Dr. Liz - Hi, Marge!
Marge - Ever hear the one about the 2 priests who died and met at the pearly gates at the same time?
Marge - Hi Liz!
Dr. Liz - Nope.
Dr. Liz - What happened?
Marge - Well, when they got there, St. Peter said to God, "what do we do with these guys? Our computer is down!"
Marge - God said, let them go back for a couple of weeks til the computer is back up and running, but they can't go back as humans, ... they can go back as anything else.
Dr. Liz - <grin> "a couple of weeks 'til the computer is back up", eh? LOL!
Dr. Liz - And they chose ... ?
Marge - One priest said, ... I've always wanted to be a hawk soaring above the mountains. God said, way you go!
Marge - The other priest said, ... ahmmmm, will it be held against me if I go back as ahmmm? Nope, the computer's down, so nothing will be recorded.
Marge - Well, he said, ... I've always wanted to be a stud! And God said, way you go!
Dr. Liz - A stud? As in a dog or a horse or ... ?
Dr. Liz - Or as in a nail?
Marge - Couple of weeks later St. Peter said to God, the computer's up and running, we'd better get those two guys back.
Marge - God said, well one of them will be easy to find as he's a hawk soaring above the mountains.
Dr. Liz - <grin> ... I can barely wait ...
Marge - But the other might be quite hard to find, because he's a stud in somebody's winter tire in Ontario, Canada!
Dr. Liz - LOL LOL LOL
Marge - Do you use studded tires in the US? LOL, LOL, LOL
Dr. Liz - We used to. Now most jurisdictions don't allow them 'cause they tear up the roads.
Dr. Liz - I have a joke I just heard ...
Marge - good!
Dr. Liz - Billy Graham, quite old now, is about to be driven in a chauffered limosine to his next location.
Dr. Liz - He addresses the limo driver and says, "You know, all these years, I've always wanted to drive a limo, but I never have. Would you mind if just this once, I do the driving?"
Dr. Liz - Well, the limo driver, what's he going to do, say no? So of course he says, "Yes!"
Dr. Liz - And Billy Graham starts driving.
Dr. Liz - And he gets heavy with his foot and he starts speeding.
Dr. Liz - Like, really speeding.
Marge - This is going to be good, I can tell!
Dr. Liz - And he gets the attention of a state police officer who is in patrol for that highway.
Dr. Liz - The police offer pulls over the limousine. Billy Graham puts the window down.
Dr. Liz - The rookie officer gulps, excuses himself, and says he'll be right back.
Dr. Liz - He goes to his patrol car and calls in to his supervisor.
Dr. Liz - His supervisor says, "What's up?"
Dr. Liz - He replies, "You know how we're taught to be careful with celebrities or notables? That we're not just supposed to ticket them outright?"
Dr. Liz - "Yes, of course," his supervisor says.
Dr. Liz - "Well, I've pulled someone over for speeding that I think we better think long and hard about before ticketing."
Dr. Liz - "Who is it, the Governor?"
Dr. Liz - "No, higher than that."
Dr. Liz - "Good grief, you didn't pull over the President, did you?"
Dr. Liz - <deep sigh>. "No, sir, even higher than that!"
Marge - I'm laughing already
Dr. Liz - "Higher than that? Who on earth could be higher than that?"
Dr. Liz - "Well, sir, I think it might actually be Jesus, 'cause Billy Graham's His driver."
Marge - LOL, LOL, LOL That's a good one!!!!!
Dr. Liz - Isn't that adorable?
Dr. Liz - I just got it in an email in the last day or two.
Marge - Oh, it sure is! That'll make 2 that I'll be able to tell now, LOL
Dr. Liz - <grin> Gee, that's right, me, too, now I have 2 jokes to tell!!!!
Dr. Liz - A few minutes ago I only had one! LOL LOL LOL!

Marge - LOL, me too!
Marge - Well, RT said wrote me that she'd be joining us. Wonder where everybody else is?
Marge - yes, and hopefully many more send prayers when they receive the announcement for the Chat'N'Pray
GirlyGirls - logged on. - from . using Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; AOL 9.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; Media Center PC 3.1) on Thu Mar 22 9:25pm ET)
GirlyGirls - Hi!
