If you would like prayers for yourself or your loved ones, please send us your prayer request. We have a group of intercessors, drawn from Catholic Charismatic communities and prayer groups in England and beyond, who will bring your needs before the Lord in prayer. If you prefer to be prayed with over the 'phone, there are several ministries that have volunteers praying in front of the Blessed sacrament available by 'phone. Click here for details. While you visit this prayerline page, please pause for a while to say a prayer for all those who are suffering or hurting at this moment. |

"Come to me all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:28, NIV)
|
The Lord always hears our prayers - listen to His promises:
"Truly, truly, I say to you, if you ask anything of the Father, he will give it to you in My Name. Hitherto you have asked nothing in My name; ask and you will receive, that your joy may be full" (John 16:23)
Because he cleaves to me in love,
I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name.
When he calls to me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble,
I will rescue him and honour him. With long life I will satisfy him,
and show him my salvation.
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:28)
"He heals the broken hearted, and binds up their wounds" (Psalm 147:3)
"Because you have made the Lord your refuge, the Most High your habitation' no evil shall befall you, no scourge come near your tent. For He will give His angels charge of you to guard you in all your ways. On their hands they will bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone" (Psalm 91:9-12)
"He will feed His flock like a shepherd, He will gather the lambs in His arms, He will carry them in His bosom, and gently lead those who are with young" (Isaiah 40:11)
"Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine. When you pass through the waters I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you. Because you are precious in my eyes, and honoured, and I love you . . . Fear not, for I am with you." (Isaiah 43:1,2,5)
Trust in the LORD, and do good;
so you will dwell in the land, and enjoy security. Take delight in
the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your
way to the LORD; trust in him, and he will act.
Be merciful
to me, O God, be merciful to me, For in Thee may soul takes refuge;
in the shadow of Thy wings I will take refuge, til the storms of destruction
pass by,

Praise the Lord for all the prayers He is answering! Here is a sample of the feedback we have received: ... made a remarkable recovery and was
discharged home from hospital this morning! Considering he was knocked
unconscious when he fell and had stopped breathing and turned blue,
this is nothing short of a miracle! The tumour in his oesophageus is thinning and shrinking and the liver spots are less dense. It is ALL CLEAR; they could not find any cancer on his liver !!! So he is completely free of cancer on his colon and on his liver. PRAISE be to GOD !!! This is truly a miracle. I must admit that when I had a phone call the very next morning, after sending you the prayer request by email, I was amazed! The call was from someone I met once a year ago, asked how I was, and was able to support me, pray for and with me, and provide spiritual support, which is what I needed! kept asking: "how come you called, why did you call me today? ". We pray, and ask for prayer, but cannot believe it when the reply actually comes knocking on our door!! A little while I wrote asking for prayer for the incredible anxiety that is hindering my life.It affects my family and all I do.Since requesting prayer, I feel so much more at peace, a real presence of the person of the Holy Spirit.I look forward to attending Mass whenever I can (my wife says that I seem to live in church at the moment !).I want to thank all at prayerline for your prayers, and of course our wonderful God for answering them.I almost cant believe the sense of contentment I feel at times-Thankyou Lord Jesus I requested prayer last week for a job and wanted to let y'all know that I start a temporary position tomorrow!!! Thank you soo much for your prayers I know they made all the difference in the world. A few weeks ago I contacted you to ask for prayer for my eyes. I couldn't read or use the computer much. I can read quite well now, and I'm happy to be able to read my Bible and the Liturgy of the Hours. Praise be to God. Thank you so much for all your prayers! ... He has recovered very quickly from dysentery and is going back to class ... tomorrow. I know it is through prayer he has recovered so quickly! In the name of Jesus, Our Savior, THANK YOU for your prayers. My contract was renewed. I had requested prayers for my father's healing and thank you and thank God my father is healed. Thanks be to God for His faithful love and for you who stood in the gap ... The situation has yielded to your prayers. Indeed I cannot just tell in these words what has happened. On Tuesday night I found peace to forgive ... All hurting and anger emotions are no longer there I can't just find them (Isa.41:12) ... My prayer life has revived, joy and peace have returned (miraculously). Thank you so much for your generosity because prayer is all I need at that time. Just want to thank everyone who prayed for me... Jesus Our Savior blessed my heart with His Peace. My Wife and I would like to thank you for praying for us regarding our home being threatened with repossession. We asked for prayer that God would act on our behalf and that the court would allow us to remain in our home. Following the encouraging emails from people who prayed for us I would like to tell you that God indeed acted on our behalf and the court found in our favour. I'm writing to let you know that things are better. Not fantastic or perfect, but much better than they were a week ago ... And thank you for lifting me out of despair. God is good her eczema is much much better. Good news ... he said I can come off insulin as it was clear that my pancreas was producing insulin.

