My father is almost completely deaf. His eyes are beginning to fail him too. He recently made a statement that life wasn't worth living. The irony is that he used to love music. And his greatest joy was to read. He was a chemical engineer. A scientist, and an avid reader.

We want to teach him Braille, but it may be too late even for that.

Slowly, he's losing touch with the outside world. And chances to minister to him spiritually are closing off at a rapid pace. He still holds to the faith of atheism. But ironically enough he is terrified of hell. Some of you may not believe in Christ. But I can tell you he is a real person. Please pray that my father will receive him before he passes on. He will be much happier... he is not happy now. I know what of I speak. He used to go into an empty church and cry out to Jesus. He had a horrible life at home. His mother beat the Bible into him. And then was alternately a raving atheist. She wanted him to be a priest. But he ran away from home before that would happen and turned to atheistic science. But part of him still believes. Please pray.

Thanks!
