O Good Shepherd, you never cease to

seek out the lost, to call home the stray,

to comfort the frightened, and to bind up

the wounded. I ask you to bring.. (names)

back to the practice of the Faith,

and to remove all obstacles that prevent

them from receiving your abundant mercy,

which flows sacramentally through

the heart of your holy Church.

Through the intercession of Mary,

the Mother of God, their Guardian Angels,

their Patron Saints and the ever-prayerful

St. Monica, may you pardon their sins

and unshackle them from whatever

hinders their freedom to come Home.

For you, O Good Shepherd, have loved us

to the end and offered yourself to the

Father for the salvation of all.

Amen

Say this prayer to Saint Monica for Conversion of husband and son and other personal intentions

PRAYERS TO ST. MONICA

Dear St. Monica, troubled wife and mother, many sorrows pierced your heart during your lifetime. Yet, you never despaired or lost faith. With confidence, persistence, and profound faith, you prayed daily for the conversion of your beloved husband, Patricius, and your beloved son, Augustine; your prayers were answered. Grant me that same fortitude, patience, and trust in the Lord. Intercede for me, dear St. Monica, that God may favorably hear my plea for(mention request here...)and grant me the grace to accept His Will in all things, through Jesus Christ, our Lord, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever.

God of mercy, comfort those in sorrow, the tears of Saint Monica moved you to convert her son Saint Augustine to the faith of Christ. By their prayers, help us to turn from our sins and to find your loving forgiveness. Grant this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
