Prayer Request from Fr Ken Deasy for Grover

This is from Fr Ken Deasy.  Thank you so much for your very much appreciated prayers for Grover (and Fr Ken, too) and may God bless you and your loved ones, Teri & Michael (see below)



My brothers and sisters, 16 years ago OUR Grover, was baptized in the Father, Son and Holy Spirit at St. Agatha's by Deacon Ricardo Recinos (deacon's first baptism). For the past 5 weeks he has been hospitalized initially with septic shock, some bleeding in his brain and other neurological complications/symptoms that would resemble a stroke.  Tomorrow morning, the desperate measure of inserting a feeding tube will occur.  Please... (invoking Matthew 17:21)...that  In the name of Jesus Christ, and confessing the inadequacy of my own prayers, may I ask for your prayers as well? 
" Lord, Please have Grover recover where he can live a quality life or, if it be Your Will, Lord , take him Home "where Lazarus / Grover is poor no more." 

I could use a prayer as well. 



Prayer for Healing
Lord, look upon Grover with eyes of mercy, may Your healing hand rest upon him, may Your life giving powers flow into every cell of his body and into the depths of his soul, cleansing, purifying, restoring him to wholeness and strength for service in Your Kingdom. Amen.

A Plea for Divine Help
Hear us, Lord, holy Father, almighty and eternal God, and graciously send your holy angel from heaven to watch over, to cherish, to protect, to abide with, and to defend Fr Ken Deasy now and throughout his life, Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

PRAYER FOR MIRACLES & HEALING

Heavenly Father, I trust in Your great love for me and all Your people. I ask You to unleash a wave of miracles and healing throughout Your church through the prayers of Your people. Touch the sick and the suffering, and restore them to wholeness and well­-being. Lord Jesus, I ask for the grace to pray with expectant faith for my brothers and sisters who are hurting and in need of Your healing touch. Holy Spirit, open my eyes to see the kingdom of God all around me. Help me to recognize Your presence and Your work in the people I meet, and to be responsive to people I encounter that are in need of prayer.  In the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.
