Please pray for Sarah (updated)

sarah (photo credit Lori Elizabeth)

Sarah and baby Cecilia passed away last night. Please continue to pray for her family.

One of my best friends is in the hospital on life support.  She was attacked by what we believe were yellow jackets and had an allergic reaction.  Further tests revealed a ruptured aneurysm on her brain.  She is 21 weeks pregnant with her fifth child, a baby girl named Cecilia.  Please join me in praying for Sarah, her husband Eric, and their children, Liam, Annalee, Jude, Faustina, and tiny Cecilia.  Friends and family are saying goodbyes while praying and hoping for a miracle.

    Prayer of Thy Healing Angels
    That is carried from God by Michael, Thy Archangel

    Pour out, Thy Healing Angels,
    Thy Heavenly Host upon me,
    And upon those that I love,
    Let me feel the beam of Thy
    Healing Angels upon me,
    The light of Your Healing Hands.
    I will let Thy Healing begin,
    Whatever way God grants it,
    Amen.’

      I just finished a novena of Memoraries for Sarah and have asked that she be placed on my parish’s prayer chain here in WA state. I’ll keep Sarah and her family in my prayers – and you too Ginny as I know you must be hurting a lot for your friend.
      God bless,
      Mary Frances
