Humbly asking for your prayers and for the intercession of St. Benedict in settling our huge debts as soon as possible. May we sell our property quickly, easily and profitably. Please pray that we be spared, protected, and shielded from any form of humiliation and harassment from our lenders. Please pray that they will not call me in the office and send emails to my superiors regarding my loans to humiliate me. Help us to pray for we are in a very difficult situation right now. Thank you. This I pray in the mighty name of Jesus thru Mother Mary, St. Benedict and all the angels and saints. Amen.
