DeColores! Your prayers are needed for the complete recovery of Fr. Mike Farrell, Pastor of Divine Mercy Church. He was in a pedestrian/car accident recently and is in Holmes Regional Hospital in Intensive Care. He has suffered a broken pelvis and a broken arm. Please join the congregation of Divine Mercy as we pray for his recovery. The Diocese has been helpful to provide priests for weekend masses, daily masses, funerals, weddings, etc.. We have no associate priest, so we have been graciously helped by neighboring parishes. Your prayers during this difficult time would be appreciated. God Bless.                                                             Meg Cox

DeColores!
 I just wanted to give you all an update on my brother-in-law. All of your prayers were definately heard! Mike came out of his surgery with flying colors. What was suppose to be a 4 hour surgery ended up only being an hour and a half. AND, they only had to do a triple bipass instead of a quadruple. Evidently a part of his heart that they thought was damaged was only stunned. The doctors said that he will be better than new!
My sister asked me to thank everyone for their prayers. She truly appreciates each and every one of you for lifting them up in prayer. She said she feels like she is a true witness to God's miracles, and she felt everyone's prayers as she had so many moments of clarity! This has been an amazing close moment for our entire family!
I too would like to thank all of you for praying and passing the news on for others to pray. I knew that Christ's healing hands were upon us and Mike would survive this ordeal. He had so many wonderful people praying for him! Thank you all again! I am humbled by the love and support that this amazing community gives. You all are truly God's disciples! 
The power of prayer is an amazing thing, and so are all of you! Thank you again! 
Peace to all,
Glynnis Fadok

My dear brothers and sisters,
Could you all please keep my brother-in-law, Mike Barnes, in your prayers. He suffered a heart attack Monday morning and will be going through quad-bipass surgery at 8:00AM this morning. He has 95% blockage on one side of his heart and 75% on the other. He is in NHC Downtown Naples as he was airlifted there from Key West.
Mike is a wonderful Christian man who does not drink or smoke. His biggest vice is ice cream! He is very fit as he is a retired firefighter and is now a fisherman who sells lobster and stone crab to local markets and restaraunts down in the Keys.
My sister feels very confident that God is with them, and the Holy Spirit is keeping her together. She told me that Mike was suppose to be out on his boat pulling traps but a problem with his lift kept him home waiting for a part to come in. She happened to be home that morning too. He refused to let her call an ambulance (They live 24 miles from Key West). She got to just outside of Big Coppitt Key and pulled over because he appeared to get worse. She called OnStar and they directed her to the Big Coppitt Fire and Rescue which was just around the corner from where she pulled over. Almost as soon as she got there, he collapsed and they rushed him into the ambulance to work on him. She didn't know until later, but they lost him twice and shocked him back with the paddles. Debbie (my sister) said that she feels like God didn't give her all those circumstances that saved his life thus far to just take him away, so she is very at peace that he will recover.
I ask that you pray not only for Mike, my sister and family, but that you pray for all of the doctors, sugeons, and nurses who are caring for him.
Thank you all and God bless,
Glynnis Fadok

Please pray for Hunter Lopez, the subject of the following update from his father:

Every one has been amazing.  the prayers are working.  I can feel it.  Never have I joined a group like this one.  I am eternally grateful to you all. 

Hunter has a long way to go.  I pray that God continues to show his goodness . Hunter will have surgery on Wednesday.  With God's help, he will be able to live a normal life.  The ligaments that attach the spine to the head have been torn.  They will take a piece of one of his ribs and use that to seed bone growth between the top of his spine and the base of his skull.  The upside will be he can have a normal life but will have limited head mobility.  It is dangerous surgery because of his tenuous condition.  His head is basically detached at the spine.  The slightest wrong move will result in paralysis.

He has lost the function of one of his kidneys.  Thank you God for giving him 2.  There is some concern about his pancreas.  This is serious.  We are hoping and praying that it will heal.  His liver is bruised.  One of his lungs slightly collapsed but seems to be doing okay.

Hunter Scott Meredith will be 10 in May.  He was born premature by 4 weeks.  He likes to give us scares.  He was petite but he turned out okay.  As a small child, he had some growths on hs head in the scalp area.  They removed them surgically to see if they were cancerous.  Again, God was just making sure we were paying attention to this guy.  They were benign. 

I have endless love for my oldest grandchild.  He inspires me to be better.  He is kind to all and is a constant prankster.  Everyone loves him.

God allow me to enjoy this child and in your infinite mercy, please bestow his pain upon me so that this child can live to serve you further.


