Burglar takes donations from Senior Center
Tinsley Carter
Register Feature Writer

Heather Sloan, director of the Richmond Senior Center, knew something was wrong when her employee called her at 7:56 a.m. Tuesday. She could tell the employee was upset by the tone in her voice. The employee told Sloan the center had been burglarized. Sloan, who was on her way into work, told her to call 911. When Sloan arrived at her office, she was greeted by a shattered window, shredded paper, doors to filing cabinets and other office supplies thrown all over the floor. The center was burglarized sometime between Friday when it closed and Tuesday morning, according to Sgt. Willard Reardon, public information officer with the Richmond Police Department. The thief got away with approximately $726, but they did not just hurt a business, they hurt a important facet of the Richmond community, Sloan said. Sloan said the thief gained entry by breaking in through the window of her office. She believes the thief used a crowbar that was left on her desk. The safe was locked in a filing cabinet, Sloan said, and the thief apparently ripped the cabinet door off to get to the funds. The burglar also ripped a slit-top donation box off a wall in the community room, and got the money that was in there, Sloan said. Money used by seniors for soda, which was in a can in the refrigerator, was also taken. “It’s funny, it seems like they knew where to go,” said Sloan, who thinks the burglar could have been someone who had been to the center enough to know where money was kept. Electronic equipment was left untouched, she said. “It’s pitiful, because every penny counts here,” said Sloan. The stolen money was donations raised during the month of May. Those donations were to go toward the money the center must raise to match federal and state grant funding each year. By June 30, the center must raise $9,000. They need around $4,000 to meet their goal in a little more than a month, Sloan said. “We were already having difficulty getting the funding, with the economy being as it is,” she said. Much of the donations come from seniors, who live on a fixed income. “Losing that $1,000 will really hurt us.” Sloan said the center will host more fundraisers to come up with the money they need, but it will be difficult. The center offers more than a gathering place to socialize. They go out to homes in the community and provide services that allow senior citizens to remain living at home as long as possible, and not have to go to assisted living or a nursing home, Sloan said. They also offer a home meal delivery program. Anyone with information about the crime is encouraged to call Richmond police at 623-8911.

Wanted to thank everyone for praying for Velma Noble. They had confirmed through a CT Scan that she had definately had a stroke. They then did an MRI to see how much damage had been done. She could not talk or move anything on her body. Her eyes were fixed forward with no expression whatsoever. But God is good. Her son got to the hospital a little after they had arrived and laid his hand on her forehead and was praying for her. A few minutes later she turned her head a looked at him and whispered she wanted to go home. The Dr's then determined that she had not had a stroke by the MRI. It was just her MS acting up and a week of IV steroids would cure her. Praise God, -- Tab Hanlon

Please be praying for our family. Mom and dad got into another fight and it’s really bad this time. He packed up his things and left. I’ve been praying so hard for his salvation that I’m convinced this is just another attack. My sister was at home when it happened, and she’s really tore up about it. So am I. My mom seems like she’s barely holding it together. I feel so helpless right now, like I’m sitting back watching my family fall apart again. PRAY "N"

UPDATE
May 25, 2009

Mom had her lung surgery on Monday of last week. When the dr. put the tiny camera inside her chest wall to look for the mass, he found many small lesions. He biopsied them and they were cancer. He told us that she will never be cancer free, but that hopefully chemo and radiation will control its growth. She is very depressed, as you can imagine. We are working very hard to try to keep her spirits up and make her smile. It feels like what I imagine battling a raging fire would feel like. Please continue to pray for mom and our family. This is a battle for all of us. When we went to the hospital at 6am Monday morning, we surprised mom! We all showed up with matching shirts that read “The family that fights cancer together, wins the battle!” We know now that it is going to be a long, hard battle, so please lift us up in your prayers. Your support and your offers to help out mean more to me than you will ever know. Love and blessings, Melvetta

May 7, 2009

I want to thank you all for your prayers for my mom (Barbra Sumner) and our family. We are really going through a rough time right now, and we need those prayers. For anyone who doesn’t know, mom was diagnosed with lung cancer 3 weeks ago. They have also found a spot on her spine that will be biopsied next Wednesday. If the cancer is contained in her lung, she will have stage 2 cancer. If the spot on her vertebrate is cancer, she will automatically jump to stage 4. She will then need the surgeries, chemo, and radiation to beat this.

