Hard Times Again
As some may know, my hours have been cut at work yet again. Earlier this year than in previous years. Only getting 26-32 hours a week, and I make less than $10.00 an hour.
I
heat with an old electric furnace which not only is on it's last
legs, but when I just now got home, is no longer working. It runs but
no warm air, so apparently the blower is gone.
I
have a high power bill once again, and since the rules for getting
heating assistance and power bill assistance have changed, I no
longer qualify for any help.
So
once again, I would be extremely grateful for any assistance my
readers might be able to provide.
I
am going to be $183.00 short on the power bill (which must be paid by December 22, 2014), and it's going to take another $125.00 to buy a kerosene heater to get me by until such a
time as I can get the furnace repaired.
I
hate doing this, but I have nowhere else to turn, but to God and my
blog's readers.
So
thank you for your prayers and any other assistance you can provide.
God
bless you all, and Our Lady keep you in her care.

Urgent Prayer Request -- Please Read -- UPDATED

Jackie
R., a young lady I work with, has essentially "adopted" me
as her dad, and really thinks of me in that way.
Jackie
is about 3 months pregnant. Well, this evening, she called me at work
from the hospital. She was bleeding and was taken to the emergency
room.
The
good news is, that the baby seems to be OK at this point. They were
able to detect it's heartbeat. However, Jackie has to really take it
easy until she can see her doctor on Monday, so that they can try to
determine what is taking place.
I
was the first person she called to tell what was going on, and she
asked me to pray for her and the baby, and she asked me to ask my
friends and family to also pray for them. Please also pray for her
husband, as I know he is also worried. Jackie tries to play "cool
and tough" but I could hear the fear in her voice.
So,
I am asking all of you. Family...friends...acquaintances... both near
and far... to please pray for Jackie, her husband and their little
one.