I know that in your prayerful hands, T will receive the full power of God's grace. It sounds strange, but it is as if I am somehow experiencing the power of your prayers for T. This secondary blessing is unexpected and quite overwhelming. When they opened her up there was no sign of any cancer! PRAISE THE LORD!!! PRAISE GOD!!!!!!!. I just feel like praising Him so much. After you see the difference in a person who had such traumatic event and see the difference once prayer warriors unite....it's amazing, it's awesome ...

They are small and not as strong but they weren't there 2 weeks ago. Praised be Jesus! Thank you so much for your prayers! Praise the Lord! I recieved all I asked for immediatly!

Please give praise and thanks to almighty God for the answer to prayer. I have been praying and crying out to god day and night for help with increasing debt the very day I send a request to your group he put an answer to the problem in my head and today Iam debt free. Praise God dear mighty prayer warriors. My daughter has told me so much about and how you encourage her through prayer and the messages on your websites. The Lord has been faithful and my health has tremendously improved following prayer requests submitted by my daughter. Thankyou for your prayers. I especially noticed that the malaria attacks have really reduced I am writing to you in awe and gratitude although I have no doubt in the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, I am still moved in the wonderment of His goodness and blessings ! I wish to thank every one of you whom helped me in prayer for my daughters safe return to us!! She has been diagnosed as by-polar and is in treatment. We picked her up 75 miles from home homeless, and ragged but she was unharmed but for her soul. In March of this year, I sent a request for prayer for my father, who was very seriously ill. I am happy to report that he has made a miraculous recovery. He had four surgeries because of a rare infection and heart attack...and he survived all of these difficult procedures. Thank you for your prayers. Praise the Lord, my prayer request for a suitable employment in my home town has been miraculously answered .... I am really humbled at the merciful Lord's kindness and goodness and I thanked Him endlessly and wept for joy when I returned home after the interview Thank you very much for your prayers. God has blessed me with a job, in a special way, like a miracle. He knows the plan He has for us. He is always faithful & loving. This a testimony of the power of prayer, of God's everlasting love...although we do not deserve it. Thank you for all your prayers. My Aunt
said that an angel came to the end of her bed! My Mother is recovering fast. I feel great, I was almost in tears... How great is God? My mother is recovering beautifully both physically and mentally, now. About the time I was ready to give up, she made a miracle turnaround in her mental acuity. I am delighted to report that (she) has
pulled through and is recovering miraculously. She still has meningitis,
pleuresy and pneumonia but today she was able to get up and walk by
herself some distance. The doctors have said she will probably be home
by Friday!! Our little (baby) is healed in Jesus name. He is home and doing great! All we are praying for now is complete healing in his 'bottle feeding'. All else...we are amazed. The Lord blessed me with a job. Thank you immensely for ministering to me in an amazing way. Thank you very much for to pray for us, a sterile couple (10 years to looking for a son), in November 2005. Our Lord made the Miracle: the medical treatment was successful, and today we are in 17 week of pregnancy. God listen to generous and good people like you I want to say thanks to all who have prayed for my father health, his painful headache has gone now and he can do his activities again now. Thank you!!! They made it to Mass...not
without a battle, but it happened. I would like to thank you for your kind prayers we have this week found out Im pregnant with our much longed for first child and we are over the moon I just want to thank you for including mum in your prayers, she seems a lot happier and was able to go to Mass for the first time in over a month. I'm sure your prayers helped. I asked for prayers for daughter to have a baby and a miracle happened and she told us on Friday she is having a baby...we are so happy...thank you for your prayers....and thank you Lord for being so kind to us again... My marriage has been restored and my husband and I are stronger and more in love than ever. I prayed and prayed and NEVER gave up. All the glory be to God!!! Three members of one family were struck within the time period of three years. Two had cancer and the third had a very rare, and most often, incurable disease. We asked for prayers from your prayer circle and joined with you, with friends, relatives, and the Sisters of Poor Clare. Your prayers were asked in turn for each, and then collectively, for all three as each was diagnosed. Each was treated and ALL THREE have returned to health and resumed their lives.We thank you and will always remember your support. We will never stop telling this because it is heavy duty proof of the power of prayer. Thank you so much for your prayers for me and my dear sons.....God heard us and He was so Good to me. I am sooooooo grateful for your prayerful intercession for us. I asked for prayers all this past year for the reconciliation of my marriage. T and I have reconciled, we are going to mass, and we are both getting help for our anxiety. Praise God!! Thank you for your prayers I just wanted you to know that things in my life are so much better now. And I am so grateful to all of you for the extra prayers that I am sure made a difference The bladder cancer is GONE thanks to your prayers. It is good to know that there is someone out there who cares that much. Perhaps the main answer to this prayer has been in my own ability to deal with all of this. I feel I can leave in the Lord's hands. I feel so much calmer. He woke up on Wednesday morning and all the sickness and anxiety had disappeared The mother of my children was told