I am writing to give thanks to Mother Francisca del Espiritu Santo for favors received through her intercession.

My nephew Roderick lost his job last December 1997. Being a family man, and while he was looking for a job, he finds it really hard trying to make both ends meet with the little amount they have saved. I see his efforts in searching work. Then in March this year, I stayed in my brother's place at Barangay Siena giving me the chance to attend mass every morning where the prayer for Mother Francisca del Espiritu Santo is read after mass. I invoke the intercession of Mother Francisca for my nephew Roderick. Last June 1, Roderick got his job and is now reporting for duty.

Thank you Mothe Francisca for interceding for us in our needs. We will always pray for you, and share your goodness with others. Again, thank you.

Kaya po ako sumulat sa inyo ay upang ipabatid sa inyo na natupad po ang isa sapinakahihiling ko kay Mother Francisca del Espiritu Santo. simula po ng mapasa- kamay ko ang mga panalangin kay Mother Francisca na ipinamigay ninyo noon sa simbahan ng San Jose ay inaraw- araw ko na halos ang pananalangin sa kanya. Ako po ay may 2 mabigat na problema na iniluhog sa kanya. Idinalangin ko sa kanya na ipamagitan ako sa Amang nasa langit doon nga sa mga problema ko. Ang una ay ang tulong na pinansiyal para matubos ko ang lupa ng mga magulang ko na nakasangla at pangalawa ay tungkol sa aking health problems. If I remember right, mga 1986 pa lang ay nagpa-uJtrasound ako dahil may nararamdaman akong masakit dito sa aking kanang bahagi ng tiyan. At doon nga ay may nakitang ovarian cyst na sinlaki ng 50 centavo coin. sabi naman ngdoctor noon ay hindi dapat tanggalin dahil maliit pa. Kapag lumaki daw at saka na lang tatanggalin. Binale walako na ito. Hindi na ako nagpa-ul.trasound dahil sa takot na baka nga lumaki ito. Pero dumating itong April 1997. Iba na ang .sakit at tumitindi hindi lang sa kaliwang bahagi kundi. pati na sa gitna. Hindi ko na ito natiis. at napilitan .lkong magpatingin sa OB-Gynecologist ko. Bago pa man ito sumakit ulit ng matindi ay nananalangin na ako kay Mother tFrancisca na sana ay hindi lumaki ang bukol ko sa ovary. Abut-abot ang dasal ko sa kanya at sa iba ko pang mga patron. Bukod doon ay nagpa-pray over ako sa mga leaders namin sa prayer group na kasapi ako. At thanks God pagkatapos ng series of tests at laboratory exams ay nakitang nawala ang cyst ko sa ovary. Ang nakita ay napakaliit na myoma na hindi namandapat na ikabahala dahil baka raw hindi na ito lumaki pa dahil 47 yrs. old na ako at malapit ng mag-menopause. At nalaman ding mayroon akong cervicitis na magagamot naman sa pamamagitan ng colposcopy at cryotherapy.. Nagpapasalamat ako ng malaki kay Mother Francisca dahil tinugon niya ang aking pakiusap sa kanya na ipamagitan ako sa ating Panginoon. Thank you Mother for the great help you made,. Lahat ng worries ko tungkol sa aking health problem ay nabura na. lsa na lamang ang ipinakikiusap kosa kanya at ito ay ang aking financial problem na alam kong tutulungan din ako ni Mother Francisca. At nagpapasalamat din ako sa kanya dahil kahit paano ay kumikita ako sa aking pagtitinda. Pakiramdam ko ay magaan ang pagpasok sa akin ng pera para matugunan ko ang marami ko pang pangangailangan simula ng manalangin ako kay Mother Francisca. Malaking tulong sa akin si Mother Francisca at pinatutunayan kong ako'y napaghimalaan at paghihimalaan pa. Sana po ay mapabilang siya sa magiging santo.

Yours in Christ,
Mrs. Margarita M. Viajar

Scholarship obtained through the intercession of Mother Francisca del Espiritu Santo

Greetings in Christ!

1 am Bryan from Cebu City, I'm 17 years of age and turning 18, this coming July 4. You know I am a member of the CFC Youth for Christ, however, I feel I'm not fully committed to my covenant but I lifted them up to the Lord knowing that He will gradually transform me and always be there to help me.

The reason why I wrote is that I have an answered prayer obtained from the " Prayer to Mother Francisca del Espiritu Santo ". Every night when I have my prayer time, I always pray to God for Him to help me. You know I came from an average family. I have two brothers, one a fourth year college student and the other, a grade four student and being the second son, I am going to be a freshman college student and with this I have to avail of a scholarship grant for my financial support because my parents don't have a large income to support all our financial needs. My mama is a secretary of an institution here in Cebu and my father, a contractual worker. Before he was an employee of San Miguel Corporation, and was earning big but last 1990, he was paid as one of the early retirees due to technical advancement of the company. However, that same year, even though so depressed, he became closer to God as my parents joined the Christian Life Program of Couples for Christ and now we all belong to this family ministry.

Last May 1997, I applied for a scholarship program being sponsored by the SM Foundation Inc. and fortunately I got an application form and was given a schedule for an interview which will be on the last week of May and I had two weeks at least to prepare myself. I was so nervous at that time that I went praying for God's guidance and my mama advised me to pray to Mother Francisca del Espiritu Santo for more prayers and guidance.

Then came May 27, 1997. There were 26 applicants all in all. I kept on praying because I was so nervous at that time especially during the interview and examination part. I felt so nervous and even fainting. But I believe God is within me. Thanks to my mom, for singing to me a Holy Spirit song which calmed me and gave me confidence that God's presence is there with me. Indeed I became one of the five chosen applicants out of 26. I was so happy at that time and went home praising God. For me it is the greatest gift and blessing God has given me and to my family. I would like to praise and thank God for everything and also I would like to thank Mother Francisca. I know she prayed for me too and all the saints I asked to pray for me. Please pray for me in my studies...

God bless you all and thank you!
