Hi Catie, Maggie, Max, Mia, Molly, M.E., Kevin & Christine : ) We continue to pray for you many times, everyday! We want to remind you of the scripture that is posted throughout St Joseph's School and is in the hearts and minds of all the children, their parents, the teachers and staff! This truth appears in: Matthew 19:26 "Jesus looked at them and said, "For human beings this is impossible, but for God all things are possible. and again in: Mark 10:27 Jesus looked at them and said, "For human beings it is impossible, but not for God. All things are possible for God." and again in: Luke 18:27 And he said, "What is impossible for human beings is possible for God." and it is spoken by the Angel Gabriel to Mary during the Annunciation! It appears in the scripture a short time after "Hail Mary, full of Grace, the Lord is with thee" (Luke1:28) Luke 1:37 "for all things are possible for God" Mary's response to Gabriel is the Magnificat: Luke 1:38 "Mary said, 'Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be done to me according to your word.' Then the angel departed from her" You know what happens next, don't you? Mary goes to help Elizabeth which is the"Visitation" Mary enters the home of Zechariah and Elizabeth, greets Elizabeth and then... Luke1:41-42: "When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the infant leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth, filled with the holy Spirit, 42 cried out in a loud voice and said, 'Most blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb.'" This beautiful truth from God is "chronologically embedded" in the Hail Mary Prayer! And the next word in the prayer: JESUS ! Our central focus when we pray every Hail Mary and every Rosary should be Jesus! We pray the rest of the Hail Mary: "Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death." Jesus is your greatest treasure! All of the love that we share with each other is a dim reflection of His love; isn't that ***?!! Thank you for sharing your joys and struggles; we are listening and praying for your every need! May you continue to find the joy in each day and continue to let it warm your hearts! Love and Prayers, The Marinelli Family Vince, Anne Marie, Maria, Angela & Veronica PS We get to pick up our "Walk for Catie" t-shirts today....so many people participated that ours were on back order! You are Immensely LOVED by so many people!

Hi Catie, I am Jakes mom. I just had to write and say to you - YOU ARE THE MOST AWESOME KID EVER!!!!!!!! I wish I was in Memphis right now to give you a big hug. I am giving you one from distance, but I am squeezing pretty tight so I hope you feel it. I don't think there has ever been another 7 year old that has touched so many lives. I hope you have a great time at The Nutcracker. Keep posting those pictures, that smile warms my heart. Have a super day and give your Mom a hug for me. Love, Amy

Dear Catie, Today we went to Macy's and dropped many letters in Santa's mailbox - all filled with wishes for you. Each letter also sends donations to the Make A Wish Foundation. You are in our prayers.

8) Good morning Catie! Last night we went to see a play at DeSales University which was very good. It started snowing before we left and was pretty messy driving around in. But we made it home safe and sound. This morning it the sun is shining so bright and looks so pretty on the glistening snow! We have a bit more than a dusting, but not quite enough to measure an inch. We're heading over to my mom's to take care of her walks and then I'm going to a "purse party" - do you like purses Catie? I love purses AND shoes!! The grandma of the family our Michele was a nanny for creates/makes her own purses - I'm excited to see what they look like. I hope today will be another good day. much love, sylvia xoxo

Bob Rydell wrote on January 1, 1970

Catie and family, My name is Bob, I'm Braydens dad. I met Catie once sitting near the cafeteria. I wish I'd had the chance to meet her again. The main thing I remember about her is the smiling eyes behind the mask. I have heard so much about her from my wife. She is a big fan. My heartfelt wishes go out to you and I hope you have a great time in France. I will continue to watch Catie's site and pray for the miracle. God bless you all.

Hello there beautiful Girl! I love the new pictures, looks like you had a great thanksgiving (and you Obrien kids looked very stylish, as always!) Our thanksgiving was good, lots of food, and of course everyone being loud, (there were no meatballs for Matt to steal though) I am counting down the days until I can come visit you and Maggie and Max and Mia and Molly and M.E.! i have some more country songs I think you'll like. I'm going to make another CD to bring you. (and some of your favorite candy of course, shh don't tell mom and dad!) I think and pray about you every single day and I think you're the bravest little girl! I talk about you to all of my friends and have your pictures all over my house, everyone is always asking about that pretty little girl! I love you and cannot wait to give you the biggest hug! I will see you super soon when you get home!

The Holzman Family wrote on January 1, 1970

Hi Catie, We saw your commercial very late Friday night. We were 1/2 asleep at the time but seeing YOU, so pretty in pink, caught our attention! You are awesome in it! This morning after Mass, they had St. Gianna's glove available for us to venerate. We did so in proxy for you and we will continue to ask her to intercede for you as we pray each day for your miracle. Love and super-sized hugs, The Holzmans :grin :grin :grin :grin

Christine and Kevin, I am a friend of your mom's Christine, from St James church. I saw your two beautiful little angels on Sunday, walking into mass with your Mom and Dad. I could sense God's presence in the love that surrounded your family and in the faces of your precious little ones. I wanted you to know that I am thinking of you all and praying for you every day. With love, Suzanne Auletti

Gretchen Spann wrote on January 1, 1970

Hi Catie! We thought of you tonight as we decorated our family Christmas tree and put up our two St. Jude's ornaments. When Neve received them last year as presents, we never knew the significance they would have for us today - having followed your journey to St. Jude's and now preparing to go home. Safe travels this week - we are excited that you get to go home and will be surrounded by your family! Lots of love! Gretchen, Phil, Finn & Neve :) :roll

Hi Catie -- I hope you had a great trip home to PA! I just wanted to let you know that I absolutely love the picture of you and your cousin Helen at your slumber party over the Thanksgiving holiday. You two look like you're having such a fun time and it reminded me of the fun I had with my cousins when I was your age, many years ago. I'm an only child, so my cousins were like my brothers and sisters and we had so much fun at our slumber parties too!!! Thanks for helping me remember such a special time from my childhood!!! You're awesome Catie and I wish you the best!!! Love from me and my family, Leslie, Jimmy, Isabella and Domenic

Catie - I hope that you and your Mom and Dad had uneventful flights home. I prayed that it would be a good welcome home. I'll be praying that in the excitement of the reunion you all will get some sleep tonight. I love you so much. Thank you for teaching us about grace in suffering.
