Friday, August 18, 2017
Beginning Sunday, August 20
As many of you may already know, I retired as of Sunday, August 13, 2017.
As I now have more free time available, and also feel the need to do so, I will begin "reviving" my Catholic blogs once again, starting with "Daily Catholic Mass Readings", and "Saint Quote of the Day". The "re-start" will begin on Sunday, August 20, 2017.
Much appreciation to those who have continued to follow, read, and comment on my blogs during my long absence.
The other blogs will be getting new and updated posts as time allows.
Thank you all for your understanding and support.

Please Continue Prayers for My Brother Randy
About
2 weeks ago, I wrote a post here, asking for your prayers for my
youngest brother Randy.
He
is still unable to use his left arm after the neck fusion surgery to
repair damage from a 20 year old car wreck.
Here
is what he posted yesterday on Facebook:
Went to Dr today for 1st
post-surgery check. I still can't raise my left arm, and losing
strength in bicep. They are ordering an MRI to make sure fusion is
ok, and to see what might be causing the problem. I'm worried to the
extent that for what I do as a lab tech, I have to have 2 working
limbs with dexterity and strength, and right now my left arm is
practically useless. I LOVE my job, my department, and the people I
work with, and I would HATE not being able to do what I love. I'd
appreciate it if you'd include me in your prayers. I don't care if my
left arm is restored 100%, or if I can't make chords on a guitar. If
it's skinny as a stick, that's OK as long as it can hold a tube,
twist a lid, etc. Just hoping for any improvement at this point just
for encouragement. Thanks all!
So,
please keep Randy in your prayers, especially that he gains use of
his arm again and is able to return to his job,
Thank
you, and God Bless you all!
O
merciful Father in heaven, thank You for being with Randy while he
was in surgery. Thank You for blessing the surgeon with the skill and
knowledge needed to do his and safely bringing Randy through this
operation. O gracious Father, bring healing to Randy and bless him
with the best care possible as he recovers. Continue to bless him
with your tender care. Grant him patience during his recuperation,
help him grow in strength each day, and bring him to full recovery
quickly, without any setbacks.
Amen.

Urgent: Help for Lisa Graas Who Was In A Car Accident
Photo of Lisa Graas' car taken after the accident. |
My good friend, and fellow Catholic blogger, Lisa Graas, and her daughter Bethany, were in a head-on collision on December 2, 2016.
I
will let Lisa’s own description from Facebook explain what
happened:
Lisa
has a GoFundMe
page that was set up earlier last month to help with upgrades to her
blog. Lisa will require several surgeries on her heel, and it is
going to be awhile before the insurance kicks in.
So
please help out with a donation if you can by clicking here :
https://www.gofundme.com/lisagraascom
When
you get to Lisa’s GoFundMe page, you can click the “Updates”
button where you can read her update posts about the accident.
