Prayers for continued remission from Stage IV Non-Hodgkin’s Large B Cell “Double Hit” Lymphoma with a median survival of 2-3 years. My next PET Scan is 12/08/25. Grateful to God for these bonus years! Grateful for your prayers!

Eternal rest grant unto my precious friend, Sr. Marmion Karels of MSB Crookston, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon her.

May her souls and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

Please pray for my dear friend who has severe nerve pain and is only able to sleep about 2 hours a day. Please pray that they are able to find her some relief soon. The mental and physical pain is wearing her down.
