My maternal grandfather is in the hospital with a major bowel obstruction, hernia the size of a salad plate, and aspiration pneumonia. Please pray for him as his earthly pilgrimage comes to an end and that he might come to Eternal Life. Would you also please pray for all of us who have been and will continue to travel (both long and short distances) to visit him at the hospital and to comfort my grandmother and each other.

Thank you so much for your prayers. You've all been in my prayers and will continue to be.

Kelly

Dear Kelly:

Be assured of my prayers and remembrances at the Divine Liturgy for your grandfather, yourself and all of your family members and loved ones. I ask a kind remembrance in your own prayers.

"O Lord, hear my prayer; receive my supplication in your faithfulness."

"Hear, O Lord, the sound of my voice and have pity on me. Alleluia."

Sincerely in Christ,

Fr. Joe

May the Lord bless Kelly and her family with strength and courage in the face of the reality of suffering and death. May they find in the sufferings of the Mother of Jesus who watched and waited with her Son, a model and a source of consolation.

"Lord, for your faithful people life is changed, not taken away." (Preface I, Latin Funeral Liturgy)

Thank you all for your prayers. My grandfather died last night. He was visit by two priests during the hour of his death.

His funeral is this weekend, so I won't be able to make it to Mt. St. Macrina, but would appreciate your continued prayers, especially from those pilgrims who will be at the Otpust.

Thank you again, and please know I keep you all in my prayers.

Kelly,

Be at peace, as your grandfather is also.

His earthly suffering is over - the Father has called him to Himself.

My prayers are with you and the family

Dear Kelly,

I will remember to pray for your grandfather and for you and your family.


Holy Russian Orthodox-Catholic martyrs and confessors, pray to God for us.

Dearest Kelly: May our Graet Lord and Saviour give his peace to you Grandfather and to your family. What a wonderful man he is to have you as his advocate in prayer.
Your brother in Christ.

Dear Kelly,

Though this is a late post, I hope it finds you and your family resting in the strength and healing love of Jesus.