Yesterday we saw 3 doctors and we now have 2 surgeries scheduled. He spinal biopsy and possible removal of the vertebral tumor will be next Wednesday, the 13th. The removal of the lobe of her lung will be the 18th. The surgeons met with us yesterday and explained everything and we are more scared now than ever. The lung surgery will be a horrific ordeal for her, and it will have a 4 to 6 month recovery period.

I would just like to ask that each of you say a prayer for my mom. Ask God to please heal the place on her spine and let the biopsy be negative. She is depressed and so scared. I feel so helpless when I look at her. Please ask for strength and peace for her, my sister, and myself. This is a family battle and we are facing it head on fully intending to win it. We do need your prayers though. Thank you so much! I love all of you! Melvetta

May 5, 2009

First I have a praise report, my uncle Jack Fields who had the blood clot behind his heart in december went in the hospital and the clot is gone! They were able to shock his heart and he is doing so much better. The best part of the whole illness is that he and wife accepted Christ and have settled into a church! They are loving it and give God all the credit for the removal of the clot.

Next I want everyone to be in prayer for my mom tomorrow, she is having surgery in the morning in Jackson. She has been putting it off for a while and continuing to get worse. She was waiting on Hannah to get here and has been busy taking care of my papaw. Pray that everything goes well with the surgery and that her recovery is a speedy one! Thanks so much, Tonya

She has already saw many doctors who cannot explain what the problem is. I spoke to her just a few minutes ago, she is crying and so scared.

I have a niece her name is Chanina - she had surgery 2 weeks ago and they removed over a foot of her intestines, Wednesday night they had to take her by ambulance back to the hospital - she was in severe pain - they have a tube going into her stomach. At 3:00 today they are going to operate on her again. When her husband called he would not tell by phone what they were going to have to do to her. PLEASE pray for Chanina. She is my family and you are my family members. Thanks and feel free to pass this along to your prayer partners.

I'm asking everyone I know to help my friends family. She is asking for all the prayer that she can get for her 2month old daughter Laruyn. She is in the Portsmouth Naval Hospital in Virginia. Please send this to anyone that will pray for them. For those of you that don't already know here is what happened about three weeks ago. Their Baby Girl(2months old) was found not breathing with no pulse Saturday afternoon (this was about three wks ago). She was rushed to the hospital where they were able to revive her. Since the brain was without oxygen for some time, she is said to have a brain injury. The extent is still not known. The doctors did many tests but still have no answers of how this happened. Since they have no answers, it is considered to be a near miss SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome). Currently, she is in a coma. She is on a respirator but the doctors have been turning it down over the last couple days to let her breath on her own too. The last couple days have brought a lot of good news. She is moving her fingers when we pinch them and she moves her sweet little toes when we tickle those fat feet. :) Her pupils are responding to light. Yesterday she had a tiny poop in her diaper which shows the doctors that her bowels are working. They've been giving her a diarrhetic to make her pee but that's been working for her. She is on a couple medicines to stop seizures. The seizures are not big...they don't make her uncomfortable, but they had to get them to stop so Lauryn could wake up. Apparently, after a seizure, the brain is so exhausted and "goes to sleep." So today will be the day that she should be getting used to the new seizure medicine and wake up a little more. They were monitoring her brain yesterday to make sure the medicine was working. Now that the machines for that are gone, she will be able to get an MRI and the doctors can get a better picture of her brain and determine exactly how much damage has occurred. Since she is so young, we are praying that there was not too much cell damage and that those healthy cells can take over the responsibilities of those that have died. We were very lucky also, because since she is only 2 months old, her head is still soft. That gave the brain room to swell and didn't put pressure on her spine...which could have been a lot worse. I will try to update this page and things progress. If you would like text updates, just let me know. She's doing really good for the circumstances and we pray it continues until she's fully awake. We ask for everyone to PRAY like crazy. God works miracles!

Mar 29 update: Not too much changed over the weekend. She is still sleeping. If she doesn't make any improvements soon the doctors want to take her off life support.

April 1 update: Lauryn has been squirming around a little bit and grabbing things but the doctors are still saying the movements are reflexes. Had another eeg and it showed a lot more activity, no "quiet" readings. Neurologist came in, said there was a little more brain activity. He is saying the same thing the pediatrician said...that they should start thinking about whether or not to continue life support because there's not much hope. He said her movements were bad movements because it shows how badly her brain is injured. Said she was not moving the way she shold be.

