PRAYER CORNER

No one is ever alone in their fight against cancer. Having a strong support group can make the most difficult of times less frightening. Pairing that support with your faith is the strongest treatment that will ever be discovered. Please allow the visitors of Protect the Package to join you in praying for you or your loved ones that are currently battling cancer or for those who have passed away.

It is my hope that once a month I will be able to publish your prayer requests here in the “Prayer Corner.” You can send your prayer request directly to me by clicking on the button below. I am honored to be a part of your prayer corner along with all the other concerned and loving friends of Protect the Package.

" Hey John,

As we discussed the other day, I got involved with the American Cancer Society when I was 13 years old because my Grandma Em had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. At that time, I convinced friends to roller skate 75 miles with me for the cause. Many years later, after losing my grandma, I lost my great aunts, one to colon cancer the other to bone cancer. Then, a great uncle to prostate cancer.

On April 24, 1999, my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer. This was my youngest son's first birthday. His happy birthday party was overshadowed by a dark cloud and again "the big C" word. Hearing that another family member had cancer made me angry. Hence, my passionate involvement with ACS and Relay For Life.

" Dear John, I would like to pray for my Aunt who was just diagnosed with Stage 4 lung cancer. She was given only 6 months to live if no action was taken. The news was obviously devastating to all of us in my family and it occupied our thoughts constantly. What can we do to help? Pray of Course!!! The power of prayer is amazing. She agreed to chemo therapy but right after the first treatment she developed fluid on her lungs and ended up in the hospital again. Besides all the pain associated with the fluid they had to discontinue her treatments until they could stop her lungs from filling up with the fluid.