March 10, 2008

Many thanks for all of your prayers for Jo Woodward and her family.  Jo has been discharged from the hospital, and she is at home.  As far as we know, they were able to remove the entire tumor - she'll know for sure when she has a follow-up visit with the surgeon.  She will not be able to drive for about 6 months, but she should be able to return to work in about 6 - 8 weeks.  Jo is one of the most positive people I've met - she is  looking forward to a complete recovery

A message from Rob Aboud

Hi to all our good friends,
As you all know, Ken’s at rest as of yesterday morning.  Colleen and I spent some time with him Wednesday night and we had some laughs as well as some serious discussion.  We knew he was ready to begin his Eternal life.

We made the arrangements today at a local funeral home.  Ken will be cremated this weekend and his memorial mass will be on Wednesday October 24th at St. Joseph Catholic Church, 87 Lacy St, NW, Marietta, GA 30060.  Visitation will be from 9:30am with Mass at 10:15AM that same morning.  He will also be interred into a beautiful resurrection garden at St. Josephs Church after the Mass.
In Lieu of Flowers, Fran and the family have requested that donations be made to the hospital foundation that supported Ken through his battle with cancer.  The address to mail donations to is:
Wellstar Foundation for STAT Clinic
2000 S. Park Place
Atlanta
, GA 30339

My Mom and our boys will be coming in to be with all of us.  My Dad is too weak to make the trip, so please pray for both of them in this difficult time of mourning of their son.  Little Lou will have good friends taking care of him while Louise is here for a few days.

Please share this message with whomever you think might want to say a prayer or two for us all.  My email contact list seems to be a little short of so many of our friends.  Thanks so much for your blessings and prayers.  We will celebrate Ken’s life and the fact that his suffering has ended and he is resting in Eternal Peace.  His time on earth was certainly full of so many reasons for happiness, laughs, great memories with our families, and plenty of good rounds of golf!  His greatest joy most recently has been that he enjoyed his time with his grandson Tyler for 10 weeks.  Amy has plenty of pictures to show Tyler so he will always know his Grandfather was there with him from day he was born.

With Love and Thanks,
Rob and Colleen

Hello Everyone,
We need your prayers!  Last night Fran & Amy called to let us know they finally have some idea of what's going on with Rob's brother Ken.  He was diagnosed with non small cell lung cancer.  Initial assessment is stage 3 or 4, but they are going to scope him today to stage the cancer and do more testing regarding areas it may have spread to.  The doctors told Fran it has definitely metastasized.  He has had such severe bone, leg and back pain that we are really worried about bone cancer.  The next few days will give us a better picture of what the future looks like for Ken.  Rob and I will be flying to Atlanta the first of the week as he has the MS150 Ride this weekend.  Ken and Fran's daughter Amy is 6 months pregnant and we ask you to keep her in your prayers as well.  Please pray for Rob's parents, Lou & Louise.  They are 88 years old and the heartbreak and stress from this illness will be difficult for them to shoulder.  We'll keep you informed as soon as we know more but at this time the picture is not looking good. I know this note sounds pretty  bleak but Rob and I know that God is good.  We are strong in our faith and know that God will sustain us.  We know that His plans are not to harm us and even though we may not understand His plans we do know that He will be with Ken and our family.
God Bless,
Colleen Aboud

JJ's Surgery is OVER and it went VERY Well! 
JJ is home and doing great! Thank you all for you many calls, prayers and concerns.  
JJ's heart surgery went well. It turns out he was born with an extra set of wiring that's what  was causing his heart to short circuit. It is amazing what science can do! The procedure was a little over 4 hours long and a great success. He spent one night in the hospital after surgery being monitored and is now back at home recovering for a week, then he can return to regular activities and back to UCF! 
If you have called to check on us, thank you....If I have not called you back... I Apologize. This was a rough week. Things are beginning to settle down! 
Thanks again for all your prayers and calls! He surely is loved! God was definitely there with us! 
God Bless, 
The Ward Family

Dear Friends, 
We request your urgent prayers.  Isabelle has not been feeling well for quite some time and today,she went to the emergency room and they discovered masses in her neck and chest cavity.  Based on a variety of symptoms, the doctor suspects a type of lymphoma but nothing can be certain until a biopsy is done.  We have an appointment in the morning and ask that you pray for healing and the best outcome possible.  We also request that you pray for peace and trust in the Lord's holy will in our lives.  We will update you once we know more.  We so much appreciate your prayers and pray for you and your loved ones. 
Blessings,
Jim and Isabelle (and Kolbe)

