    I just got word that a very dear friend of mine from high school (named Mary) has received a cancer diagnosis and has 2 weeks to a month to live. She had no idea she had cancer til a few weeks ago but it has metastasized everywhere.
    I am asking your prayers for her for a holy death. She is a good and kind person but nominally Episcopalian and God does not figure too much in her life. All prayers for her soul would be appreciated. Thank you prayer warriors!

    Praying for your friend Mary and united it to my prayers for my dear friend who has received a metastatic cancer diagnosis as well. Heartbreaking to hear.

    Thank you Sam.
     
  8. We have vespers and benediction this afternoon at 3.45. I was going to have the day off but that still small voice stopped those thoughts in their tracks when I read your prayer request. I am happy to go and pray for your your friends AED and Rosalie. Thank you for the prompt.

    Will offer Allana, Mary, Leela and everyone else here at mass today. So many cases of cancer going on at the moment around me too, it is very disturbing. May Our Lady hold each of them in Her arms.
