Prayers needed

My little niece, Kate, had open heart surgery on Monday. She has a rare condition where her heart is upside down and on the wrong side of her chest. My sister-in-law and her husband knew this about Kate and adopted her anyway because they feared she would die in China. If you could offer any [...]