Update on JJ Ward 
JJ saw a cardiac specialist, an electro physiologist. He will be having his Heart Cathetar on Wed. January 10th. The success rate is 90-100% that they can make him all better and totally fix the short curcuit in his heart. The risks of the procedure are MANY! We won't go into that! Just pray! They do stop his heart when they break the curcuit and reset his arithmia. The procdure takes 3-4 hours if there are no complications.  Please keep him in your prayers! Now till the procedure - he is a walking time bomb and also during the 10th and through his recovery. 
Thank you all for your many calls, prayers and concerns. I will try to keep  you updated through e-mail. It is so nice to know you care. I am passing all the messages and e-mail son to JJ! 
God Bless!

Please lift up my sister Diana in prayer. She is having open heart surgery, a double bypass, tomorrow (December 6th)morning at 6AM.
This has become to be known by many as a common procedure, however, my sister is a special case due to the fact that she is a survivor of juvenile diabetes of 38 years. Diabetes is known to be very hard on the body organs. Thirty-eight years is along time to endure the disease and may slow down the recovery period.
Please pray for her and the surgeons’ to have a successful procedure with no complications.
God Bless!

I just wanted to ask you all to keep Marie Harrington in your prayers.  I just talked to John and it seems that the pneumonia that she has been battling for quite some time now is still with her.  It has lingered on in her lungs and doesn't want to leave.  We all know what the power of prayer can do so lets get to it!  Please add Marie to your prayer list.  Lets pray hard for a complete recovery and get her back to normal for the holidays!  Wouldn't it be wonderful for her to be able to attend the Christmas party feeling like she is ready to celebrate! 
Blessings to all!

Update on Cheryl McGowan's great grand-daughter:
Thank you God.  Madison’s last blood culture showed negative for CMV.  After speaking to our parish nurse, Joann, this morning, I feel I have a better understanding of what this means.
The damage to her hearing (left ear) will remain the same. It still is not conclusive to the amount of hearing loss or the prognosis.
However, the wonderful news is that nothing more should occur. The treatment has taken care of the active virus!
Madison still has a swollen liver but that should heal on its own. And she will be on oral medication for 6mos under this current treatment. Before being released from the hospital (we are still looking at the 16th), doctors will test hearing and sight once again. And she will be closely watched by a specialist in Orlando (for several years to come)  instead of a regular pediatrician.
I am so unbelievably relieved and grateful to everyone. Thank you all for your love, support, comfort and prayers.
We are not totally out of the woods but I feel we are in the meadow!  Please continue  to remember Madison and her parents in your prayers.
Much love and Appreciation,
Cheryl

PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY!
As you might know, CMV was diagnosed this morning. This disease in so horrible.  And can progress for several years. Deafness, blindness and mental retardation.
The best thing for her is aggressive prevention. Madison is on her way via ambulance  to Shands in Gainesville for treatment . Wendy is here from Michigan (Wen is a great source of strength for her sister) She & Amy are driving Morgan and Willis to Gainesville as we speak. Morgan & Madison will be in Gainesville for 6 wks.  Morgan will be at the Ronald McDonald House. ( Willis can stay for a week then has to come home and go to work.)
This treatment is considered experimental.  However, the doctor here feels this is the best action to take to hopefully minimize damage.  Madison will be getting her brain scan up there.
Everything has happened so quickly. We are all praying for the Holy Spirit to take care of this little baby. And Morgan.
 It is so heart breaking watching this young mother in so much pain. I keep telling her how much I admire and respect her.  What a good mom she is.  I told Morgan this afternoon~~one day she will look back at this time and be amazed how God brought her and her precious little one through it all.. 
 Please God.

May 30, 2006
Jessica Moss passed away yesterday morning (5-29-06) at about 5:00am in Florida Hospital in Orlando. Jessica and Jack Moss were active in Marriage Encounter, Cursillo, and other ministries at Holy Spirit in Mims until they moved to Orlando in 1997 to be near their daughter, Judy. 
The whole process has happened very suddenly.  Jessica and Jack found out that Jessica had colon cancer on their 49th anniversary, May 4th, this month.
She had surgery on May 17th to remove the cancer in that area.  Unfortunately, it had already spread to her liver and other areas.  She was told that she would have 6-12 months to live with treatment.  She had expected to go home last Tuesday, when it appeared that she had developed an infection.  The doctors began antibiotics.  They later realized that the cancer had actually spread throughout her body.   
Jessica encouraged every woman to have a colonoscopy.  I don't think that she ever had.  She was only 70 years old.
Her funeral Mass will be held at Sts. Peter and Paul in Orlando (near San Pedro) on Thursday at 11:00am and the internment (burial) will be held at 1:00 here in Titusville at Oaklawn.
Jack's address is:  Jack Moss
                            3308 Bennington Ct.
                            Winter Park, FL  32792-6221
[ROSEMARY SKUFCA SAYS THAT THOSE WISHING TO ATTEND THE FUNERAL ON THURSDAY CAN MEET IN THE HOLY SPIRIT PARKING LOT A LITTLE BEFORE 10AM AND THEY WILL LEAVE THE PARKING LOT PROMPTLY AT 10AM]

