    I noticed that both Charlie Johnston and Mark Mallett have not posted on their respective blogs recently.
    -Charlie since May 13 (Really May 12, because his May 13 post was from a guest writer).
    -Mark since May 8.

    Charlie has recently asked for prayers. Here's an excerpt from his May 7 post:

    I complain too much about being inundated here. The truth is, I know I could handle it easily – and deploy people to help effectively without burdening them. All I have to do is surrender to the obsessively intense state I use when facing insurmountable odds – and then surmounting them. Shoot, I used to enjoy quietly showing off its effects, going into a project and seemingly effortlessly accomplishing in a day what most struggled for a week to get done. Now it scares me because, once I take it on, I know it will not end until the Storm is finished. It is about four times as long as I have ever sustained it and I am much weaker physically – at least as far as endurance – than I used to be. I worry about how living it fully might further cripple or disable me. It is a reasonable fear, but it is a failure of trust on my part, the very thing I exhort all of you to live well. I keep trying to kick-start it – I know how. But my fear is getting the best of me. It is what is needed to accomplish the work and help us all get through the Storm. I regard it with the same trepidation as a man determining to jump on a live hand-grenade to save those he loves. Ha ha, as the Master says, the spirit is willing (and capable), but the flesh is weak. This is what I have been prepared my whole life for; to defend the faith, hearten the faithful, and defend the faithful. I want to say, along with Holy Mary, “let it be done to me according to thy word,” but I feel more like Peter saying, “Who, me?!”

    So I ask that all of you who will, add this intention of mine to your Fatima Novena, for the time is now.

    Safe in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary!

    I like how Charlie respectfully expressed his concerns of the matter. Indeed, we all need to STORM Heaven with our prayers that we may pass through this STORM with great faith, hope and love in hearts and to always see the rainbow ahead.

    Let us continue to pray for Pope Francis and for the whole world.

    Jesus and Mary, I love You, please save souls.

    Sorry, but I will be unable to attend as I will be out of town camping - God willing.

    I'll send prayers, but can't do much more. Atlanta is a wee bit far from Buffalo!

    I highly recommend watching this video. It was shot recently by a EWTN employee so the video and audio are very good. There were priests and a deacon in attendance asking him questions, including Father Mitch Pacwa. In this video Charlie really sums everything up about his mission and what he expects to come:

    Just a quick thanks to my friends here at MOG. Sorry I rarely come on to comment any more...I am just so swamped - behind in everything. But you are much in my prayers and my affection...and I am thankful for your prayers. The response I am getting is wonderful...and people are, indeed, taking heart and girding their loins, determined to be a sign of hope. A few times it has brought me to tears before I go to sleep.
