Prayer Request

A reader writes:

The father of a dear friend was diagnosed with a brain tumor last week. He is having the surgery to remove it today. The cause is unknown, and there are still many questions. The doctors are optimistic, but even with a perfect surgery, it will be a long recovery. It would mean a lot to have the prayers of you and your readers!

Father, hear our prayer for this man’s complete recovery in body, soul, and spirit. Give his caregivers grace, skill, understanding, wisdom, knowledge, skill, compassion, and the proper technology to assist his healing. Grant him and all who love him grace, peace, strength, faith, hope, and love. Mother Mary and St. Luke, pray for them. We ask all this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