by a doctor that the cancer had reached her heart. I stayed with her the entire following day for her cat scan examinations. They all came back clean, and the doctor said there was no evidence of cancer in her heart. Thank you for being there in this very troubled time and praying for a miracle. God, in his infinite mercy, has graciously answered our prayers. SHES CLEAR. L's cancer has gone and the tiny bit they left after her op has calcified. So thank you, thank you, thank you. May God bless you all for all the wonderful faithful prayers Thanks to your prayers, my wife and I have reconciled and all is well in our family!! Last time I wrote, things were very bleak. Things are now starting to look a little better. I know that your prayers have help my family tremendously. Thank you so much for your support and your prayers Thank you so much for your prayers. I have got a wonderful job and also my visa. GUESS WHAT! GOD ANSWERED YOUR PRAYERS, EVERYONES PRAYERS! THE BUMP IN MY LEG VANISHED THE NIGHT (HE) SENT THE E-MAIL! I wanted to tell you so bad! I didn't know my wife had sent this. I was just checking my outbox and I came across it tonight. I want to thank anyone who answered her call because we have a beautiful daughter .... I just worked out she would have been conceived almost the same night my wife sent this request. Dear prayerline thank you for your prayers. I return to full time work April 21, 2004 God bless your organization Thank you for helping me with the prayer request, after I had sent it I felt a sense of peace that was very strong. Thank you for listening. Thank you for the prayers, my prayers were answered now and I am on my 7th month of pregnancy The Doctors tell us she is a walking miracle. We tell everyone she has an army praying for her. He has taken to eating heartily, has put weight on and is looking such a lovely little boy now that sometimes it is hard to believe that I did not expect to be able to hold him ... thank you for being there, and for showing me the power of prayer. From the time I requested prayer yesterday, I felt a real sense of calm and felt lifted up. I certainly slept better than I thought I would! I praise and thank God for his wonderous ways and his healing power. Your prayers certainly seem to have made an improvement in her eye condition and for which I am so grateful The doctors were amazed again because the lab work revealed that his cancer was retreating. They had no medical explanation as to why this would occur BEFORE chemotherapy began. His lab work continues to dumbfound his oncologist because of the continued improvements in his blood tests. The Professor could not understand what had cleared so much of his lung up. ... here is God's healing hand at work and the MIRACLE is starting to take place and the promised made to me by God ... is being fulfilled. What was awesome was the fact that the bottom lobe had returned and this made the Professor really wonder and cannot pinpoint what it is, but I know. ... He is getting better and better everyday as God promised. I dont know what I would have done without knowing that someone cared enough to pray for us all. I want you to know that God has truly answered my prayers. My life is so much better. The Specialist in charge says the cancer has more or less gone from her bones and the lump has shrunk much more than they thought. He's amazed at how well she looks. Normally apparently a child as bad as she was is hospitalized and very poorly not running around grinning as she is and sick so they don't eat ... She is a walking miracle My mother was offered three jobs the day after I sent my prayer request. She is now working in a very good job and most importantly is feeling happy about having such a wonderful job Your prayers have restored hope for all of us, I cant express how grateful we are for your help He is in complete remission. On Thursday his consultant told him that his CT Scan showed no signs of the disease. It has been eradicated, Praise the Lord. My brother is truly the miracle in our family. Thanks to your prayer chain (and so many others), he returned to home with out patient therapy 2 months after his injury. He sustained a 90% brain trauma. His surgeon said he was his miracle ... his car was totally crushed from the impact. He should have died a number of times and he didn't. He should have forgotten names and even be physically disabled ( but for some double vision in his right eye) he is not. He is home taking care of his family and house. I have not had a drink now for three weeks. I could not have done this with out your prayers. Yesterday's new MRI showed that the tumor has slightly decreased in size and the phenomenon of hydrocephalus has disappeared! Praise God! The doctors couldn't believe their eyes, and we couldn't stop crying for joy, thanking God for His miraculous intervention. About 8 months ago I asked that you pray for me and my husband. We have been trying to conceive for 3 years and were unsuccessful. In fact, were told due to my age we would not be able to conceive on our own. I am thrilled to tell you that I am 5 months pregnant with our first child. I truly believe that the many people who prayed for us were instrumental in the conception of this little miracle I went to my first healing mass just over a month ago, not really sure why I was drawn there. For six months I had suffered terribly with irritable bowel syndrome ... I am healed, still no symptons have returned and I have put my body to the test with what I've been eating! I have no doubt whatsoever that the Lord healed me that night and that the symptons will never return!!!! Awesome!!!! I do believe that the power of prayer can work miracles! All glory and thanks to the Lord Our God. I have, through the Blessings of God and your wonderful prayers found a place to stay. I am out of the horrible place I was ... I am convinced that my finding this way out of where I was is COMPLETELY the result of your prayerfull support The prayers have been answered. God brought my son in law home, and the doctors misdiagnosed the cancer. Praise be to God. Thank you Thank you for your prayers......It's helping.