Marge - Hi GG!
GirlyGirls - (Sorry I didn't get the other together Liz -- for next time then -- time not being there what it is here, you know : - )
Dr. Liz - Hi, GG! I was just about to ask Marge, so I’ll ask you , too, since there are only the few of us “on” tonight, if maybe a change is needed for the Chat’N’Pray format? I’ve been facilitating them in one form or another for almost 10 years now. Or … are they even needed still … what do you feel? Or maybe just the “Chat” portion but not necessarily the “Prayer” portion”? Or … ?????
GirlyGirls - Hiya, Dr. Liz
Marge - I really love the get-together, ... but what I really like the most is the prayers, and being able to send in prayers for people. animals and situations
Dr. Liz - And then just have a Chat instead of a Chat'N'Pray.
GirlyGirls - I'm with Marge. . . so important and so powerful.
Marge - I wonder how many people would come on just to do the prayers?
GirlyGirls - Or, if the frequency is burdensome Liz.. .is that part of it for you?
Dr. Liz - That was one option that occurred to me, Marge, yes, to do just that, Marge, get together to pray, and chat afterwards. Except I did that at first, many years ago, I mean, we prayed first ... and people got the "timing" and only a few signed on for the prayer portion, and the rest signed on after they "knew" or "sensed" we were "done" with the prayers and had started the chat itself.
Marge - interesting
Dr. Liz - GG, I feel to explore the format to see what presents about possibly improving it and/or its energy. Or may be the energy is just fine and it’s just that a lot of people don’t join in directly!
Dr. Liz - Or maybe it IS time to move on to something else. <grin>. Except I don't know what! LOL!
GirlyGirls - Well, another thought might be to start with 1/2 hour of some topic/idea/insight/instruction -- hard core timing. Then to prayer and petition for the next 20 minutes or so. Then those who want to stay on and chat -- optional. But I imagine you would feel obligated to continue with the group, since what happens is a reflection on your work, your site.
Dr. Liz - I do like the idea of having a venue to pray for animals and people and situations who might not otherwise have the benefit of our combined prayers.
GirlyGirls - Yes.
Marge - GG, or maybe not leave the option to stay on and chat, ... but to end it after the prayers ... total time 1 hr.
Dr. Liz - GG, yes, I would. Marge, yes, that’s a possibility, too.
Marge - Liz, I definitely like the idea of having a venue as you've just described
Dr. Liz - Another part of this that is an opening for a better idea is, it takes me about 2 hours to open, read, bless, and place into the Basket, all the petitions we receive each time.
GirlyGirls - Frankly, I've wondered about the time for that -- especially always graciously responding which is again important as far as who you are and how you interact.
Marge - wow, that's a lot of time!
GirlyGirls - Is there any of this that you can delegate?
Dr. Liz - GG, I tried that once. I found I had to open them all anyway, because frequently there is a private message or private petition to me in the prayer emails.
GirlyGirls - Understood
Marge - Liz, does the 2 hours include replying back to the sender?
Dr. Liz - And then afterwards, when I can get to it, it takes a minimum of 25 minutes to edit the Chat’N’Pray transcripts into a format that can be put up on the web-site and prepare the notification that the chat Transcripts are available.
GirlyGirls - Another idea is, a monthly chat, and a place on the website for people to write in their petitions. It would have to be edited somehow, I guess, and maybe that is every bit as time consuming. . .don't know
Dr. Liz - Marge, yes, it does.
Marge - I just know that the prayers are in the healing basket of blessings when I send them... I'd be ok without a reply, as I'd hope others would be.
Dr. Liz - GG, I looked into that and ran into the same problem, that a spot on the web-site would still have to be edited.
GirlyGirls - I agree, Marge.
Dr. Liz - That would save some time, if I didn't respond to each one.
Dr. Liz - Do you feel it would be as effective for people?
Marge - Liz, that's over 4 hours every second Thurs. of you giving of your time.
GirlyGirls - Well, public chat once a month, and private prayer and meditation time for petitions received twice a month, or once a week. Folks can sign on to be a part of the collective prayer in a personal space.
