Nicole is requesting prayer for special needs.
Pastor JR sent us this urgent prayer request concerning himself: “Just reporting that I am fighting for my life in the Upstate University Hospital in Syracuse. After a near death experience, I need a lot of prayer.“
Heidi is Larry and Ruth Muxworthy’s daughter-in-law and Ruth sends us this prayer request: “Heidi has SCAD, a condition where the inner walls of her arteries become thin and can tear causing a rupture between inner and outer walls. One ruptured and caused the heart attack. While the surgeon was repairing it, another one ruptured. She is scheduled for another angiogram on September 3. We would appreciate prayers so much.“
Bernie saw his doctor who said he is healing well. He still has to wear his boot most of the time for about three weeks. Thank you for your prayers for Bernie.
We have been praying for some time for the spiritual and physical needs of Suzanne, Ed Milson’s sister. Carol gives us some exciting praise reports: Most importantly, Suzanne told Carol that she “has Jesus in her heart”! Secondly, Suzanne has been very sick with cancer and its many challenges. Carol now reports that Suzanne is eating and not vomiting. She is not dizzy anymore and she is walking a little with a walker! These are wonderful answers to prayer and we join Ed and Carol in praising the Lord!
Ann met with the surgeon on Thursday and reports that “even though (the surgeon) did not get clear margins on the pathology report she does not want to take me back to surgery. She feels radiation will treat whatever might be left. So radiation is the next step but that probably won’t start for another 3 weeks or so.” Thank you for your continued prayers.
Richard is Marilyn Koblentz's son-in-law. Marilyn writes that "Richard is dying of cancer and the pain is getting so much worse. I am concerned about his soul. He is very precious to me." Please pray for Richard.
Norma has been having a rough time since she and her husband have returned to Indiana for the summer. She’s had a new development in her right leg which is causing pain and she still has much pain in her back. She would appreciate our prayers.
Anna sends us this message: "I'm very grateful for all the love and prayers on my behalf." We love you, Anna, and will continue to pray!
Kathy, a friend of Lynne Robert’s, has been in a hospital in Tennessee and has cancer. Lynne reports that Kathy has been transferred to a nursing facility. Thank you for continuing to pray for her.
Even though there are still times of excruciating pain, Amy is some better and appreciates our continued prayers.
Matthew, the brother of a close friend of Ginger’s and Monica’s, is still undergoing chemotherapy. Ginger Gash reports that they, apparently, will look for a bone marrow donor match once he is in remission. Please continue to pray for Matthew as he goes through this difficult time.
Evelyn Wall’s friend who has cancer that has metastasized through his body, is still awaiting word from the doctor regarding when his chemotherapy will begin. Please continue to pray for both his physical and spiritual needs.
Pastor Jon gives us this update on his son, Stephen: Stephen will have a procedure done on Tuesday (August 5). He will have a liver biopsy because the scar tissue from his earlier surgery restricts the "liquid flow" to the liver.
