Today is the feast day of Saint Joseph. During a terrible famine in Sicily, the people prayed to him to deliver them from drought and famine, and their prayers were answered. Saint Joseph is the patron of families, fathers, people in doubt, social justice, travellers, and those who are dying.

"prayed to him to deliver them from drought and famine"

Terri definitely needs to be delivered from the drought and famine being imposed on her. It's almost eerie how perfectly the ST. Joseph prayer fits with what's happening.

It occurred to me earlier today, that Saint Michael the Archangel intercessions are needed for Terri too.I have never witnessed anything in my lifetime as evil as what is being done to Terri. I also found on another site about Saint Michael, that the Diocese of Tallahassee has a devotion to him.

The prayer is located on the right side of the web page.
