As I will keep all of you in my prayers especially today, please pray for my Dad who has bladder cancer that is accelerating, and today I am also an official member of The Ukrainian Catholic Church from RC, as the papers will be witnessed in church this morning.
Seven years in the discernment. Thank you and Many Blessings to all..

I pray to God that His healing hand will halt your beloved father's bladder cancer.

May He bless you in your new spiritual home.

Prayers for your father, that the Holy, Unmercenary Physicians, Cosmas and Damien, guide his doctors in their diagnosis and treatment of him and that he be healed.

Prayers that you are blessed in your new spiritual home

Prayers to the Mother of God, healer of all for your father and welcome to the UGCC. May God grant you many years and abundant blessings in your new ecclesial home.

Regarding "the papers", the rescript is signed by the petitioner and the priest representing the receiving bishop, and the signature is usually witnessed.

Shlomo,

Prayers and Congratulations. It was a Ukrainian Catholic Priest, Fr. Glenn of Chicago now, who got me interested in my Eastern Catholic roots.

Thank you to everyone, especially prayers for my Dad.
God is good and has indeed granted my Father and I "new life" -
he transferred in 2008.


Peace of Christ to all.
