I ask that who ever will pray for my family as we celebrate Denita's life and cope with her untimely death one year later...

Denita interned for a local paper so there is an article on www.Charlotte.com about this already...hopefully someone will be held accountable for this senseless loss...

It's me...
Sorors and GC friends,
Now it's me standing in the need of prayer...
The matriarch of my paternal family is in the hospital. She is 90ish. It is a scare, but through talking to quite of few PCPs, I am surely comforted and blessed to know that God says she is not finished, yet...
She worked closely with my grandfather who was the president of Bethune-Cookman for 28 years. Later on, she changed wayward elementary kids lives that are still remembered as they turn 50 years old. She is an awesome, God-fearing woman, whose wisdom extends across the Universe and into the Heavens.
I wish my grandmother was EVERYONE'S grandmother and I am here to share her livelihood with you all!
Stay blessed.
Dr. AKA_Monet

Soror,
I am really sorry to hear this. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers. I will be calling your aunt and your cousin tonight.
I will be praying.

Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you Soror during this difficult period. What a blessing that she lived 90 years and that she is surrounded by the love of her family while she is in the hospital.
So many elderly people are left alone to fend for themselves and her heart must be overjoyed to see her legacy stand firm and strong in front of her.
May God bless and keep you always.

Standing in the need of prayer
Sorors and sistergreeks, I am standing in the need of prayer right now. I am just going through...it seems like there is always an obstacle in the way of me achieving happiness. I am asking for the Lord to break down these barriers and for peace in my life and in my family. In Jesus Name.
Thank you!!

Hello sistergreek. ((((((((ljkelly))))))))
I will keep you in my prayers. I went through MANY trials and tribulations in 2007, and just like you, I felt that everytime I tried to get ahead, something was pushing me further behind. So I definitely understand how you are feeling. But remember to always keep your faith and trust in HIM. He will not put anything before you that you cannot handle. And after the storm, you will realize that everything you are going through is for a reason.
