bout a month ago, I wrote to you and asked for prayers for my sister, Rita, who was diagnosed with cancer. I wanted to thank you and the Sisters for your prayers. The surgery was successful and the cancer did not spread. This was really a miracle because the preliminary tests showed an advanced stage. Rita was truly in God’s hands. Please continue to keep her in your prayers because she still has to undergo radiation therapy. Enclosed is an offering to help care for the Sisters. Philadelphia, PA

great feeling! Always keep me in your prayers. You are forever in mine. Nothing has changed since our very first correspondence. Sisters, I’m old enough to be your grandma so I consider you my grandchild. That makes “four,” all with great careers. My son is in the medical field.

I so enjoy your magazine, “Partners In Giving.” I thank you for caring. The feelings are mutual. Fair Lawn, NJ
