THANK YOU St. Jude for prayers answered. D.T.

THREE DAYS MIRACLE PRAYER to the Holy Spirit. Holy Spirit, you who make me see everything and show me the way to reach my ideals. You, who give me the divine gift to forgive and forget the wrong that is done to me, and you who are in all instances of my life with me. I, in this short dialogue, want to thank you for everything, and confirm once more that I never want to be separated from you, no matter how great the material desires may be. I want to be with you and my loved ones in your perpetual glory. Amen. You must say the prayer for 3 days consecutively without saying your wish. You will receive your wish after the 3rd day, though how difficult it is. A promise to publish the prayer after your favour is granted. J.D.

WAGNER: In loving memory of our dear mom and grammie. Betty Helen, who went to be with her saviour in April, 2017. God saw her getting tired, a care was not to be, so he wrapped her in his loving arms and whispered “Come with me” She suffered much in silence, her spirit did not bend, she faced her pain with courage, until the very end. She tried so hard to stay with us, her fight was all in vain. God took her to his loving home, and freed her from all pain. Always loved and remembered by daughter Cheryl, son-in-law Mac, grand children Mac, Janelle and their families. We miss you mom!

Thank You St Jude for prayers answered. S.M.S.
