Colossians 1:9

  • Jami -
    Her dad (Don) was diagnosed with bladder cancer. They recently did surgery to remove all the cancer and so far it all looks clear. So please pray that the MRI, blood work, and lab tests all come back negative.
  • Mandy-
    We need financial prayer. My hubby is in the RV industy & it is in the toilet right now. We are doing what we can to stay afloat, but it looks grim. We're in the process of selling the house just to get enough $ to make it through the winter. No debt...just struggling to buy necessities. Not sure where we'll end up?
  • Paige -
    (13 months old) girl who is battling stage one neuroblastoma which is a kind of cancer. Please pray for her and her family for complete healing. UPDATE: She's at home now and she's had one round of chemo so far. She'll have another round in the next 2 weeks and then they'll take a CT Scan of the lump to see if it has shrunk. Then they'll either do surgery to remove it (preferred) or they'll give her 2 more rounds of chemo and take a look at it again. So far she seems to be doing well, with no physical side affects.
  • Brenda -
    Going for more tests this week at the hospital. She was already cleared from the results from her breast but we are still a little concerned because of our family history with cancer (Brenda is my aunt).
  • Samantha -
    Zoe, her seven year old daughter has been diagnosed with scoliosis, a heart murmur, and most recently Mitral Valve Prolapse, and Patent Ductus Ateriosus. Zoe will have to have surgery...possibly in July. Their insurance only covers 80% of the costs of treatment. Please pray for Gods provision and healing.
  • Grandma Vicker -
    Has had heart problems for forever but now her aortic valve is beginning to tighten causing her heart murmer to increase...so soon they might have to re-open her heart to give her a different valve.
  • Heidi -
    She is battling all kinds of crazy...her diagnosis being: lacunar stroke; onset diabetes/ high cholesterol/ migraines. Please pray for all of that.
  • Gabe –
    2 year old little boy is going through chemo is very weak and sick. Please continue to pray for him and his family.
  • Anne -
    Direction, wisdom and timing as she writes her book.
  • Bethlehem House -
    Lynn- the intrum house mom...Please pray for strength and wisdom as she leads the girls toward the Cross.
  • Derek and Shannon -
    Continued healing from the cancer that has been eating away at their lives. (He is in remission but the disease is still causing all sorts of drama).
  • Jackie and Chuck -
    Health and comfort as they grow old together. (She battles COPD, emphysema and array of other health issues.)
  • Mr. and Mrs. Fair -
    Wisdom for Daniel as he leads our family, wisdom for me as I follow.
  • The people of South Africa -
    Salvation, healing within their land, food in their bellies.
  • Kelsey -
    girl from youth group...Dr's can't seem to figure out what is wrong; she has been ill for over 2 years.

My most favorite day yet

P1010567_2 I think that we keep saying that...but God keeps doing cool things, soP1010513 you know...favorite days are favorite days. We opened a soup kitchen in Seaview...in a squatter camp that one of our teams built a church in not too long ago and so relationships are being built and hopefully lives, changed. I will start a new photo album soon (and let you know when it is up) but for now, here are some of the pictures that captured the day. Please pray for them. P1010577

I wish I could have been there! What's the Mama's name? I will pray for them, especially the Mama. God bless her for being willing to work to feed those precious little ones. Love and miss you.

That just takes my breath away.

I love reading about your work in South Africa. Makes my life in the States seem so mundane in comparison.