I have faith and believe that the It helps me in a great way to know someone is praying with me. May God bless all who pray in this way. Hope is a gift you have given me I asked for prayers for healing for myself for the stress disorders brought about by a serious road accident ... I really believe that a healing has taken place, and is continuing day by day I felt a great peace after I had sent the e-mail and also an immediate release from the pain in my back Lots of little miracles have already been happening in his body! Only a few weeks ago, he was medically documented as being severely brain damaged. Now the new medical tests show no brain damage at all! The brain surgeon was amazed at how normal his brain now looks. (He had surgery on his brain about 3 weeks ago.) God answered your prayers because the
doctors were baffled when he began to get better so fast. His thyroid
and pancreas levels are suddenly back to normal. I wrote to you many months back to ask for prayers for my husband. He had been diagnosed with a highly malignant brain tumor. Glioblastoma patients are usually told they have 6 to 10 months to live with aggressive treatment ...The tumour was surgically removed ... He has completed 16 rounds of chemotherapy ... Yesterday he had an MRI. It showed no residual tumor, no enhancement, only a hole where the tumor used to be ... I feel that we are experiencing a miracle. Within hours of having posted my prayer request last Sunday, I can honestly say that the anxiety lifted off me !!!! It just seemed to disappear, amazing. I felt so different - calm and normal !!!!!! My husband just accepted the job that we were praying for. Prayers are answered, and we cannot thank you enough for your love and support. She has made a miraculous recovery and left hospital a day after you prayed. She had been in hospital for a month with no change and then suddenly she recovered I asked for prayers for myself about one month ago and they were answered. I found such peace After several months of radiation and chemotherapy my brother was told by his doctors that he has had remarkable progress unlike any they have seen with this type of cancer. The tumor has shrunk completely. I truly believe in my heart that this was because your ministry has joined us in our prayers to the Lord and I thank God for all that he has done to help my brother Margaret got healed and doing fine. Thank you God. Thank you for your prayers. Your prayers for my husband getting a job have been answered I had requested prayers a week ago regarding a biopsy report. The tests proved negative! I feel as though I've been given a second chance at life. For some reason, I searched and found your web site and there is no doubt in my mind that He guided me to you. I had requested prayer for us as my husband had lost his job and it had been 7 and one half months of closed doors in the job market. It was two days after my request that things started happening at a fast pace. He is now employeed with a nice company and our household is saved The prayer works and to God be all the glory. I thank each and everyone of you who have prayed ... She actually felt the prayers and the word heal her. Thank you for your prayers of the past ... every time I send a request in the answer comes soon. Very serious things like a child who needed to return home but an ex husband was not allowing it,a job that was a good job, lots of things ... and I want you to all know how much your prayers are moving mountains. I wrote a prayer request asking for prayers to conceive and by the blessing of God I am now pregnant! It's a total miracle, it's been two years since my last two miscarriages and I haven't been able to conceive till now. The awesome power of prayer! The request has been answered ... the Lord God has provided me a job beyond what I could think or ask and pays MORE than I asked!! Since I mailed you asking for Prayer Request, I have gained such faith and peace On 2 Sept I asked prayer line to pray for a six year old girl who was seriously ill with crumbling hip bones and that several operations had not helped her. One final and chancy operation was in prospect - the last hope ... Last week she had her first bicycle ride! I am writing you now to give praise to the Lord, because today my sister has keys in her hand to her new home I am so thankful for your ministry and have called
