In our parish, a young man with acute leukemia, nmot expected to live, has had a sudden and totally unexpected remission. His fellow Knights attibute it to prayer with the special invocation of Father McGivney. Rather stunning result. Power of prayer.

I doubt any Christian would doubt the power of prayer. I have a friends whose mother has conjestive heart failure and is on a heart transplant list. We have prayed, especially her family that the damage done to her own heart would not worsen until a heart can be found. The damage that is done was the kind that doctors said would not get better, but it would only get worse. Her last visit to the doctor showed that not only was the deterioration stopped but her heart HAD improved to the point that even if it takes a while she will be fine with no transplant. Prayer by people no more "special" in the eyes of men then you or I:)
