This is a place where you can request prayers. Our hope is that we can support each other by saying prayers for those near and dear to us who may need special spiritual support.
As mothers of young children, sometimes it is hard to get out and when we do it is usually difficult to really concentrate on “elevated conversation” due to being occupied with our children. The Prayer Corner is designed for you to be able to express a wish for extra spiritual support, not in person, but through a community of mothers around the world connected by cyber space and a common interest.
Feel free to list children, family, friends, loved ones, or even your own name. No reason is unimportant. If you feel moved to add a name, please do so.
Each quarter (January, April, July, October) we will create a new list. In order to protect your privacy (and the privacy of those whose names you are submitting) the prayer list will be cleared on the first day of each new quarter, so that a new list can be made for the following months.
Visit the Prayer Corner often (the button is on the right column), add the names to your personal prayer list, and lets all remember to be grateful for the many blessings God has given us even in the midst of affliction and grief. It is important for mothers to feel supported – we hope this prayer list is one way to help.

He is the Compassionate, the All-Bountiful! O God, my God! Thou seest me, Thou knowest me; Thou art my Haven and my Refuge. None have I sought nor any will I seek save Thee; no path have I trodden nor any will I tread but the path of Thy love. In the darksome night of despair, my eye turneth expectant and full of hope to the morn of Thy boundless favor and at the hour of dawn my drooping soul is refreshed and strengthened in remembrance of Thy beauty and perfection. He whom the grace of Thy mercy aideth, though he be but a drop, shall become the boundless ocean, and the merest atom which the outpouring of Thy loving kindness assisteth, shall shine even as the radiant star.
Shelter under Thy protection, O Thou Spirit of purity, Thou Who art the All-Bountiful Provider, this enthralled, enkindled servant of Thine. Aid him in this world of being to remain steadfast and firm in Thy love and grant that this broken-winged bird attain a refuge and shelter in Thy divine nest that abideth upon the celestial tree.
‘Abdu’l-Baha
