UPDATE: Thanks to your many prayers, Fr. Altman is being released from the hospital today and will be returning to his parish on Tuesday.
Fr. James Altman is a priest of the diocese of La Crosse, Wisconsin. We have featured a number of his homilies on our blog. This holy, courageous priest needs our prayers. On Sunday evening, Fr. Altman was feeling quite ill and went to the emergency room. Fr. Altman suffered a major heart attack last year and he has also suffered with chronic bronchitis for many years. Please pray for his health and for the medical team that’s tending to him.