Dr. Liz - Marge, it's 2 hours or so for the Chat'N'Pray, 2 hours to collect and open and bless and store into the basket, the prayers, and another 45 minutes to edit the transcripts and get the notices out.
GirlyGirls - In the short run then, just put it in the announcement email, sorry, but there are so many received. We all know that even if there is a glitch with the email, the angels will deliver the intention to the basket. At least I always think that way.
Marge - Yes, I can see that.
Marge - I do too GG.
GirlyGirls - Just a thank you, and your acknowledgement may be physically intangible, but the grace will be offered even so.
Dr. Liz - GG, I put that into the announcement, I just still open them, so "I" am part of the problem! LOL LOL LOL!
Dr. Liz - I have this feeling that people want to know for sure that their prayer request has been received.
Dr. Liz - And if I reply, then they'll know for sure! :)
GirlyGirls - Geez, Liz, even when I am travelling, or working, and overwhelmed, I know if I THINK my intentions into the basket, and pray with you all from wherever, it's just as good!!!
Marge - Liz, I think people should feel confident enough by now to KNOW that their request has been received.
GirlyGirls - I DO understand Liz, folks want to let you know what is going on, and there is no doubt that part of you that CARES to know
GirlyGirls - Liz, if you would achieve sainthood, you could bilocate, and that would solve some of the problem.
Dr. Liz - GG, LOL LOL LOL! GG, yes, I know that the intentions are enough. I like to feel that everyone who emails prayer requests in knows that, too.
Marge - LOL, LOL GG
GirlyGirls - Well, it's a thought. . . : - )
GirlyGirls - We could probably come up with at LEAST three miracles through the Angel Wonders Power Team
Marge - GG ... except I think Liz has already achieved sainthood! She has been referred to as a saint by many!
Dr. Liz - GG, yes, that IS a part of it, I like knowing what is going on with "my" people and "my" animals! And opening the prayers and reading and blessing each one upon receipt, and then replying, is a part of that for me.
Dr. Liz - Which is why I'm still doing it this way, after all these years!
Dr. Liz - <sheepish grin> Hey, guys, I'm no saint! LOL!

GirlyGirls - I don't know Liz, do you want that crown yet? Comes with a lot of responsibility . : - )
GirlyGirls - Oh, So Marge and I have to put YOU through a healing/detachment process this week, huh?
Dr. Liz - I'm far too human to be a saint! LOL!
Dr. Liz - GG, Marge, LOL LOL, maybe so! LOL!
Marge - OK Liz ... so maybe that's the part that needs to be kept on ... at least for now. But how about letting go of the people needing to know for sure ... and being convinced in your mind and in all of our minds that they don't need a response, because they'll know the prayers are in the basket!
Marge - GG, LOL, LOL ... perfect!
Dr. Liz - That would reclaim some time ... it could work, Marge …
GirlyGirls - Please be assured your intention has been received. . .and we can help, those of us who know, by having a prayer we say to your angels that oversee your communications to kindly assist in delivery of all intentions.
Marge - Secondly, I liked the first part of GG's suggestion about a 1/2 topic, then the prayers and ending it there ... say a total of 1 hour???
Dr. Liz - GG, you write things so beautifully!
Marge - ditto Liz! You do so, GG
Dr. Liz - Yes, maybe having the Chat'N'Prays be one hour is good ...
GirlyGirls - Catholic school, Liz : - ) all started with those little circles in penmanship -- the boredom ignited my imagination for REAL writing! : - )
Marge - Liz ... if the prayers were to go directly into the basket of blessings, and you wouldn't see them, would that change anything?
GirlyGirls - Gosh, Liz, it's rarely only two hours!! I've wondered long have you've done it!
Marge - GG... 10 years!
GirlyGirls - I don't think so. Liz, I know you will take heart time and what needs to come to your personal attention, will. You can simply offer that petition for yourself.
Dr. Liz - That would mean I wouldn't be seeing or opening the prayers myself. People would type them in themselves.
Marge - hmm, well Liz ... may I ask you this? ... do you have to edit any of them?
