Please pray for Linda, who has had a recurrence of a benign brain tumor that was previously removed. It is the size of a grapefruit.

Also for Millicent, a teenager who has run away from home and as far as I know, family has not heard from her. That was a couple of months ago.

Finally, for Fr. B. He is a holy Orthodox priest whom I believe has been unfairly relieved of his priestly ministry by his bishop, for very vague and silly reasons. He was not defrocked, but cannot serve liturgy and has no parish. He must support himself with secular work. This happened last summer. He has done nothing immoral, but apparently people just didn't like him so made up stories about him, which the bishop unfortunately believed. Please pray that God will soften the bishop's heart and allow this gem of a priest to serve the Church once again in his full capacity.

St. Nectarius, please intercede on behalf of Linda and ask that the Holy Spirit descend upon her and cure her of this ill.

St. Christopher, please intercede on behalf of Millicent, guiding her to a safe haven.

Dear Lord, please let your light shine down upon Father B and allow the truth to be seen by all.

Through the intercession of Sts. Panteleimon, Raphael, and Paul may Linda be healed, may Millicent return home safely, and Father B be returned to his ministry! Lord have mercy on your servants!

Oh dear...crosses of so many different forms, yet each one equally sad.

May our Lord Jesus Christ, through the intercessions of His Most Holy Mother, and through the intercessions of the Archangel Michael, who, together with our guardian angels, protects us from harm and danger and all forms of evil, grant our prayers for the sorrows of these servants of God: Linda, Millicent (and her family), and the priest Father B.

Amen.

In Christ,
Alice

Prayers for all! But let us not forget to pray for those who have borne "false witness" against Fr. B and thereby sinned greatly.

Thank you all. Millicent has turned herself in to some sort of halfway house for troubled teens. So, thankfully she is safe and alive!!

GLORY TO GOD!

Our Father, Who art in heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Amen....
