Please Pray for a teacher I know. He got himself into a spot of trouble for resisting Planned Parenthood’s Teen Outreach Program taking away valuable instruction time to recruit in his math class.
This has caused quite a stink with the pro-abortion management at his school as you can imagine- up to and including a District Administrator telling him he can’t use the words “God Bless You” in the class room or on any correspondence. He is on the front lines of the culture war in a way that few of us ever will be, and he’s under direct persecution right now.
Father, bless and prosper your servant as he seeks to honor your. Protect him and his family and vindicate him with your Son’s glory through Christ our Lord. Mother Mary, mother of martyrs, pray for him.
Another reader writes:
Could you ask for prayer for Samuel again? He had another operation on his left leg yesterday, but the stitches came out of his right foot, so its a mixed bag right now.
Father, grant Samuel complete healing through Christ our Lord. Amen. Mother Mary pray for him, his caregivers, and his friend who cares about him and is Christ for him.
Another reader writes:
I would like to ask for prayers on behalf of a former co-worker of mine who suffered a stroke in his office on Friday afternoon and wasn’t discovered until Wednesday morning, unconscious but breathing. He is not very old, lives alone, and his employer was closed Monday and Tuesday for a long holiday weekend.
Once he was taken to the hospital, they managed to stop the hemorrhaging in his brain, which is going to allow them to work on the other issues which developed over the weekend. This apparently puts him in a stable state, although they are watching him like a hawk. I’ve been advised that at this point, it’s a waiting game…no news will be good news at this point, since they’re not expecting changes within days, but in weeks/months.
Yesterday he underwent 2 surgeries to relieve pressure in his brain – the first was not successful but the second was. From what I’ve been told, if he does come out of it, he’s going to have a long recovery.
Every time I think of the poor guy unconscious in his office for 4 and a half days, it just makes me sick.
Father, grant this man complete healing through your Son Jesus Christ, and let this issue in your glory and in the increase of love and friendship in this man’s life. Grant skill, wisdom and compassion to his caregivers, and grace and peace and strength to all who care about him. Mother Mary and St. Luke pray for him.
