Question: Dear brother, My sister is mentally ill, and growing up she was addicted and facinated with occult. She made vooodo dolls, had seances she had a ouija board and always watched disturbing shows. My mother told me to be nice and play and watch these things. My mother has cursed me for not going along with my sister, and encouraging violence because I disagreed. Now as an adult, she still is doing these things. When I visit my mother (sis lives there)-she tell me that I have no idea how evil she is--she encourages her son to continously watch the divinci code and things like this-- How do I visit my mother with my family with her presence there? We are practicing Catholics but I feel an evil presence from all of this. My mother says it's nonsense and sis is just mentally ill. Thank you for your advice.
Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OMSM(r), CCL, LTh, DD, LNDC Dear Janie: I am a little confused here. You mother encouraged violence? What kind of violence and perpetrated by whom? Your mother cursed you for not going along with your sister. How did your mother do this? What did she do to curse you? "Now as an adult, she still is doing these things". Who is "she". Is "she" your mentally ill sister describing herself? Later you said your mother "says it's nonsense and sis is just mentally ill." "she tell me that I have no idea how evil she is". "she encourages her son to continously watch the divinci code and things like this". Whose son? Is this the son of your mentally ill sister? Who is "she". ------------------ With these ambiguities, speaking in general, I would advise preparing your family before visiting your mother by prayers and holy water. This advice applies to anyone who will be going into a situation or place where evil may be, and to which you cannot avoid. Bless each member of the family, including yourself, with Holy Water, and say these prayers: Renewal of Baptismal Promises Prayer to St. Michael for Protection Prayer to our Guardian Angel to Watch Over Us (Prayer #2) Prayer for Filling of The Holy Spirit Prayer To Put On The Armor Of God Three Hail Marys and Three Our Fathers As a general rule all families ought to be praying Hedge Prayer for Protection of Household. If you have not prayed this one, then add it to the list above. When you return home, again bless with Holy Water each member of the family, including yourself, and say this prayer, General Prayer Against Every Evil. Your husband ought to be the one to bless everyone with Holy Water, dipping the thumb in Holy Water and blessing each person on the forehead with a cross, while reciting, "In the Name of the Father, and of the Son +, and of the Holy Spirit. Your husband also should lead in the prayers. If for some reason your husband can't or is not willing to do this, then you as the wife and mother can do it.

Question:

Dear brother,

My sister is mentally ill, and growing up she was addicted and facinated with occult. She made vooodo dolls, had seances she had a ouija board and always watched disturbing shows.

My mother told me to be nice and play and watch these things.

My mother has cursed me for not going along with my sister, and encouraging violence because I disagreed.

Now as an adult, she still is doing these things. When I visit my mother (sis lives there)-she tell me that I have no idea how evil she is--she encourages her son to continously watch the divinci code and things like this--

How do I visit my mother with my family with her presence there? We are practicing Catholics but I feel an evil presence from all of this. My mother says it's nonsense and sis is just mentally ill.

Thank you for your advice.
