Susan

I humbly ask for prayers for my 29 year old son to receive an undeniable sign regarding God’s will BEFORE getting married in February 2027. And for his strength to be obedient to God’s most Holy and perfect will in God’s timing. And also for my son to seek wise counsel from priests and trusted men BEFORE getting married. For peace in my family of 2 and that we stay intact. All for the Glory of God. THANK YOU!
