I just found out that our Grand Knight, Adam Williams, had a heart attack this morning.  I spoke to his son on the phone, who says that Adam is doing OK and may be able to come home from the hospital in a couple of days.  I do not know which hospital he is in.  If anyone has more information, please let me know.

Obviously, while he is recuperating, Adam will not be able to work much.

Keep Adam, Mig and the kids in your prayers.

Update: Adam is back home and says he's doing OK.  Keep the prayers coming!

Please pray for the repose of the soul of my father-in-law, David Morrison. Dave passed away a few minutes ago after a long bout with kidney and heart problems. The good news is he had plenty of time to tell all of us how much he loved us. He was a big man with a whole lot of love inside him. Also, please pray for my wife Kathy and her family, especially her mom, as they make their preparations to say goodbye.

Please pray in support of the men's Cursillo weekend that is taking place right now. Two Brothers of our Council are making this weekend: our Chaplain, Fr. Jim Martell, and Brother Mario Bertagna.
