Prayer Request
Please pray for us. My family works so hard. My sister, husband and I share a home. We are truly blessed, but we have just hit some serious financial difficulties. My son is autistic, so that limits my ability to hold a full time job. I do work two jobs, and I try to praise God by teaching religion in my parish. My sister works three jobs, my husband drives over 90 miles a day to and from his job, then takes care of all home repairs and chores. We have my autistic nephew living with us. He is the son of another sister who passed away. He is an adult, but has difficulty holding a job because he is an addict. I believe in the power of prayer and that the Lord will see us through these difficult times. This has just been so hard for us.... I am one of five, and our oldest three siblings have gone home to God. Two in the past two years. And now this. I keep all my personal financial problems from my sister because she is so worried about the HOUSEHOLD finances. I don't want to add to her worry and stress, but I don't know how much more I can handle on my own. It's making me sick, and I can't afford health insurance because my husband and I make just over the level where I would qualify for aid. I feel so lost and scared. Please pray for comfort and for some relief for us.

Thank you all for your continued prayers. I prayed to St. Rita for intercession, and she answered! We have been able to pay some of the bills. However, I ask for your continued prayers. My husband's car broke down, and though it is a minor fix, it needs to be done soon. Please pray that he has the knowledge to fix it on his own. Also, my job is in jeopardy, through no fault of my own. I work for two step-brothers. One of them ran the business into the ground in 7 months, and the other one just walked away, leaving the first one totally autonomous and without anyone to hold him accountable. My job, and the jobs of all the others who work with me, are in jeopardy. As the senior employee, everyone is looking to me for answers, and I need to find a way to hold things together for them. I also ask you to pray for the brother who walked away. He did so because the stress was too much on his health, and on his marriage and family. Please pray that I can hold things together so that we can make it through the holidays, that the company makes enough money so that when they sell, the brother who walked away can do so without the current $60K debt hanging over his head. He has children, they could lose their home. My heart is broken for him.