April 3 update: Monday they have a meeting with all the doctors involved to see about getting a doctor from Johns Hopkins in Baltimore to give them a second opinion or maybe even get her transferred there. She's back off the respirator and still moving a little bit.

April 6 update: Doctors are still saying the same thing despite the omprovements she's made...that she will not walk, talk, breath, eat, or site up and now they say she'll probably never be able to see. That she will not have a meaninggull life and she may never recognize Becca and Chris as parents. They are going to try to take out her breathing tube today to see what she can do but they say they expect to have to put it right back in because she has no muscle control. They are still asking for the second opinion like I adviced them to do. That should be happening sometime this week. She is asking that everyone continue to pray and ask God for a miracle.

I will keep you posted as I find out the information from her through myspace and facebook.
Thank you all for your prayers. Tiffany

I wanted to give you a praise report on Joyce Spencer. I talked with her daughter yesterday and the doctor came in and told her that the heart cath was done wrong and after reading another test that she would probably have to have a few stents but that should be it and the pain was from pleurisy. I talked to my mom this morning and they are going to do a stress test today and if everything is ok she will be discharged today. I know and she knows that she was healed by the Great Physician. Susan

Please take a minute and prayer for Joyce Spencer. She is the lady that Pastor and I went to see last night. Her heart is in bad shape physically but she gave her heart to the Lord last night. I called her this morning at Central Baptist and she said the doctors didn't give any hope. He told her that it was probably the end for her. She said she felt peace and she would be ok. Susan

Within the last 8 years, I've had so many loved ones pass away, including my only brother and his wife, my son, and 3 months ago, my dear hubby of 49 years. I'm really having a hard time dealing with these losses...many times I've wished I could be with them, I miss them so...I can hardly bear it anymore. I reach out to the rest of my family and friends, and they have truly been Godsends, but my whole being aches so, especially my heart, and I don't know if I can or want to live anymore without these loved ones who have passed on. When one goes for help, the first thing they want to do is put you on anti-depressants, which only cover up the pain, and I absolutely will not take these drugs, no matter what anyone says. I must somehow heal this pain, not cover it up. Please pray for me, and any words of peace and comfort will be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, in Christ's love. Sandy

I am finishing my Master's Degree in Library Media Education this semester and have to take a portion of the Praxis exam on Saturday morning to obtain Kentucky Certification as a School Librarian. Everyone please be in prayer that this exam goes well. Thanks, Jaime Porter

Just asking everyone to keep praying for my Aunt Margaret. I called her this morning and talked to her about 6:45, they were getting ready to take her into surgery. She was still in good spirits, just a little drunk from all the meds. I told her that many people was praying for her and she said to thank everyone. You don't have to know people to pray for them and people do appreciate it when you tell them you're praying. Anyway, mom called me back at 9:45 and the tumor is out and she is headed to recovery. They aren't sure if there is another tumor in the head, and they aren't sure what the stuff on the lung is. The scan done on the lung was on Thursday in London and the doctor that was sent to was out of town until today...KEEP PRAYING. So, I just need agreeement that theres not another tumor, whats in the lung isn't cancer and after today's surgery she will have regained control over that left arm and leg. ** I don't doubt my God, I fear my God and I know His power.

Thanks for All the prayers and love Asena

April just called and the doctors are sending her to Lexington. Last night she was in severe pain in her side and didn't know what was going on. They did an ultrasound and the baby seems to be fine, his heart rate was down just a little. They didn't diagnose her with anything, but tossed around the idea of appedix and galbladder. They also gaver her a couple bags of fluids. Today, they are sending her to Lexington and are considering this a high risk pregnancy now. She is still dehydrated and sugar levels are high. We'll agree that this baby's life is SAFE, and that April will be healed of this sugar problem, that the Lord, who is THE Living Water will fill her up. Asena

We just got word that my beloved and most precious niece, Faith deStefano from Sarasota Fla.,has been diagnosed-again. This time with "skeletal cancer". She survived breast cancer 9 years ago and we all thought it was over and done with. Faith is a nurse and all the medical professionals like to "tell it like it is" and, she was told her prognosis is "poor". She will be 45 yrs. of age in June. She has 3 precious children. A loving husband, and a new and thriving engineering business. My heart is so very heavy and hurting so much as I have no children and she is like my own daughter. I love her soooo much. I have been praying to our Precious Lord to place His healing hands upon her. Please Lisa, give her name to all who view you and ask that they pray for her and her family. I don't know what I will do if the inevitable happens. I know, as Christians, we are not supposed to ask "Why", but I do. Why not me? Faith has so much to live for. Considering all of the above. Her mother and father, (my brother) are too devastated to even talk. Thank you ever so much.

