In October of 2008, after serving three years as a Naval Officer, I was diagnosed with inoperable brain cancer. This blog chronicles my pilgrimage through life and towards the Roman Catholic priesthood.

Lourdes
Greetings from Lourdes! I have been here for two days now and will be updating the blog with photos periodically. Feel free to send me prayer requests to take to Our Lady in the grotto!

I am glad you arrived safely. Have a wonderful trip. I will be following your blog :) Also, I do have an intention I would love for you to give to Our Lady. My son Kevin (16 years old) has a severe heart condition. He has wanted to be a priest his entire life. Please pray that he receives the strength he needs to accomplish the work God is leading him to do and if it is God's will, to heal him. Thank you, Mary Diehl
sorry cant find any personal messege messege/email fetures. Please remember me to Our Blessed Mother. Espeacilly remember Debra M whom I have entrusted to Our Lady that she may understand the faith. thank you.
Ahhh you're back in Lourdes again, i want to be there too!!! Have been there August 2010 and that was such a wonderful time i had there and i am sure i will go to Lourdes again one day!

Please place this petition before Our Lady at the grotto. I pray for reconcilation and peace for my family members and pray for your continued healing and blessing.
Prayer Request: I pray that the meeting this coming Friday with Social Services to determine where my niece will live for the next year goes well and that all of the parties, the abused and the abusers receive the healing that only Our Lord Jesus Christ can give.
Philip, ask Our Blessed Mother and dear St. Bernadette that, no matter what, I die a faithful daughter of Holy Mother Church. Also, if they would both be so kind as to give us relief from our extreme poverty.
Thanks, Philip! You are so fortunate to be able to be there.
Philip, please pray for an apostolate that God is asking me to carry out for the young women of my diocese who are discerning religious/consecrated life. I am having a great deal of trouble finding competent spiritual directors to help guide them into their vocation... Also, many of the young women are encountering a lot of opposition from family/friends and are in danger of abandoning their discernment due to discouragement. Pray that I could be the sort of example they need who could help inspire them to follow God's will with courage and abandon.
Many blessings and prayers to you, my brother in Jesus!
Philip, My 18 year old daughter and I just watched your video. It was very meaningful to both of us. Please pray for her that as she goes to college next month, she will go to church and continue to grow closer to God. We will pray for you too! Thank You!
