I just flew home to visit one of my older brothers. He had to be admitted to hospice to manage his pain. I gave him a brown scapular, Miraculous Medal and St. Benedict Medal, and while he stated he is not Catholic, he placed them on.

I gave a number of miracles with these items and asked the question, why do these always only happen in the "xxxx" Church? Is someone trying to tell me something??

Please pray for my brother and his family. I hope I made a point.........

Prayers for your brother, that he be relieved of pain and suffering and be granted faith.
