A loving Grafton couple is unexpectedly in Springfield due to the wife's 35 year old sister giving birth on Tuesday to a healthy boy, yet suffering from severe toxemia herself. Her chances are unknown at this time. I request your prayers for this couple and their entire family and for the hopes of the new Mother to regain her health and raise her newborn first born. Whatever your faith, your prayers would be so helpful in this very tough situation.
Faith does offer so much along with a sense of true community.
Common threads permeate our varied lives throughout the Blackstone Valley communities. Yet, we as individuals, often face our private life trials alone and must replenish our souls with uplifting experiences - through thought, word or deed. Also, there are external factors that can forever change the paradigm of life- for an individual, community or far beyond. A tragic accident resulting in unbearable loss for family and friends, a frightening diagnosis, a company layoff, achieving an unexpected success, a new baby, steadfast beliefs on volatile moral issues or universal issues such as starvation, racism, war that cry out to us. The SOUL searcher welcomes insights on issues that touch your heart and soul.
