#LOL: Franciscan Friars Say Text Us Your Prayers

WTH?

Not sure how I feel about this... On one hand, there should be nothing wrong with updating the church and utilizing technology to reach more hearts. On the other, the picture above just seems a wee bit weird! 

Right?

So basically, those in need of a prayer can text their request to 306-44. Respond to the welcome message with your prayer and you'll receive a confirmation stating that your prayer has been received and will be prayed for. 

Now that I really think about it, this is a fantastic way for those disenfranchised by church to still reach out and have an anointed one send prayers up. Of course, you can pray on your own. 

But really? 

You're going to turn down the professional? 

That's cute.

The service is free and the Franciscan Friars released the following statement:

"We are very pleased to ring in 2013 with our new Text a Prayer Intention to a Franciscan Friar program," said Father David Convertino , Executive Director of Development for the Franciscan Friars of Holy Name Province. "With technology changing the way we communicate, we needed to offer people an updated way to ask for prayers for special intentions and needs either for themselves or others. We have been working on this for some time and it's a great way to bring in the New Year.  If the pope can tweet, friars can text!

Damn, the pope is tweeting? It's new day. 

What do you think about the Text a Prayer Intention to a Franciscan Friar program? Will you use it?

#LOL: Whisky Restores Eyesight of Man Blinded by Vodka

Step away from the bottle.

A New Zealand man lost his eyesight after mixing vodka with his diabetes medicine. (Scary, no?) The deadly mix turned into methanol poisoning and causes formaldehyde to build up in his system, leading to loss of sight.

To prevent the methanol from further metabolizing into formaldehyde, doctors administered ethanol through Duthie's gastro-intestinal tract, but there was only so much in stock.

After the supply ran dry, a staff member was sent to a nearby liquor store to purchase a bottle of top-shelf whisky: Johnnie Walker Black.

"I thought it was pretty bloody good," Duthie told the Herald, referring to the doctors' unconventional cure. "I'm alive. The hospital was absolutely awesome. Couldn't have been better."

LOL at his response. I bet!
