Br. Chris
Hi friends,
I'm going to ask for your prayers for a special petition. Br. Chris of the Lasallian community in Oakland where I will be soon living, has been struggling with complications of cancer and will be going in for another surgery on his spine this week. It is extremely invasive and he has already been through a lot with his treatment. Though I only spent three days with him, I call tell you that he is a wonderful man full of the love of God and love for the poor with whom he works. He is shining example of dedication in service, community, and faith, and a model of hope and perseverance. If you can, please pray an Our Father for him and remember him in your daily prayers.
