Pablo's Brother

The McCormick Family is asking The Xavier Nation to pray for one of their daughters who needs our help.
Rosellen Creighton is a dear friend of our family and is loved by my brother Brian (who really appreciated those sweet NCAA seats in Nashville). She is a huge supporter of Xavier and helped make our University what it is today. Her, and the Sisters of Mercy, are asking all of us to pray to Catherine McAuley for a miracle cure for Rosellen.
Please read her letter and pray the prayer below to Catherine McAuley for Rosellen. Think of it as a “three-fer”; Rosellen gets cured, Catherine McAuley becomes a Saint, and the Sisters are happy. Does anyone want mad Nuns? I don’t!
I know the Xavier “family” will help our own once again. This is why the Xavier Nation is truly great!
Thank you & God Bless you, Rosellen Creighton, and all fans of Xavier University!

Dearest Friends:
I desperately need your help. As we skip along life’s path, we occasionally trip over a pebble, or sometimes a large rock. Usually we fall, get up and get on with our journey with a minor scrape and sometimes stitches. Unfortunately, I have slammed into (as my grandchildren would say) a “ginormous” boulder.
For the past year and a half I could tell my body was not feeling like my body. After many tests and doctors’ visits I have been diagnosed with “upper motor neuron” disease…which qualifies as Lou Gehrig’s disease or ALS. It is incurable and there are no effective treatments. Life as I have known it has drastically changed.
My professors, mentors and friends from Edgecliff College, The Religious Sisters of Mercy, have presented me with something that is doable. Their founder, the Venerable Catherine McAuley, needs a miracle to be considered for Beatification – on her way to Sainthood. I want to be her miracle. I have enclosed information about Catherine McAuley and a prayer. Please open the card to the 8 x 10 size. This is where the prayer is. Please pray for my cure. Help me soar over this “ginormous” boulder.
Thank you all for your prayers. I appreciate every one!
Love, Rosellen
PRAYER FOR THE SICK
God of Love and Mercy
You inspired Catherine McAuley
To serve your Son
By responding to the needs of the sick,
We ask that through her prayers
You reach out with your healing prayers
You reach out with your healing love
And restore
ROSELLEN CREIGHTON
To full health,
We ask this in complete confidence
Through Jesus Christ, Your Son.
Amen.
Venerable Catherine Pray for us.
