Father Dana is dying of ALS. He’s a friend of friends for me, and I met him a number of times here in North Carolina. What a great priest. Read his cry from the heart by clicking on “Continue reading” above. Hail Mary…
When some of my own unrepeatable circumstances weigh on me, I think of other priests such as Father Dana. His very life of profound faith in the midst of impossible circumstances – his very life now on what will be his death bed being an act of intercession for the entire Church – is a great encouragement to me.
ARISE! LET US BE GOING! 
If the Holy Father gets any of the letters addressed to him, this is the one that speaks straight to the truth of the heart.
For your own unrepeatable circumstances, I offer reparation by…
thank you father. Know of my prayers for you and your ministry.
Likewise. In solidarity in the hearts of Jesus and our Blessed Mother. Blessings upon you. I beg yours
The beauty, eloquence and truth of this letter is certainly underpinned by Father’s situation. May God hear his plea and come to the aid of those for whom The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is the conduit of their relationship with God and His Holy Bride. May the angels lead Father into Paradise. God bless you for sharing this most beautiful missive.
