I theorize that Catholic parishes could host general education classes including information about how to deliver a baby in an emergency, how to use a gun safety switch, how to triage injured people, how to recycle electronics/lightbulbs/carpet/cloth/etc, and other topics. Also, I theorize that parishes could host prayer groups with discussion about the moral virtues displayed within the stories of saints' lives. The prayer group could begin with a prayer, read a handout with a short description of a different saint's life story weekly and discuss virtues displayed by the saint's actions, and end with a rosary

Please pray for myself my husband & our kids, Lord. Please protect us from all evil, traps, sickness, danger, bullies, and people who are tormenting my little family. Release my precious family from wicked neighbors that are bullying & distressing us everyday, Lord. Please Lord, protect us from all kinds of evil, hatred, curses & misfortunes. I pray for peace; peace between us and those who hate & are attacking us and our small kids daily. Lord, please that this evil will stop. Amen

Prayer request for my great aunt GuadaLupe Alvarez DeLeon. She wants to pass at home surrounded by family, but the system is trying to keep her in hospice permanently. Please pray for her peace, for her safe return home, and for wisdom for our family. In Jesus' name. Amen.
