From Night Terrors to Healing Prayers (Family Rosary Across America)

Kim from Harlem, Georgia, called Family Rosary Across America with both a heavy heart and a grateful one. She asked Fr. Rocky and the Relevant Radio family to pray for her brother, Jonathan, who recently learned he has a mass on his kidney. Because doctors cannot safely biopsy it, they are recommending removing the kidney. Kim’s prayer was simple and full of faith: that God would completely heal Jonathan and “that the mass would just dissolve back to where it came from.”

But Kim also shared a beautiful praise report. Months earlier, her granddaughter Gwendolyn had struggled with severe night terrors. After the Relevant Radio family prayed for her, everything changed. “Since that time, she has had no night terrors,” Kim said joyfully.

Fr. Rocky remembered the call well and thanked listeners, including “Pete the dentist” and even a prisoner who had been praying for Gwendolyn. “Thanks be to God,” he said.

In one short call, listeners witnessed both the burden of suffering and the power of faithful prayer. It was a reminder that no intention is too small, and no prayer is ever wasted.