Dear Friends,
Please remember the Timmes family in your prayers.  Nathan Timmes, son of John and Mary, was killed in an automobile accident last night.  Nathan is the brother of Stephen (5B) and Kateri (BMCHS Senior).  Nathan was a graduate of St. Margaret Mary Catholic School in 2000 and Bishop Moore Catholic High School in 2004. He was a student at Embry Riddle University, an Eagle Scout, and was very interested in aviation. 
We mourn with the entire Timmes family:  John and Mary, Kateri and Stephen, Miriam, Bill and Concettta, and Regina and Jack.  We pray that God will hold them in His loving arms at this time of tragedy and sorrow.  We know that Nathan is with our Lord Jesus Christ, and he is in the presence of the angels and saints, and his grandfather, Deacon Jack Timmes.
It is at times like this when we are most aware of the importance of community.  May God comfort and sustain us as we mourn the loss of Nathan, who was so loved.
In Christ’s love,
Mrs. Katie Walsh

Please pray for Carol Rice and her family.  Her mother, Gladys Paquin, died on March 10th in Connecticut.  Some thoughts from Carol: "
The week that we spent with her was filled with many graces and blessings.  She was able to speak to her grandchildren and her great grandchildren, and she and I shared a number of very close moments - nothing was left unsaid.   
So, even though this did not turn out the way we had started to hope for, I could see God acting in some very powerful ways, and it was a wonderful affirmation that all things happen in His time. 
Thanks for all of your prayers and support."

God Bless and love you!

May God’s gentle love be a source of comfort to the Kinsey family during this difficult time.


This request came fro Sts Peter & Paul Ultreya:
February 10, 2006
THANK YOU, I really appreciate it.... His name is Matthew...... its going to be a difficult time.  He is 3 years old and has been thru so much already in that short span.... various things but the biggest is that he was born with a club foot that has been managed with various techniques (casting, bracing, physical therapy, had a more minor surgery at 3 months)
but now he needs this major surgery (they are completely removing and reattaching tendons and all other fun stuff..).  then last summer we found a tumor in his arm that is not a big deal now but could bring pain and movement issues later in life, and could even possibly turn malignant.   So while he is under the orthopedist will remove that too.....


February 5, 2006
Ellen Ginevra is home from the hospital and resting comfortably. 
Her pathology report came back; all margins clear and lymph nodes show NO cancer. . . Praise the Lord!!  As you can imagine she is resting much easier and even had an appetite this afternoon.  She will be following up with her surgeon this week and then the oncologist in 3 weeks to get a better idea of what type of treatment and how much.  The cancer was 2 centimeters, within the 4 centimeters.  It looks like they got it all. . . hmm I wonder how that happened??
Ellen is forever grateful to all and sends her love. .She will be back to normal in no time.

Hi everyone,
I just spoke with Tony and Ellen (Ginevra) is now in recovery.  She went in at 1:00 pm and finished up around 5:00.  Everything went as well as expected. The surgeon wouldn’t speculate and said they would know more by Monday when the Pathology report comes back.  The reconstructive surgeon was pleased with his part and she is now resting in recovery. Thank you all for all your prayers and support, e-mails, letters, etc
Let’s continue to pray that the worst is over and she will have a speedy recovery!
Gayla


January 29, 2006
Update on Ellen Ginevra:
Hi everyone,
Well Ellen is having her surgery Wednesday this week.  She will be at Holmes Regional.  She expects to be in the hospital for 2-3 days and then recovering at home for 4-6 weeks.  At least this is what the reconstructive surgeon is telling her.  Her general surgeon could have other plans!  She has her appointment with the oncologist exactly 3 weeks from surgery to determine treatment.
Tim and I spent Friday night and Saturday with them.  They are holding up considering, and they both are so thankful for ALL of you and your calls, cards, prayers and support.  They truly believe and know the Lord will guide them through this and give them the strength they need.  It’s been a tough few weeks, and it’s about to get tougher.  Please continue to pray for Ellen, especially Wednesday ALL DAY!
Thanks again to all – you’ve really made a difference.

