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.

Wish list

So this is kind of a big one...but before we go buy one here we are having a team come July 15th, so I thought I could throw it out here and see what happens. Our desktop fried and of course where we got it (with the warranty) is no longer in business here. So if any of you Peeps have a laptop hanging around your house [with these specs]...please let us know so the team can bring it. Thanks!

Dan needs a new man purse. His recently bit the dust. The zipper fell off completely and the liner on the inside ripped to shreds. He would be mad if he knew I was putting this on here, but I think he needs some love too. Maybe he would just be mad that I call it a man purse :)

STAMPS!!! We need stamps from America.

Books! Any and all kinds of books. Daniel likes WW2 books. I like all other kinds :)

MAIL!!! We love mail!

My Mom

Beef jerky for Daniel...he also likes twizzlers

ANYTHING STARBUCKS (mugs, tumblers, coffee, do-dads)...I love me some Starbucks.

Hard candy to pass out to the kids

Mail. We love mail. Daniel likes mail, I like mail. Mail rocks.

DVDs from garage sales...like series or movies or whatever. We don't have a TV...so gotta watch DVDs on our computer.

Hey guys,
My sister and her small group/church are very interested in the idea of possibly contributing to the soup kitchen deal. I know you said there are small groups that provide the $100/month to fun those soup kitchens.

Do you have some info you can send me about that? How would they get involved and set this up?
Thanks!

Is this still your current wish list???
The books...WW2 BOOKS! My husband was a big reader of WW2 books, especially about planes. He loved the Spitfire!
I'm going digging on the shelf!

What the ****!!! Man purse! It is a satchel. Men carried briefcases forever and they also had backpacks and just because we add a strap to them does not make it a man purse. It is a satchel!
