The aftermath of this last mid January blizzard left bigger drifts!
The blizzard in the middle of December was zero visibility!
Oh, Oh! After this last blizzard, it's going to be awhilebefore eating outside is possible!
The second (or third?) blizzard with God's creative artistry!
Sunrise on the 29th, a very cold day!
And a beautiful, bright sun dog soon appeared!

Please pray for a healing for me. I have been suffering since December. Doctor said it was acid reflux. I had an endoscopy last month because food was stuck in my esophagus and they said it all looked good. They prescribed me pills for acidity and last week a pill to help swallow easier, but I am still suffering. I cannot eat solid foods because they get stuck in my esophagus and throat. Now I have a hard time swallowing the pills that are supposed to help me. I have to eat cream soups. I am losing a lot of weight. I do not know what to do. I am scared and getting so tired and depressed. I've been praying for help but feel like I am not heard. Please! I texted for me for a healing to eat normally again. Thank You and God Bless.

I am writing to ask for urgent prayers for my husband and me. We are going through serious marriage problems, and only God can intervene. Please pray that God’s help and Our Lady’s intercession will be with us, and that His holy will may prevail in our marriage.

Thank you, in advance for your prayers.

In Christ,

María M Buelvas
