Urgent Prayer request for Karen's Mom

Blogger Karen Hall has made the following prayer request:

I just got a call from my brother that my mom tripped on something and fell in a parking lot and busted her forehead down to the skull. She didn't pass out and was last seen raising hell because she didn't want to get into the ambulance. She's in the ER now and we are unable to get any further information. We do not want her in to local hospital, which is horrible and where she is much more likely to die of one of those new infections than anything else. I'm about to find a plane ticket to head to Virginia. Please pray mightily and pass it on. Thanks so much.

Ill Fall-Away Catholic Considering Abortion

We just found out tonight that my husband's cousin who is 29 weeks pregnant has a failing liver. She has been hospitalized and will need a transplant.

The hardest thing about this is that she has left the Church and has lived a life of great sin. I will not list them here but they are dire and have most likely led to this condition.

They are thinking about aborting the baby, despite the fact it seems healthy.

She needs so many prayers for so very much. Please, I beg you to pray for her and her precious baby. Help bring her back to the faith, pray for her to keep her baby, and for her health. Pray for her to know that God loves her deeply despite her failings.

Prayer of Saint Gianna Beretta Molla
Jesus, I promise You to submit myself to all that You permit to befall me, make me only know Your will. My most sweet Jesus, infinitely merciful God, most tender Father of souls, and in a particular way of the most weak, most miserable, most infirm which You carry with special tenderness between Your divine arms, I come to You to ask You, through the love and merits of Your Sacred Heart, the grace to comprehend and to do always Your holy will, the grace to confide in You, the grace to rest securely through time and eternity in Your loving divine arms.
Amen+

Urgent Prayer Request for Rich M.

On January 29th I asked you to pray for my brother in law's friend Rich. Here

Tonight my mom gave me an update and it is very sad. She says that he contracted some sort of blood infection at the hospital while visiting his father. Since that time, the doctors have amputated his legs and fingers and Rich is now unconscious.

Please pray that he is not suffering much and that God will heal him as well as help his family. He is a husband and father of two little girls.

Thank you,

Urgent Prayer Request for Fr. Bernard "Brian" Gallagher

I read this on Leticia's blog:

A terminally ill Roman Catholic priest is the center of a tempestuous legal battle between a court-appointed temporary guardian - who has demanded his return to an Arizona care center - and family and friends - who believe such a move could kill him.

Fr. Bernard "Brian" Gallagher, 76, a retired priest from the Roman Catholic Diocese of Yakima, Washington, is the focus of a custody struggle between his family and a woman acting as his legal emergency guardian. Imelda Guadalupe "Lupe" Kowalczyk has insisted to authorities that Fr. Gallagher is mentally incompetent and cannot make his own decisions, among which is Fr. Gallagher's well-documented desire to live with fellow religious in California and to finish his days with constant access to the Mass and the sacraments.
