Please pray for my brother who is giving up alcohol - that he may have the grace of God to do so.

Marilyn, that is fantastic. John's CDs are awesome. Even just one at a time.

Prayers for all!

Hi Marilyn,

My family has been touched in so many ways by alcoholism. I am praying for your brother...here is a short take on Venerable Matt Talbot. He, too, struggled mightly with alcohol, and through prayer and working the Sacraments of the Church, he stayed sober for 40 years... www.circleofprayer.com/matt-talbot.html

Sorry, I am not sure how to do that as a live link..I'll have to figure that out...

Putting you all in the Heart of the Immaculate Heart of Mary,

4 Lads' Mom with one on the way!

Marilyn,

Things here have been crazy, but I will pray for your dbrother!

I'll especially pray for healing...it seems through my mom's injury, healing is taking place between some of her siblings....

Your brother and your family are fortunate to have you!
