I asked permission to post this prayer request on my blog and wanted to repeat it here. This family (the family of a Byzantine Catholic priest) is in desperate need of prayers and I know that you ladies are the ones to ask.   

Here's a repeat of my post:

Fr. Alin, a Byzantine Catholic priest, his wife Claudia, and their twin daughters Anastasia and Tatiana came to our area two years ago in hopes that the doctors at the World Cranofacial Foundation could separate the twins who are conjoined at the head. This afternoon I received a prayer request from a dear friend in our Catholic home school group asking for prayers for this family who have been faced with some very serious decisions this week. Please keep this family, and especially these two precious girls, in your prayers.

Oh, what a difficult cross, Katherine.

I will pray for that poor family as they face this terrible trial.

God bless.
