Your recent note to me was a breath
of fresh air. The bombardment of fake
news seems never-ending. It’s great to
know that there are other like-minded
individuals. I guess I am naive as
I never thought this nation would
become socialist, and it shouldn’t.
Domestic enemies, our own countrymen,
44
are relentless in their pursuit to
undermine the Nation’s Constitution
and put an end to Christianity. I kept
hearing that it was our Nation’s “Red
Sea” moment. I prayed and thought
somehow it would not happen. Now,
we continue to pray and wait to see
how God will intervene. < Janet >
Dear Patti, sorry it took me so long
to send you this photo of Marcy and
her daughter. Marcy was a very holy
woman and lived her life for God. I was
blessed to know her for 9 years. She
was always praying. She would get up
every Saturday night at 11 p.m. for two
hours of adoration to Our Lord Jesus.
She prayed for all of us. Marcy is the
one who introduced me to you, Patti.
You were her friend and she looked
forward to your letters. She suffered for
all the years that I have known her and
would offer it up in union with Jesus in
His Passion. She did this until the last
week of her life when, seeing how we
were suffering watching her, she finally
took some pain medication. Up until
that moment, she would insist, Jesus
suffered, so she could too. I know she
is watching over us in Heaven. Please
know you are always in my prayers.

I found your name in the Rick Medina
book. I have heard of St. Philomena
but never prayed to her. I live in a
diocese that has closed all its ethnic
parishes due to the pedophilia scandals
and huge payouts for lawsuits! The
last things we are going to hear about
are Saints, especially ancient ones. We
don’t even see statues in our churches.
Do you have any prayer cards or cords
to St. Philomena? I am a retired RN
age 67 and a widow, going through
bankruptcy. < Susan - PA > Even if you do not hear from me for a
while, please keep me on your mailing
list and in your prayers. I have suffered
a fracture of the spinal vertebra and
must remain in a prone position. I am
trying to offer up the pain in the proper
spirit, and to maintain my daily Decade
and other prayers. There is some hope
for recovery, but it may be many weeks.
Meantime, I hold you all in my prayers
and ask you to keep me in yours. God
is Good all the time. Blessings to all! In
Christ and His Mother, < Cynthia - TN >
In 1990, I became a member of your
faith-filled organization of prayer. My
ten children also received their Decades.
The Newsletters encouraged our family
for many years. Then, as corruption
infiltrated our American life style, my
family members got swept away in the
immoral tide of impurity. Six of my
children still have their faith, but my
four boys lost it completely and now
live for the world. I am beside myself
as the painful years roll by. Today, my
health is failing and I came across
several issues of the Dedicated Decades
and I am now re-reading them. The
world is in such distress. With COVID,
my family is now growing even more
distant. I am not certain what to do
anymore, but to continue my Rosary
along with the many other prayers I
offer daily. My question, where is Patti
Melvin? How are the Dedicated
Decades doing? I have several friends
