Please join us in prayer for a miraculous cure for Katie

Katie is is bright, funny, loving… and in Schneider’s Children’s Hospital with a rare (and devastating) form of cancer called Burkitt’s. It started out as Lymphoma but has spread to her bone marrow and so is classified as Leukemia. She has gone through chemo-therapy, radiation, a bone marrow transplant and still the cancer keeps coming back.The doctors have nowhere else to go, nothing left to try.
But we do – We can ask God for a miracle. Her family asks that as many people as possible say a rosary for Katie (or even a prayer) this Sunday (February 24th) between 7 and 8 pm in the belief that so many voices raised in prayer at the same time for the same cause can bring about a miracle. . Her family is hoping that many will respond with a rosary or prayer for Katie, through the special intercession of the Infant of Prague.

A rosary prayed tomorrow night, Sun. (2/24), between the hours of 7 and 8 will be one prayed in unity and faith with many others requesting a miracle for Katie from Our Lady and dear Lord.
May God's Holy Will be done.
UPDATE:
We got a call from Jeannie McBride saying "Katie has gone to Jesus" on Saturday(March 1st). We know that Katie did a great job here on earth, and now she is at peace in heaven. Although her life was short-she did wonders by bringing so many of us to Church on that Sunday to pray together as a family.
My prayer is that our faith life has grown, and will grow stronger because of having Katie touch our lives.
Please continue to pray for the McBride family as they go through this difficult time.