upon your group a few The "spot" on the x-rays is no longer there according to her doctor. We believe that this is as a result of your prayers as well as our own daily prayer. Thank you for your prayers. I am very grateful for your help in my recovery. It has been tough, for sure, but Divine intervention has healed the terrible depression and anxiety that I was feeling Please tell your faithful prayer line folks that I'm beginning to think they have a direct route to God through their prayers !!! I am happy to give a praise report and testify that God has provided a job About one week ago I requested prayer about a problem Iwas having with tinitus, a serious problem with my ear. I asked for prayer and the very next day the roaring sound was gone. I thank Jesus and this prayer line. I will never underestimate the power of prayer again. Thank you for your prayers. The blessings and answers have already began to flow from God THE LORD has blessed us with a miracle, baby ... improves every day Our request for a miracle has been granted. (The baby) was transferred ... to wait for a heart transplant. The doctors there found, however, that she was not a candidate because her lung function was so low and there was no way to increase it. Her heart was pumping at only 20% capacity and the family was preparing for a funeral ... Yesterday, after two weeks sedated, asleep and on life supports, she awoke. At around 9 pm last night, they took her off life supports, and she breathed on her own. Thank you so much for your prayers. I am feeling so much better and stronger. Prayers help so much. Yesterday and today I had more of a sense of peace then I've had in a long time. I thank you with all my heart for your prayers Our family has returned to the sacraments. Your prayers have helped us to regain our faith. Thank you for all of your prayers. I want you to know the bleeding stopped and the biopsy showed no abnormal cells and the pap smear is normal. The condition has been healed. Thank you Jesus and bless all the Christians who prayed for me. Her doctor had done all he could...and all she had was her own strength and our prayers. I am so overjoyed to tell you that she woke up from that coma a few hours ago. No words can express the joy at this miracle....or our deep thanks for your prayers and your help. I asked God, why, why did you answer when strangers prayed for me, why didn't you answer when I was doing the praying myself? And he told me that it was because they had the faith that I hadn't had for a while... I just wanted to update you, and to ask you to please pass this on to anyone who ever doubts the power of their intercessory prayers. Thank you so much. I have God back in my life, my heart, my soul. I'm not alone anymore. Today my doctor called and told me all of my lab test came back normal. I am so happy and thankful to all of you for sending my prayers to "Our Lord." My awful despair lifted the morning after I e-mailed you my request and I soon after received two lovely e-mails from my daughter. Last week I asked for prayers and I have been able to feel the prayers and what a comfort you have been for me During the week I felt that someone was praying for me. My lump under the arm has all but disappeared ... and my cyst on the ovary has diminished 75% Thanks so much. The test was negative...great news. I know the power of prayers and the comfort they provide Thank you very much. My prayers were answered Just got home from work, and its like a new job I have PRAISE THE GOOD LORD for his wonderful ways he works in our lives, the lady I share the office with was so nice to day. Thank you all for your prayers Thank you for caring and especially for your prayers. I'm amazed that the Lord has sent me to you. I don't know why and I probably never will It has been through all the internet prayers that my mother and I have been able to get through these trying times. Our Lord has done miracles. I'm so grateful. Thank you all for your prayers and thanks to God for his healing powers. My mother is home and well on the road of recuperation. She was able to exceed any expectations of the doctors and therapists. My prayer was answered, and I continue to thank the Lord and prayer for His ever presence being in my life. Thank you Lord Jesus!!! Several more doors have opened up, and God is moving!! Thanks to you and your prayer group my mother is improved a lot praise the Lord Thank you so much for the prayers . . . I believe our marriage continues to strengthen. Thank you for your prayers...R's cancer is in remisson.. He is out of the hospital...the doctors say he has beaten the Odds (little do they know).... God heard you and J. was blessed with a healing. Today he is well on his way to a normal life. My brothers road is not an easy one and we ask you not to give up on him. Your prayers for him ARE working. He already beat the odds. The doctor's are so amazed. They really expected him to die during the first 2-3 days of chemo. "I GOT A JOB!!!!!..... I can't tell you how happy I am tonight. You see... I did not just get a job.... I got an awesome one!!! ... I'm sure I will never know till eternity what the full effect of your prayers had on my life" "God has really done a wonderful work in our marriage and I know that it was because of the prayer of the righteous" "I feel the peace of Christ surrounding me during this time" "Last week - when the prayers started - it was like a light bulb coming on" "The surgery scheduled for my brother has been indefinitely postponed" "I cannot believe the way it just stopped hurting" |
