Welcome Home!

Father is home.  On Saturday he was released from the hospital. 

He is under strict doctor's orders for rest, he cannot have visitors.  He asks us all to keep praying and fasting for him.

If you would like to make a meal and bring it by the Church Office, we will get it to him.  Remember, meals need to be diabetic friendly.  Father prefers chicken or fish to red meat.  Call the office before you begin cooking, we want to make sure each day is covered.  Office is open 8 AM til 4 PM Monday - Friday.

Wednesday Afternoon

Fr. Bill called today and said he has not forgotten us.  He said to continue the prayers as he is doing along with his spiritual reading.  They did another bone marrow test yesterday and do not have the results back yet.  His 2 sisters were here over the weekend to visit and he enjoyed seeing them.

Mid-week Update

Father called the office on Monday, it was good to hear his laugh.

He had a very important visitor on Sunday, Bishop Anthony Taylor.  (The Bishop was in Hot Springs to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of Sister Martha's religious vows.)

To quote Father "I am still on retreat, and praying for all of you."
