THE POWER OF PRAYER

This story is from close to home and I thought it really proves the power of prayer.

A handful of years ago, Jarryd Hasfurther was diagnosed with Wegener's Granulomatosis, (Wegener's granulomatosis is an uncommon disease in which the blood vessels are inflamed (vasculitis). This inflammation damages important organs of the body by limiting blood flow to those organs and destroying nonnal tissue) and had to have (and has since) many hospital visits to specialists from coast to coast. St. Frances Cabrini Parish, Benton City made him a prayer bead chain - each person picked a bead, said a prayer and strung it on the string. Ann Marie, his mom, said it was a good, good thing, and he carried it - about 100 beads - to all his appointments.  

So, this year, Jarryd is graduating high school, and is a very active person. THE power of prayer. 
THANK YOU GOD!
