Could you please post a prayer request for your readers. My sister, Becky, has multiple very complicated medical problems, and has been in the hospital for two weeks with peritonitis. We thought she had turned a corner, but her kidneys are barely functioning, and they probably won\u2019t be able to do dialysis or a transplant. If your readers could seek the intercession of St. John Paul II for her, my family would really appreciate it.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Father, hear our prayer for Becky\u2019s complete healing in body, soul, and spirit. \u00a0Grant her caregivers grace, compassion, knowledge, wisdom, counsel, understanding, skill, and the the proper technology to assist in that healing. \u00a0Give her and all who love her grace, peace, consolation, strength, faith, hope and love. \u00a0Mother Mary, St. Luke, and St John Paul II, pray for her. \u00a0We ask this through Christ our Lord. \u00a0Amen.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
