Prayer Request from Marilee: Prayers for her sister Dianne, please

This is from Marilee. Thank you so much for your prayers for her and her whole family, especially Dianne, and may God bless you and yours, Teri & Michael (see below)




Dear Michael, Teri and Fellow Prayer Warriors,

I'm writing to you with a heavy and aching heart.  My beautiful and very special sister, Dianne is almost ready to go to heaven.  She started to decline very rapidly this week and we started her comfort care today.  She is in my arms as I write this, expecting that she will soon be in the arms of Our Lord.  

Please pray for Dianne, that she will remain at peace and not be afraid.  Please pray for my family, especially our mother, as we are all struggling over the loss of our angel.  And also, please pray for all of Dianne's incredibly special staff, caregivers and housemates who have given the most tremendous love and care to Our Dianne.  We are truly blessed.

My love and thanks to all of you.

Your Sister In Christ,

Marilee

   

Prayer for the Sick
Dear Jesus, Divine Physician and Healer of the sick, we turn to You in this time of illness. O dearest comforter of the troubled, alleviate our worry and sorrow with Your gentle love, and grant us the grace and strength to accept this burden. Dear God, we place our worries in Your hands. We place our sick under Your care and humbly ask that You restore Your servant to health again. Above all, grant us the grace to acknowledge Your will and know that whatever You do, You do for the love of us. Amen.
