'Real Housewives of New Jersey': Teresa Giudice Looking to Higher Power to Get Her Through Possible Jail Time

Are you there God its me, Teresa Giudice?

It looks like in their time of need the Guidice's have turned to a higher power to get them through their possible jail sentences. A source told Radar Online that the reality show stars have been consulting with their ministers and that the devote Catholics are "relying on their faith to get them through this."

The Real Housewives of New Jersey stars are facing time in prison after being charged with 41 counts of fraud last summer. The counts include bank fraud, conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud, and making false statements on loan applications.

Teresa is hoping that praying to this higher power will help her, by allowing her to serve the possible 27 month sentence while on house arrest. This would allow Teresa to stay with her four daughters Gia, Milania, Gabriella, and Audriana. If Teresa and Joe both have to serve time in the slammer they are hoping to serve them consecutively rather then concurrently; this way one of them will be able to look after daughters will the other one is behind bars.

The source goes on to say that the religious counseling is preparing her, should she have to face jail time.

"Spending time with her family minister is helping during a very dark time. She has always been extremely religious and is relying on it more now than ever. She has been knocked off the pedestal and is now being forced to eat a big piece of humble pie. Publicly, Teresa is putting on a brave face. She is still acting like she isn't afraid of the looming possibility of spending time behind bars."

We will have to wait until the sentencing on July 8, to find out if Teresa will face time behind bars.
