“God of love and mercy, assist Fr. Tom in this time of trouble and anxiety. Ease his burdens. Strengthen his faith. Increase his trust and confidence in Your compassionate care.

Give him the courage he needs, dear Lord, to face the difficulties before him, knowing that with Your help, miracles happen and lives are restored.

Jesus, keep Fr. Tom and his doctors and nurses close to Your Sacred Heart, and bless them abundantly as they conquer and overcome Father’s heart problem. Amen.”
