I don't know who this is, but my mother forwarded me this prayer request - and so I want to forward it to all you. He really has faith (it seems) in the power of prayer. Lets all try to remember him. Thank you.

---This is a prayer request from a guy that works at First Union Bank in Charlotte, NC. Everyone please pray for his wife.

My name is Gary Hogan, Some of you receiving know me, some do not. My wife, Cindy, is 32 years old and has just been diagnosed 3 days ago with stage 4 cervical cancer and her chances for survival are very slim.

She was pregnant with our second child and had miscarried at 5 months and now we know why.

This is a request for you to forward this email to everyone you know asking for prayer. The more people that pray for her to be healed the better. Pray and forward. It only takes a second to hit forward. Please, your prayer will save her life. Please pray and ask everyone you know to pray for the HEALING of Cindy, removal of all cancer in her body so she may enjoy all that life has to offer, and to continue to be the wonderful mother to our 5 year old son, Michael.

The power of Prayer is unsurpassed, unsurpassed. I want the whole world to have her in their prayers the next few weeks. God will hear our cry. Please do not be offended by my plea. This is only a request for your help. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading this and helping with our request for healing. No words can express how much power we have when we do a little extra to come together.

Regards, Cindy's in-love husband. Gary Thank you, and send it to the far reaches of our world. ----

Prayer is powerful, but praying for people who don't exist wastes God's time. http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/bl_gary_hogan.htm http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/bl_gary_hogan_2.htm

1. Prayer is never wasted.

2. God exists outside of time.
