Alexandra
Topic: Prayers & Hope

My cousins' daughter, Alexandra "Alex" Coberley, has just returned home from the hospital. She is a brave young girl, only 6 years old, and she is having a tough time dealing with type 1 diabetes. Please say a prayer for this young girl and keep her in your thoughts. She had a rough week last week!

Also, Senator Kennedy is being opperated on by the same doctor that did my Dad's biopsy (Dr. Freidman). Interestingly, Friedman said my Dad's brain tumor was inoperable and wouldn't try.  I had heard that Kennedy's tumor was also inoperable. I wish Senator Kennedy the best of luck and just wish that we had better luck with Dad's treatment.

St. Theresa's Prayer
Topic: Prayers & Hope

May today there be peace within.

May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be.

May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith.

May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you.

May you be content knowing you are a child of God.

Let this presence settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and every one of you.

Prayer Before Surgery
Topic: Prayers & Hope
Loving Father, I entrust myself to your care this day; guide with wisdom and skill the minds and hands of the medical people who minister in your Name, and grant that every cause of illness be removed, I may be restored to soundness of health and learn to live in more perfect harmony with you and with those around me. Through Jesus Christ. Amen.

Into your hands, I commend my body and my soul. Amen.

Prayer for the Sick
Topic: Prayers & Hope

Omnipotent and eternal God,
the everlasting Salvation of those who believe,
hear us on behalf of Thy sick servant, Bill Beaton,
for whom we beg the aid of Thy pitying mercy,
that, with his bodily health restored,
he may give thanks to Thee in Thy church.
Through Christ our Lord.

Amen.

Prayer of St. Francis
Topic: Prayers & Hope
Make me a channel of your peace.
Where there is hatred let me bring your love;
Where there is injury ? your pardon, Lord;
And where there's doubt, true faith in you.

Oh, Master, grant that I may never seek
So much to be consoled as to console;
To be understood as to understand;
To be loved, as to love with all my soul.

Make me a channel of your peace.
Where there is despair in life let me bring hope;
Where there is darkness, only light;
And where there's sadness, ever joy.

Oh, Master, grant that I may never seek
So much to be consoled as to console;
To be understood as to understand;
To be loved, as to love with all my soul.

Make me a channel of your peace.
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
In giving to all men that we receive;
And in dying that we're born to eternal life.

Oh, Master, grant that I may never seek
So much to be consoled as to console;
To be understood as to understand;
To be loved, as to love with all my soul.
