Please Pray

I know the hour is late but my heart is heavy and I have lots to do in order to get us on the road to Savannah sometime after the sun is up. However, at the top of my list is to beg for your prayers.

The four men preparing for ordination and their families are under some serious spiritual attack. One has a father who has been in the hospital the last several days. He came home last night, but they all could use your prayers. Heaven forbid that this father miss his son's ordination.

My uncle has been taken to the hospital for the second time in several days. They're not sure but they think he's reacting badly to the chemo. It will take nothing short of a miracle to get him to the ordination on Saturday, but that's what he wants more than anything in the world.

My brother met with the organist yesterday about the music for his first mass. A friend of his arranged for a hand-picked choir and they just needed the organist to accompany them. He refused. Yep, that's right. Refused. He said something about not knowing the music and then he fired off at the pastor saying Aaron's choices were liturgically incorrect.

These three things are just a sampling of what these guys are facing as they approach the biggest day of their lives. Please join me in prayer that Keith and my uncle make it to the ordination and that a perfect replacement organist will be found for my brother's first mass.

While you’re at it, please pray for the rest of us as well. There are a number of extended family members traveling over the next few days. Pray for the health and safety of all of us. Especially pray for Johnny, Aaron, David and Stephen that the Lord will protect them and give them peace.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
