I hope that each of you have been able to witness the power of prayer in your life (hey, I guess you are a witness right here and now...my road from diagnosis to complete recovery is a true testament to the Power of Prayer). Not because I hope you have witnessed suffering, but because I wish that you have been blessed to be a part of something so special. The Power of Prayer is truly a life changing event. I am currently surrounded by several friends that need the support of prayers and I am asking that you join me in keeping them in your thoughts and prayers...
A special Bearcat fan is recovering and healing after heart valve surgery. My 'favortist' Kindergarten teacher is hopefully coming home from the hospital soon after falling on the ice and breaking her hip and having surgery. A wonderful father in the community needs prayers that his broken arm will heal on its own without the risks of surgery. An elderly gentleman in our parish also fell and broke his leg. And God called a precious 3 month old baby home last week. Please help me pray for his parents (they have faith that could move mountains), his Big Sisters, and his Daycare Provider and family.
I thank you for the continued support and the extra prayers heading into surgery tomorrow and I am sharing those prayers with my friends that are bearing their own crosses. We will try to get to a computer later tomorrow to share the surgical outcomes with you. I am thrilled the time has finally come to get this crud out of my system...a giant step on the road to complete recovery. Father Emil Kapaun, Servant of God, Pray For Us!!!

Praying for you, Dan, Sashy and anyone else there at the hospital with you tomorrow. A special prayer for your doctors and nurses taking care of you tomorrow; I pray that God may use them as his tools to remove 'the crud' from your body so you may move on to Complete Recovery! Your spirit has grown so much over the last 6 months, it's been inspiring to watch. The Power of Prayer is an amazing thing, sometimes to the point of being speechless! Good luck tomorrow lovely! Maggie is VERY excited to start school in the morning! The girls were in bed at 8:30, if you would believe that! Love and Prayers!