Janice, his mother-in-law called and said that his brain isn’t swelling so that is good. She also said that they know that God was with him because the doctors have said that he is luck that it didn’t kill him instantly, so please remember him. I also have a couple praise reports. First my mom’s headaches are almost completely gone and she says she feels better than she has in a long time. Also, Braxton’s EEG report came back normal. Thanks, Lois M Sturgill

Please pray for Pam Williams. I am hearing different reports and none of them are good. We need to hold her up because she is very weak. She is in pain and on a lot of meds right now. We need to pray against depression and her “giving up”. The worlds report is no hope but we serve the Master Physician who created her body and just one touch from His healing hands can erase what the enemy has done to her…….He is everlasting HOPE!

Here is an update on Carol Collins.....Her breathing is now very shallow. She has been like this since saturday. Her heart is the only thing basically keeping her alive. Her family wishes that God would just take her on but our God sometimes takes a while. Just be in prayer for this family. Her last words to her husband were I JUST HATE TO LEAVE YOU BUT I AM GOING TO MEET MY GOD! True love you all is a powerful thing and they have it. Just pray for them each day.

Hello Everyone, I am asking everyone to be in prayer for Carol Collins. She is the grandmother of Brooklyn Moberly( 5 year old with cancer...that USED to have cancer). She has lost all kidney function and hospice has given her 1 to 2 days to live. This family has had so much tragedy lately and need our prayers. Carol is saved and has a very positive outlook on her passing but her two girls are so upset....of course. Brooklyn is scheduled for a chemo treatment on Monday morning and they usually leave with her on Sunday night but with morgans mom dying who knows how brooklyn will get there. So please pray for them all. I know that I can count on my church for some awesome prayers. Thanks, Lindsay Centers

Please pray for my family. It has been torn apart about 3 years now. I haven't seen my youngest son for 3 years and he has called maybe 3 times. He told me he was ashammed to come around and us not being proud of him. I told I could never be ashamed of him maybe angry for a little while but would get over it plus he didn't do anything to his dad and I. I pray everyday for him to show up at my doorstep and say Mom I Home!!! OH!!! just to here that again!! My heart is breaking. Please pray for my sons to forgive and forget and that my family heals itself!! Drema

My name is Sue Shepperson. My 21 year old son, Spc. Eric Shepperson, is Army National Guard and is currently stationed in Afghanistan right along the Pakistan border. This is an extremely dangerous area that he is in and they have his unit filling in for a special ops unit. I am asking for prayers for him and his fellow soldiers that they will be safe while they are there and that they will return home safely. Thank you for your prayers and for this website.

Please pray for my daughter Melissa 22.5 weeks pregnancy with Twin boys. She is having some contractions and softening cervix. Pray they stay in until 36 weeks w/o bed rest as she has 2 yr old

I thought perhaps you could add the sale of our home in the prayers. We don’t want it to be foreclosed and have had it for sale since June as we cannot afford to keep it. Please pray that the situation goes the way the Lord wants it to. Thanks and God bless you for having this web site – it is a blessing. Julie

Arleen Anderson

I took Steph to the hospital last night at about 5:30p. Since her chemo Thursday she has been nauseous and hurting. By Sunday night she hadn't had enough to eat to keep Sean going and she was now complaining about pain in her upper right chest and shoulder area. She also couldn't break her 102 temp. I had her call the nurse on Monday and they told her that according to the symptoms, that her mediport sounded infected. They transferred her downtown and examined her. The determination is that it is indeed infected so bad that it will have to be removed. In addition the infection is bad enough that the blood is not clotting well and that will affect her surgery. They will have to leave the removal site open to help drain the infection and if all is going well, they will install a new mediport in a couple of days on the other side of the chest. Please keep her in your prayers. This has the possibility to be a major setback in her chemo regimen if the blood doesn't start clotting properly. I will again post news as it comes available. Thank you and God Bless. Steve

