My niece, Cyneri Olivares, has a biopsy report coming tomorrow October 6th. She is so young and has worked hard all her life to put her two children through school & universities. Her oldest son is studying to be a doctor & her daughter is in the middle of completing her degree. I am her aunt. She lost her mother 3 years ago very young & her father has dementia. & handicapped. She is heavily relying on prayers to get her through this challenging time. She is a very kind & GOOD soul & our family knows God WILL get her through this & produce GOOD results & she will NOT have cancer. We are asking for prayers and any masses to be offered to Our Compassionate God, Jesus Christ for His "Divine Intervention." Thank you my brothers & sisters in Christ for your Love, Dedication & Commitment in your prayers for my Beloved Niece named "Cyneri."

I kindly ask for prayers for peace throughout the world and for an end to all armed conflicts, as well as for harmony and fruitful cooperation among all nations. At the same time, I ask for prayers for the health of all people, that they may be freed from every illness and suffering.

In my personal intentions, I ask for prayers that I may receive the grace to build a relationship with a woman of African origin and to find in her a good and loving wife.

I also ask for prayers for wisdom and open hearts among the Polish government and its authorities, so that they may welcome with openness migrants, migrant workers, asylum seekers, refugees, and displaced people from Africa and from other distant parts of the world.
