A request for prayers for a woman who provides a great service for our Catholic Church in Canada

I would like to ask the readers of my blog to please keep Sylvia of Sylvia's Site fame in your prayers. Not only is her husband facing some significant medical challenges in the next few days, but she recently fell and broke her arm, injured her leg as well as her foot.

I do not always agree with some of her positions but I have never doubted the sincerity of her convictions when it comes to working towards the protection of all children within the Catholic Church, as well as helping to rid the church of predatory clergy who abuse them. The work she does on her blog in this regard has been called by some a national treasure and it's hard to disagree with that. 

 Get well soon Sylvia and Michael. You are in the prayers of many people who appreciate your good work.

We speak not to the culture of death  that grips our world but rather for the culture of life and light which ends with the gift of eternal life. For example, the Catholic Church in its hum...