GirlyGirls - Liz, your heart only needs to be open to what is submitted. It's not about human senses anyway. . .transcendent. . . let's go there.
Dr. Liz - I don't know, Marge, GG, would it change anything if I didn't personally see each person's prayer?
Marge - ... I mean couldn't you pray for them and bless them without reading them?
Dr. Liz - GG, Marge, sometimes I feel that all people need is a little attention from/through "me", including the response from "me", and then they feel better. Yes, I certainly can and do bless them … and definitely could bless them without reading them …
GirlyGirls - Again, I don't think it would change anything Liz. You'll have a little trouble with the disconnect for a while. . but maybe it will open you to something else. . .you know how that is.
Dr. Liz - Marge, yes, I could.
Dr. Liz - GG, yes, I would have trouble with the disconnect.
Marge - My dear Liz, we all need you and your love and blessings, ... but we also all need to respect your time a little more ... therefore, we should feel better just submitting them ... no need for the response, I'd say
GirlyGirls - Well, Yes, Liz, that is so, as it is with all healers. Like when someone touched the hem of Jesus' robe and he felt the power go forth from Him -- and turned to see who had touched him. I believe there is always that energy with healers. you speak to them, and something comes forth from them to you.
GirlyGirls - I was referring to previous comment about folks needing the attention
GirlyGirls - From Healers to Heal-ee, see the writing is failing now LOL!!
Dr. Liz - GG, yes. How can I give people the feeling of individual attention then, if I'm not opening or seeing or responding to, the prayers?
GirlyGirls - But I believe you have the power of prayer to do so without everyone touching your robe for reassurance, you know?
Marge - Well Liz, ... have you ever taken a poll (spelling?) of how many people actually need a reply?
Dr. Liz - GG, the thought occurred, maybe I need to drop the feeling that people need the reassurance. There’s certainly something there for ME … because I’m still doing it!
GirlyGirls - I get what you are saying. There are many different levels in the folks you are dealing with, and I understand what you are saying about their connection to you, etc.
Marge - Liz, that would be my thinking
Dr. Liz - Marge, I know people deeply appreciate it, because several dozen write back and thank me for letting them know that their prayers are in the Basket. It seems to make such a difference for people. And I can tell they are “higher” energetically as a result. I like helping people get to that higher place.
GirlyGirls - Yes, Liz. You are the conduit anyway, the work is God's.
GirlyGirls - Let God handle the reassurance part.
Marge - But Liz, have you ever actually asked them if they'd be ok with not receiving a reply?
GirlyGirls - Oh that IS tough Liz.
Dr. Liz - <grin> The HEALING work is God's, the PHYSICAL work right now appears to be MINE! LOL LOL LOL!
Liz2 - logged on. - from . using Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98) on Thu Mar 22 9:58pm ET)
Marge - I agree with GG, ... let God handle the reassurance part
Dr. Liz - Hi, Liz2!
GirlyGirls - Ohh, Marge, good point. If you would like a response click here. Or let's have God come up with the answer to the riddle here. We don't have to discover it tonight.
Marge - Hi Liz2
GirlyGirls - Hi, Liz2
Liz2 - Hi, Dr Liz. Glad to finally be here! :)
Dr. Liz - So to recap, if I had something on the web-site, and people submitted their prayers there, and then we gathered to Chat and Pray for one hour, would that work for people, do you think?
GirlyGirls - LOL, Liz. . .we ARE the worker bees f
GirlyGirls - bees. period.
Dr. Liz - Perhaps with 1/2 hour of a prepared topic, and t hen the prayers?
Marge - GG, I mean actually tell you will not be responding, ... would they be okay with that
Dr. Liz - Liz2, we're in a discussion of if or how to change the way the Chat'N'Prays unfold ...
Marge - I'd be ok with that Liz.
Liz2 - Isn't that sort of how you used to do it a few years back Dr. Liz?
Dr. Liz - I asked for help with ideas, for a couple of reasons. One reason is, it takes me about 2 hours minimum each time to open and respond to the emails.
GirlyGirls - I understand how it is a little tricky. Because it is also a connection, affirmation between the folks in the world community and Liz and what Liz does.
Dr. Liz - Liz2, I've always opened and read the emails and replied and stored them personally into the Basket of Blessings.
Marge - Liz2 .... about 5 hours in total
Dr. Liz - GG, yes, there is an aspect of confirmation and validation for "me" and the work I do, that also comes from this.
Liz2 - Holy cow....
Dr. Liz - GG, I think that's why I'm still doing it. There's a part of me that needs and wants the validation that I'm on the "right" track!
Marge - Liz2 ... I'm trying to convince Liz that she shouldn't have to send a reply to people saying that their prayers have been received, etc.
GirlyGirls - Okay, Liz. You can do a 5 minute meditation where you see all of the intentions, and you flood them with your love and your light, turn them into beams of light, or make them a burnt offering to heaven, etc., and I'll feel, if you tell me this is what you've done, that I've had a personal response!!!
Marge - I would too, GG!
GirlyGirls - Liz, re confirmation and validation -- absolutely, you should have that. . .but I'm feeling things are going to open up in a way we cannot predict right now.
Dr. Liz - Liz2 ... so the ideas that are coming forth tonight are, to have a place on the web-site where people can enter the prayers, instead of replying to me directly by email.
Rosie Tara - logged on. - from . using Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1) on Thu Mar 22 10:05pm ET)
Marge - ... they should Know they've been received!
Rosie Tara - Hi everybody
Dr. Liz - And then our getting together for an hour, with 1/2 hour as a "topic", and the remaining few minutes for the prayer session.
Dr. Liz - Hi, RT!
Liz2 - Do you feel an auto reply too impersonal?

Dr. Liz – Liz2, I have felt it too impersonal, yes. But perhaps it’s a good thing to do.
Marge - Hi RT! Glad to see you!
Rosie Tara - Am I to late?
Marge - not at all!
GirlyGirls - You could have a place on the web site you refer to -- a Gratitude blog - for prayers answered.
Dr. Liz - RT, no, not at all! Please share your opinions on our current discussion ... :)
GirlyGirls - Liz2, there's a good thought.
Dr. Liz - GG, monitoring that would be time consuming.
Rosie Tara - I thought already of daylight saving
Liz2 - I think anyone who knows you knows their prayers will not go unseen nor unprayed for (is that a word) but then at least you would be "responding"
GirlyGirls - Hey, RosieTara. . .good to "see" you
GirlyGirls - Well there's something to delegate, then, Liz.
Marge - no, not a good idea to make anything any more time consuming than it is.
Rosie Tara - Liz, what are you talking about?
GirlyGirls - I might even volunteer. OR why shouldn't you have a little volunteer army to have certain weeks to do certain things. Gosh, I do the readings at daily mass for a week, every six weeks. Doable.
Dr. Liz - Well, what if people signed onto the web-site, put their prayer requests in, and then clicked on a "continue" button that brought them to another page that tells them their prayers are in the Basket?
Liz2 - That would be good.
GirlyGirls - Like that Liz. . .still doesn't solve your attachment to knowing what's happening. That would be hard for me, too.
Marge - that's a good idea Liz,
Dr. Liz - GG, it would mean I don't “know” what's happening! LOL!
Dr. Liz - It would also mean I would miss the beautiful "Thank you for your work" messages I am truly touched by receiving. Such messages warm my heart. J It’s nourishing for me.
Rosie Tara - Hm...I really don't know what to say....as long everybody feels okay with it...it should be fine
Marge - Well GG, that would save some time anyway. Then if we cut back to 1 hr. Overall, the most important part would still remain, right?
GirlyGirls - Oh, Gosh, Liz, I'm LingOL!! I know, torture for folks like us!!
Liz2 - You could still hand pick a certain portion of them to respond to individually.

Dr. Liz – Liz2, that works. I do receive “knowings” even before I open the emails as to how “serious” a particular situation is.

GirlyGirls - Hmmm, you would miss the messages, wouldn't you. And you SHOULD have them. It's nourishment for the work, that gratitude. And it's okay that it is so!
Marge - 1. you'd still be opening the prayrs 2.
Rosie Tara - Would it make your life easier, Liz?
Marge - 2. we'd still be getting together to pray.
