May I Pray for You?

Send your intentions with me on my journey.

Today is the big day! I leave home and begin my travels to Rome. I wish each and every one of you could come along with me to be present for Pope John Paul II’s Beatification, for the Mass of Thanksgiving on Monday, and for the big Blogger meeting at the Vatican. I have the great blessing to be making this trip, but I am sincerely hoping to represent all of the Catholic mom bloggers out there who are working to share their faith via the new media technologies.

I would love to bring a part of each of you along with me, so please use the comment space below to share your prayer intentions (or list “special intention” for confidential prayers). I will print these and carry them with, and I promise to find a special time during my travels to pray for each member of our Faith & Family community.

If you could also remember me, my husband and sons at home, and my fellow international bloggers in your prayers that would be wonderful. Many people are traveling from various corners of the world to come together for this special moment in time. We pray for safe travels, for all of the logistics of the liturgies, and for a fruitful time together.
