St. Monica
To you I fly for aid and for instructions, St. Monica, wondrous exemplar of unswerving prayer for children. Into your loving arms I place my children James and Corey, that through your powerful intercession they may obtain the graces for genuine conversion to Christ Our Lord. To you I also humbly appeal, matron of matrons, to ask our Lord to grant me the same spirit of ceaseless prayer He granted to you. All this I ask through the same Christ Our Lord. Amen. ++
About Me
- Patty
- Indianapolis, IN, United States
- I am a Catholic convert who has been graced with a 37 year sacramental marriage to Kevin the most gentle, kind, wonderful man in the world; who shares my passion for our Faith and calling to pro-life and pro-family ministry. I have been blessed with 2 awesome though lapsed sons, 4 beautiful granddaughters and an awesome grandson. However imperfectly, I strive to know, love and serve God more each day and am committed to growth in holiness through ongoing conversion and renewal.
I Pray and Meditate at:
Proud to be catholic
I am a catholic convert and very grateful to be home

St. William Abbot of Eskille
.jpg)
St. William, Abbot Of Eskille and Superior of our home; prayer was your chief dependence and constant support. You were graced with the virtues of constancy, patience and meekness. Due to your unwavering trust in the Lord you were rewarded with the conversion of all you helped. Please intercede for us that we too will rely on prayer as our chief dependence and constant support and be granted the virtues of constancy, patience, meekness and unwavering trust in our Divine Savior and through your intercession obtain the conversion of our children, our grandchildren and all our family members. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen
