Please pray for Sub deacon Cyril,
He is a young father of three small children here in Yokohama who contracted lukimea some time ago. I saw him recently and he looked pretty bad. It was the first time he came to church in a long time, being in the hospital. His beautiful children cried throughout the service evertime they looked at their father in his weakened state. He does a lot of work for the Japanese Orhthodox church and runs one of the main websites for information on Orthodoxy in Japan. Unless you read Japanese you won' be able to view it but if you would like to brows anyway, please take a look.
