Would you pray?

I put out a prayer request on Facebook and I want to ask you too......

Would you say a prayer for our daughter Ellen?




Ellen is a 'special' young lady. (she is intellectually challenged) She loves her routine and rarely will go out of it without a fuss. Today and tomorrow her routine will be non existent. Already, she is struggling with that.

Would you pray for her? Pray that she will co-operate without a fuss. Pray that I can remain calm which will help her to accept whatever it it she needs to do, whether or not she wants to. Pray that she will not be too scared to walk down the aisle all by herself. I'm not certain she has fully understood that yet. She will after wedding practice tonight. Oh, I want you to pray!!

Ellen was a flower girl at her sister Marcy's wedding. She was 9, I think. I had loads of people praying for Ellen that day. It was a wonderful day for her. Only once did she start to loose it but she recovered beautifully....believe me, that was a miracle! I believe in prayer, I believe in miracles!

Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

P.S. at the request of Theresa, the wedding starts at 10:30 Saturday morning.
