Father, hear our prayer for Barry\u2019s complete healing in body, soul, and spirit. Give his caregivers grace, wisdom, knowledge, understanding, skill, compassion, and the proper technology to help with the healing process. Give him and all who love him grace, peace, strength, faith, hope, and love. Mother Mary, St. Luke, and St. Peregrine, pray for them. We as this through Christ our Lord. Amen!<\/p>\n

Would you mind praying for me as I\u2019m applying for a few jobs (I\u2019m reapplying for my current job which, due to funding, is being restarted since funding is switching over, as well as for a nightshift IT supervisor job, which would be a promotion and a hefty raise for me)? <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
