I would like to ask your help in praying for my family, last year my little cousin was raped and murdered, this year the killer was sentenced, after several plea bargains. Needless to say he will be out in 16 years, just in time for her son's 20th birthday. I myself pray for them (incidentally myself) for the strength to endure, and the courage to speak out. Mostly I ask for you to pray for fortitude, my family is catholic by birth, however not all of us believe Catholicism is the only way to God. I have seen more of pain in the last year in some of the most compassionate members of my family, and a deep set rage to which no good may come. I realize I am new here, and I am grateful for any of you who read this.
God Bless.

Prayers for you and your family. Try to keep up the faith, God will not abandon you.
Let us proclaim the mystery of our faith: Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again.
Lord I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed.

Prayers sent your way, my heart goes out to you and your family, may you find your comfort in the Lord.
Once I was trapped in a perpetual night, without even a star to light the sky. Now I stand in the glory of the Son, and not even a faint shadow of darkness remains.
