Nancy from Chicago called the Family Rosary Across America with prayers for her cousin Jim, who has pancreatic cancer, and for her son, Jacob, on his birthday.

Father Rocky remembered Jacob from the Walk to Mary, where his mother helped push him in a wheelchair. Nancy shared the hopeful news that Jacob’s talking is getting better. “We’ve been praying for it,” Father Rocky said.

Then came a birthday surprise. Father Rocky sang “Happy Birthday” to Jacob, who thanked him. Even Jacob’s dog, Tenor, joined in. Nancy said Tenor prays the Rosary with them, prompting Father Rocky to joke, “All right, Tenor, wag your tail.”

It was a joyful reminder of the love, prayer, and community that unite the Relevant Radio family.
