Prayer Request

My cousin Laura passes on this prayer request on behalf of her friends. Please pray for 2-year-old Libby who has leukemia. This little girl is the youngest of 5 children. The family is so strong in their faith but this kind of thing can't help but take it's toll on all of them. Libby is in and out of the hospital, can’t walk any more. A bone marrow trnasplant is a possibility. Let's all of us raise this precious child and her family up in prayer.

St. Gerard, who, like our Savior, Jesus Christ, loved the little children so tenderly and by your prayers freed many from disease and even death, listen to us who are pleading for Libby. We thank God for the great gift of Libby and ask Him to restore this child to health. This favor, we beg of you through your love for all children and mothers. Amen.