Dr. Liz - Liz2, if they go to the web-site, I won't even see them.
Liz2 - Oh....I see how this is an issue then. I thought you would still be able to pick a few out....hmmmm
Marge - Where would the time saving be? 1. no replies to people 2. 1 hr instead of 2 hrs. evey end Thurs.
Rosie Tara - Hmmm
Dr. Liz - Marge, it would save about 2 hours at least.
Marge - Liz, I can see you need to keep opening the prayers, as you have been doing, ... at least for now.
GirlyGirls - Start there, if it is enough, Liz. With the commitment to yourself to see what other ideas open up to save more time and still touch as many lives.
Liz2 - How about alternating between the direct basket route and how it is done today.....
Dr. Liz - The primary issue then would be ME because I would be letting go of knowing exactly what's going on with people ! And also, people wouldn't have direct contact with me any more in this way ...
Marge - This is my suggestion. 5 hours down to 2 1/2 hrs.
Marge - No, no Liz. You'd continue to open the prayers. You just wouldn't be sending replies that they've been received.
Rosie Tara - Liz, I like the feeling writing to YOU when I write my requests
Dr. Liz - RT, thank you for sharing that, your feeling is exactly and precisely the feeling I get from many others, too ... that it makes a difference to people to know they're emailing me and that they feel better just knowing that.
GirlyGirls - Liz, even Jesus slipped away through the crowd and went off to be by himself in the desert -- it IS important to find a way to rest your spirit. You will become too drained to do the work -- and what good is that?
Marge - RT ... as would many of us, I'm sure. However, RT, ... do you feel you need a reply saying your prayer requests have been received?
Dr. Liz - So, RT, if I didn't reply personally to you, when you write in your Chat'N'Pray petitions, would you be okay with that?
Rosie Tara - Of course ! If I knew that is the normal procedure...:)
GirlyGirls - Liz, do you want a sabbatical from this venue? Or just a new way to do it. Actually, I think you'd miss the teaching and global interaction!!
Dr. Liz - How do you all feel about possibly having a page on the web-site that you would go to, to enter your prayers directly there?
Dr. Liz - GG, just a new way of doing it or a modification that might take me less time..
GirlyGirls - Works for me.
Rosie Tara - Hold on....but you still would get the requests ,or?
Liz2 - Im ok with that
GirlyGirls - I would just be sad to lose the ChatNPray. It would be like when the diocese closes a parish church.
GirlyGirls - So, the rest, I can easily live with, you see!
Marge - RT ... did you know that that takes Liz about another hour to do these replies? (She spends about 5 hours in total doing all this) . We're trying to figure a way out to cut down on the time. I say, she should only open the requests and pray and put them in the basket of blessings, ... but not spend time sending replies too.
Dr. Liz - RT, the idea would be, in the Chat'N'Pray announcements, there would be a web-link people would click on. This link would take them to a page on my web-site, where they would enter their prayers. And when entered, they would be taken to a page where the fact that their prayers have been entered, is acknowledged.
Rosie Tara - I would perceive it as a kind of "not personal" enough
Liz2 - Could you set the page up so it goes to an acceptance page after receiving the prayer....but it would generate a list of who, where and what the prayer is for - that could be posted elsewhere for review before the chat and pray by everyone?
Dr. Liz - Liz2, some of the prayers are so personal ...
GirlyGirls - WOW! Liz2!! Cool. . .except, some may feel it is too personal to have exposed that way. . but they could opt!
Marge - GG ... great to have th Chat'N'Pray, but how many people come on consistently?
Rosie Tara - GG right
GirlyGirls - Sheesh! Marge, I only missed a couple!! LOL!!
Liz2 - gg exactly...a check box on the prayer site could manage that.
Liz2 - :( guilty....been away WAY too long.....
Dr. Liz - We have about six to 8 people who try to come as often a they can.
Marge - many prayers are too personal for this
Rosie Tara - I agree, Marge
Dr. Liz - Marge, GG, RT, DZP (don't know where she is tonight!), a few others.
