*BRO. JOSEPH- As of 3 pm Jun 25: there has been some improvement in his responsiveness but he is not able to converse.  He continues to heal from the bone fractures.  Feel free to visit him at Sacred Hospital.  Interaction with visitors betters his chances of recovery.  He is in Room 834.  If he is moved ask for Dale Nix.  Please continue to keep him in your fervent prayers.  Your concern for him is much appreciated.  Thank you and may God bless you.