Please pray for Bill Andrasco who will be undergoing open heart surgery soon.  Here's an exerpt from an email message from his wife, Alice.
When Bill first had his heart cath. the doctor told him that he needed open heart surgery but thought it would not be necessary for another year to year and a half.  However, after he had the nuclear stress test the doctor said it needs to be done right away.  Bill has an appointment with the surgery at 8 AM tomorrow to set a date.  Hopefully sometime this week or next.  I think once you know you have to have it, then the quicker the better.  There is a lot of strain on the heart (and mind) the longer you wait and worry.

On Jan 4, 2006, at 1:48 PM, Gayla wrote:
I just spoke with Ellen and mostly Sandy who was with Ellen during the visit with the surgeon.  He is encouraging her to have a double mastectomy with what they know so far.  She is meeting with the plastic surgeon tomorrow, and will be scheduling surgery after that.  It will be within the next 2 weeks (hopefully).
Sandy said the surgeon was very to the point and told Ellen since there was also somthing showing up in her left breast, that he would do both.  Again, they won’t know anything until they get in and take it out, and then wait 2-3 days for the reports to come back.  Ellen said Sandi was great and really drilled him and took a lot of notes, which she is going to type up and send out (I will forward as well).
Right now we just need to pray that it hasn’t spread to the Lymph Nodes and that it is contained.  They did learn that just because the mass is 4.5 centimeters, that doesn’t necessarily mean the cancer is that big, it could be much smaller, again they won’t know until they go in and get it.
Wish I could give more info, but it was a short conversation.
She will have to do chemo for 3-6 months, depending on how the reports come back, and they will determine if radiation is also necessary.
Ellen appears to be holding up well, Sandi said the toughest part was hearing him confirm to do the double mastectomy.
Ellen thanks everyone again for all your prayers and support.  She asked me to forward any e-mails to her which I will do.
I will also continue to update when I hear more. 
“All things are possible through Christ” . . . Ellen will get through this!

My dearest friends and family,
I went and had the biopsy done yesterday and although the pathology reports won't be back until Monday, the doctor is reasonably sure that what he found is cancer. I'm scheduled with a surgeon for Monday for a consultation and surgery on Tuesday.  The doctor is insisting that regardless of the pathology report, he wants the mass removed.
Please, please continue to pray for me - that the pathology proves the doctor wrong and the surgery will be the end of it.  I know in my heart that "all things are possible through Christ".
Thank you for keeping me and my family in your prayers, and if you would, pass this on to all who you know what the power of prayer can do.
In His Love,
Ellen Ginevra


December 28, 2005
My brothers and sisters in Christ,
I am asking for your prayers of healing for myself.  I had a mammogram and ultrasound this morning and the doctor found a mass that he is "very concerned" about.  I've been scheduled for a biopsy first thing in the morning (Thursday, Dec. 29th) at 8 am.
I know what the power of prayer can do - so I'm asking that you please pray for the results to come back as a benign mass.  I would also appreciate you forwarding this email to your prayer partners and anyone that you think might pray for me.  May God bless you (and me!).
Ellen Ginevra


December 15, 2005
Request from Ellen Ginevra:
My sister-in-law, Joyce Bogan, was admitted to Orlando Regional Medical Center and is scheduled to have major back surgery tomorrow, Thursday, Dec. 15th at 3 pm. Her vertebrae are collapsing - the doctor told her that any pressure - even standing - could put her in a wheelchair for the rest of her life.
Please pray for a successful surgery - for Jesus to guide the hands of the surgeon and for recovery.  For those of you who do not know Joyce, she wouldn't do well not being able to be constantly moving - she can't sit still.
With Faith,
Ellen

I just got off the phone with Carrie Rowland Nason. Jim and I sponsored her on LVDC #10.  She also worked with Jim at World Color and is still working for the company that bought out World Color - Quebecor.  Last Friday she went to the doctor because she didn't feel good and found out she has advanced lung cancer which means it has spread to her lymph nodes and other places.  She is desperate to find the right treatment and is asking everyone to pray for her.  She has one son 18 and two adopted kids 18 and 16.  Please pray that our Lord will touch her and heal her and she will feel the power of our prayers.  Thanks.
