Rosary and/or Divine Mercy chaplet

I really believe that we need to be up on the mountain like Moses imploring God the Father for a miracle while Tim is down on the battlefield. Could you pray a Rosary and/or Divine Mercy chaplet daily for Tim's healing and for the doctors and nurses to figure out how to stabilize him. And to pray until he is home and working again with his teens! :)

Praise God! Tim is off

Praise God! Tim is off the breathing machine. However, still in serious condition in icu. #keeppraying

PRAY for Tim

Tonight I went to visit Tim again in the hospital.  in ICU.  I read on his CaringBridge that he was intubated.  But, it really did not prepare me for what I saw.


He is in need of our prayers and our sacrifices.  This is totally out of our control.  We need a miracle.


His colitis and liver issues are completely separate to each other.  Without him having colitis, he would have never known he had a blood clot on his liver!


But, because of his colitis, his liver issues are hard to resolve.  They have tried to put him on blood thinners (to remove clots to his liver and other organs) but the colitis is making him bleed.  See, we need a miracle.


I want you to PRAY.  And, pray constantly - offering up little sacrifices for him throughout the day.  And, PRAY for a miracle through JPII's intercession, asking our Blessed Mother for help, sending your guardian angel to help, etc.  Just PRAY.




May God's Most Holy Will be done.




And, if you feel comfortable, get other people to pray for him and/or with you.

Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us!

Last Wednesday night I received an email that a dear friend (friends for 18 years), Tim Davis, was in the hospital in ICU.

I about freaked out, and couldn't sleep all night.

On Thursday, I went to see him with LF.  He was in good spirits, having just come out of surgery where they placed a TIPS liver shunt.

Please keep him in your prayers.  He is 33 and in tip top shape.  He eats all the right foods, has never drank alcohol or experimented with drugs, exercises every day, and loves Jesus with all his heart.

He's also a fellow youth minister at a neighboring parish.

Tim is suffering from inflammatory bowel disease complicated by blood and liver syndromes.

He's been in the hospital for near two weeks, and of course, it's been a toll on his family as well.

The power of prayer is very apparent in my own life.  And, here in Georgia, we have many many people praying for him, and now I believe more people need to pray for him.

He was moved from ICU to a regular room on Sunday.  But, tonight, while visiting with friends, he began having sharp abdominal pains and went for an emergency CT scan.

Please gather and pray for this dear friend of mine.

Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us!

single most important relationship

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Jesus is AMAZING in His love for us!

My teens in the ministry God has blessed me with inspire me to do more in my faith life.

When they get so excited about sharing why they chose their Confirmation saint or just want to tell other teens about Jesus, it gets me teary-eyed.  I ponder on what the early Christians went through, and that gets me excited.

Last night during Confirmation class, we continued our discussion about Acts of the Apostles.  Everyweek I take about 10 minutes and bring to life the early Church.  For me, its a refresher course, and for most of my teens, its the first time they're really able to live it.

Last night we talked about Peter and John going to the temple to pray and to spread and defend the faith.
Last night was the first time I saw a spark ignite in more than one the teens' eyes.  Last night, I hope, they were feeling what I feel when I read Acts of the Apostles - strength and courage!

Jesus is my best friend, and getting to know Him is the single most important relationship in my life.

God's enduring mercy.

I am $600 away from paying off another credit card.  I am so elated right now.

There is no bounds to God's enduring mercy.

Keep praying for my Nov 21st special intention.

If it's His will, it will happen.
