is at sixes and nines about what to do. There is a soul at stake here. PLEASE PLAY THAT SOMEHOW, SOME WAY Brentley can have the last anointing and Baptism. Thank you all for your prayers. I shall keep you posted as to developments. God bless you all. Donna
I am praying for a battered woman named Jennifer who was once more attacked by her husband. She is alive because her children got the neighbors to call 911. Lord open up Jennifer's mind and heart to you. Please fill her with resolve to stop tolerating the cycle of violence in degration in the hopes of forestalling future violent acts. Please make her husband accountable for his actions and convert his heart before the violence becomes lethal. And please watch over and protect Jennifer's 3 children who have been raised without controls or any sense of stability. And lastly watch over and protect Jennifers parents, brother and sister and their families. Everyone is so fearful that this man may come and attack them. I am terrified that something mortal could happen to a member of this family.
I'd like to prayer for physical healing and and an end to my addictions.
Our Lord please open my heart to you so that I will follow your will.
I'd like to pray for my sister Therese and her conversion through the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. I'd like to pray for health pregnancies for Jean and Katie. And lastly I pray that the divorce between Jean and Art gets resolved so that no more bitterness will occur.
Dear friends: We must pray for peace and for God to multiply love and tolerance in this world, so that this type of hatred exhibited [among religions] will cease to exist. Blessings, Pam
PS. Please pray for me and a ministry for children the Lord has given me to do for Him.
