Catholic idiom: "Storm heaven."
In other words, "Please pray fervently for my very special intention, that insert special intention here."
This phrase is an emphatic form of the simple "pray for me" and should be used in times of great need. Metaphorically, the sense is that the prayers offered up for the known or unknown intention should be as a storm in heaven.