Marge - GG .... ahmmmmmmmm, LOL
GirlyGirls - Read back, Marge, there would be a check box , yea or nay
Dr. Liz - What I know about the people who DO come, is, they feel connected and centered again, and it helps them in their upcoming week*s.
GirlyGirls - ABSOLUTELY!!!
Marge - It's part of my spiritual practice, Liz
Dr. Liz - <grin> Remember when I used to type in all the names from all the petitions? Wow, that took a loooooong time!
Dr. Liz - That was years ago! LOL!
Rosie Tara - Yes !!Liz!!!
Dr. Liz - We used to pray individually for EACH animal and EACH person and EACH situation that we received a prayer petition for! LOL!
Marge - Liz, time management is important in everyone's life.
Rosie Tara - Same here, Marge
Dr. Liz - Until it got into the hundreds ...
Dr. Liz - And I used to get cramped fingers typing all of it in .... LOL!
Rosie Tara - WOW!
Dr. Liz - TOOO funnym now, when I think of it!
Marge - So, what's the consensus here tonight?
Dr. Liz - Yes, please, summarize what anyone thinks we're saying! LOL!
Rosie Tara - If Liz is happy... we all are happy
Dr. Liz - Now we get about 800 individual requests every 2 weeks.
Dr. Liz - RT, aawwwwww ..... :) :) :)
GirlyGirls - Personally, I'd be heartbroken to lose ESPECIALLY the prayer part of the chat. I don't need it to be a two hour thing, it's nice, but not necessary, and I get tired anyway. BUT, LIZ MUST do what she is called to do or NOT do. God willing and nobody gets in the way, as my brother says.
Rosie Tara - Liz, you have to do the work and spent your time ...you decide , please
Dr. Liz - GG, I like the prayer part, too. :)
Dr. Liz - Well, let's all pray NOW ... <grin> ...
Dr. Liz - Since we know we all like this part ... :)
Dr. Liz - Everyone ready?
GirlyGirls - I've got several important petitions for prayer tonight. . .
Marge - GG ... I agree with the prayer part of the chat, I'd not want to lose that either. I'm ok with 1 hr. instead of 2. I DO think Liz would want to continue with opening the prayers.
GirlyGirls - I'm ready.
Liz2 - yup
Rosie Tara - ready
Marge - ready
Dr. Liz - Please take a moment now, and key into the Chat Room, whatever is your chosen Name *or No Name* for the Divine.
Dr. Liz - God
GirlyGirls - Jesus
Marge - Holy Spirit
Rosie Tara - dear God
Liz2 - Mother Goddess
Dr. Liz - God, Jesus, Holy Spirit, Dear God, Mother Goddess, we call on you now.
Dr. Liz - We know that you are in us, and we are in you, and this fills us with joy and delight and gratitude.

GirlyGirls - For Father Kevin Trautner, a great friend to animals and people, a devout and loving priest, and friend to many, that he continue to be a powerful intercessor for the animals and people he loved so well in this life, now that he has transitioned to a new life with God
Rosie Tara - Liz, how terrible...prayers for the boy and the rottweilers
Dr. Liz - For the many hundreds of animals who have died because of contaminated foods, may ways of testing the safety of foods present OR may people be guided to healthy food choices comprising organic choices.
GirlyGirls - For Fr. Trautner's parishioners and friends and especially for Assunta Rose and Francesco, his beloved cats, that they heal their grief and be filled with Grace to mend their hearts.
Dr. Liz - RT, the rotties were put down.
Dr. Liz - I knew them, they weren't vicious dogs, they had a very unstable and mentally "off" human. :(
Rosie Tara - Oh no !
Marge - Liz, to repeat your beautiful prayer from our last Chat'N'Pray, and with thanks to GG , I believe for the wording initially ... "That the Intentions written deeply in our Hearts be made manifest!"
Dr. Liz - GG, has someone taken in Fr. Trautner's cats?
GirlyGirls - For me, healing from infections skin ailment, NOW (I'm dating a sweet guy and can't kiss him) AMEN!!
Rosie Tara - What about the owner ? Rottweilers mirror their owners
GirlyGirls - I don't know Liz. They may have gone to Francisvale. I will find out this weekend. Weather prevented me from attending the funeral.
