Monsignor Braden Leaves Hospital

John & Ann Arnold

Greetings editors,

Msgr. Leroy Braden, Section 10, has been very ill this year. He had not been able to say a mass all year, until the mass shown in the picture that he said for the Section Board. You should have seen his face light up when they wheeled him into the chapel at St. Joseph's hospital in Houston and he saw all the lovers waiting for him.

This week he was released from the hospital and is back at St. Dominic's nursing home. His spirits have been renewed as he has tossed the PJs and is back in his priestly blacks, sitting in his wheel chair ready to be a priest serving his people instead of being a patient in a hospital bed. We believe Marriage Encounter is his primary reason to go on living.

Thanks to all who have prayed for and visited him.

We love and appreciate your caring support.
John & Ann Arnold
Section 10