Dr. Liz - GG, Tea Tree oil is great at healing skin infections.
Dr. Liz - GG, so is colloidal silver.
GirlyGirls - That kept it contained for a while, but it's tough. Thanks Liz, I'll try the colloidal silver.
Rosie Tara - GG LOL
Dr. Liz - RT, yes, the owner is very unstable and mentally "off". But in the U.S., the owners aren't put down, the dogs are. The sad part is I’ll bet in a very short while, he’ll have two more Rotties to mess up.
Rosie Tara - LIZ !!!!
GirlyGirls - For me again, that the numbness in my lower extremities and that my spineand nerves be completely healthy and strong and without inflammation. Amen. Amen.
Marge - same in Canada, ... how unfortunate! LOL
GirlyGirls - Yes, Liz, how true.
Rosie Tara - One should test people before they are allowed to take animals in....!
Dr. Liz - GG, if it's at all like a herpes simplex outbreak, then Pau D'Arco can be helpful, too.
Dr. Liz - RT, some organizations to. Most don't.
GirlyGirls - I meant the numbness in my lower extremities be healed.
Liz2 - RT...too true!!
GirlyGirls - I'm wondering if that's it. I've never had a cold sore in my life. NOt even Chicken Pox
GirlyGirls - But the stress post accident has been intense.
Dr. Liz - GG, I was suggesting the Pau D'Arco for the skin infection.
Rosie Tara - Same here in Australia; Liz
Dr. Liz - GG, it senses as that.
GirlyGirls - Yes, I got that Liz, funny you mentioned herpes, cuz I'm starting to wonder if that is what it is, despite almost 50 yrs. without it!
GirlyGirls - As herpes simplex?
Dr. Liz - Well, herpes simplex if frequently a stress related outbreak that comes from a stress-weakened immune system.
Dr. Liz - oops. "is" frequently, not "if" frequently.
GirlyGirls - Yes, and I had been put on a steroidal inhaler previous to that for the first time for some intense attackes, and I think THAT is what knocked out my immune system.
Dr. Liz - GG, yes.
Dr. Liz - Steroids attack the liver which weakens the immune system.
GirlyGirls - Liz, why would it be that someone who I know for a long time, who is in a very difficult period and I promised to pray for him, I cannot suddenly remember his name. . his wife's his child's not his! Something asmiss I think.
GirlyGirls - Anyway, for him and his intentions in Conshohocken, PA
Dr. Liz - Well, just key in "my friend" ... no name necessary, God knows who you mean!
Dr. Liz - For me, that this period of feeling I need to change something, be handled in Grace and Perfect Ways! LOL LOL LOL!
Marge - GG ... you're far too young for a 'seniors moment', LOL
GirlyGirls - Know, it's strange Marge, something else to it that that. . .nonethe less. . .AMen for my friend.
GirlyGirls - Amen, LIZ>
Marge - I'll second that, Liz!
GirlyGirls - For Rich DiCerio, who died last week, a master gardener, for strength and grace during his transition.
Marge - actually GG, being under stress can cause those kinds of lapses, I think
Rosie Tara - Liz, I am reading a book about life cycles.....30 years cycles are very important...I go throught the same feelings...LOL
GirlyGirls - For the DiCerio family, especially Joan, Daria and Westy P., for understanding of their path of grief. Amen
GirlyGirls - Oh, Marge. True.
Dr. Liz - RT, what does "30 years cycles" mean?
GirlyGirls - For Pinky, that she have fun showing off her "new" self to Fr. Kevin, and that her light continue to shine for Fannie and me.
Rosie Tara - All 7 years the human life goes through changes.....but every 30 year you make major changes and/or experience cahenges from the outside
GirlyGirls - For Tim S., for protection of health, strength, and wisdom from the Divine. Amen.
GirlyGirls - For all of the intentions written on my heart.
Marge - interesting, RT!
Rosie Tara - It is agood book "The veiled pulse of time" William Bryant
Rosie Tara - Very interesting , Marge
Dr. Liz - RT, I didn't experience major changes from the outside at 30, I experienced them at 29 ... anxiety, perhaps, quickened the pace? LOL!!!