My name is Joan and I have two requests
First my daughter has been involved with a guy for 17 years. He's been in and out of prison all that time. She's been married 4 times. She leaves her husbands every time he gets out. He's out again and she's left her husband one more time. He has already started miss treating her. She can't see that he is bad for her. Just pray that God will open her eyes or straiten him up.
Second. My husband died 4 years ago. He was the love of my life but I'm so lonely. I'm praying for someone who loves God , and can be a friend. I also need some one who goes to church who will give me a ride . I can't drive any more . Thank you for all your prayers

I had four grand mal seizures in July and August and was diagnosed with a grade 4 astrocytoma glioblastoma multiforme ( the most malignant brain tumor). I had surgery in September. I am having chemotherapy and radiation therapy now. Please pray for my healing as well. My 18 year old son Adrian is standing by me---fixing meals, driving me to treatment and work. My 15 year old daughter Alison needs your support too. Thank you. Your sister in Christ, Amelia Anne

Hi my name is Pat and my life is a mess. I lost my husband 7 years and I still don't want to go on with my life. I have three kids but they are way to busy for me.

We were evacuated to San Antonio . Oh Lisa, we lost everything, now they tell us both houses (ours & my father-n-law's which we had at one point were going to buy) have to be torn down. 2 contractors told us that it would cost way too much to fix. Then Burt talked to another one and he said he could fix up both houses and we could sell our house, but I'm really leary of that since 2 of them told us different. I told Burt that he better check it out with the Better Business Bureau first . Lisa, please pray that we can get us a home again.

hi to all my friends i would like to request prayer for my cousin she has been in&out of the hospital here is the letter her dad sent me,to everyone that knows my uncle bill smith this is his granddaughter . Arleen

Hello all and welcome to fall. I am giving an update on Stephenie. She is presently back in the hospital after only a week at home. She was diagnosed with a urinary tract infection and they started her on antibiotics. Unfortunately, those antibiotics caused her to get another infection by killing some of her good bacteria that are supposed to keep her bad bacteria in check, so they are giving her probiotics now as well. She told me yesterday that they also tell her she has tonsilitis now. (can we catch a break here????????) For those that are not local and have not heard, the doctors have said that even with the one chemo treatment that is known to affect her cancer, they have never had anyone live for more than 2-3 years after diagnosis. We of course are going to fight that tooth and nail. We are going to try every trick in the book to cancel this. Prayer is the greatest weapon that we can use, so please keep it up, we appreciate all we can get. That is all we have now, and I apologize for not updating sooner, but I have been working diligently trying to get Mike some medical coverage so he can get his surgery. We are closer to making that happen but have nothing in hand yet. Thanks again for your care and concern and Iknow that God will bless you for your intercessary help. Take care and thanks again Steve and Linda

Dear Friends,
Thank you so much for all your prayers! My boys and I moved right after my last email and are now setled in our new home. The Lord IS!!

I am receiving my minister's license soon (Len was a minister) and am beginning Biblical studies to get my degree in HIM. I will continue to pray for each of you as the Lord moves in your situations. Begin to thank Him in advance for the answers and believe He only has our best in store as Romans 8:28 says.
Blessings on you all!!

She has been diagnosed with a rare nervous system disorder called Guillain-Barre' Syndrome-GBS(pronounced "gee-YAN bah-RAY"). The disorder is a condition in which the immune system attacks its own tissues as though they were foreign substances, which results in nerve dammage. The exact cause of GBS is not known. Julie is paralyzed from her neck down, breathing with the help of a respirator, and is being fed through a feeding tube. Keep in mind that this deterioration in her condition has taken place over the course of one week! Julie and her family need our prayers!

My 23 year old son weighted 411 lbs in 2004 and had gastric bypass. He lost down to 180 but now he has had many many problems. He has almost died 4 times due to loss of much blood. During the surgery, the surgeon nicked a small place in the new pouch which he left unnoticed . Now the ulcer has eroded and will never heal. He is on several medications for live. Due to this surgery, it has caused restless leg syndrome, and never damage in the lower legs and arms. There are times that he shakes severely. The past two weeks he has fallen twice and we received a report from the orthopedic that he either has a debilitating disc or the back is either broke. We have no insurance and we cannot find a doctor or an MRI office who will do the MRI and let us pay payments. He has applied for disability and we are having to go to court which is July 2nd. He dad was laid off from his job on November 8th of 2007 and we lost everything, our home 2 vehicles and all medical insurance. We are fighting the devil on every hand. Please remember the Moor Family in Trussville. God Bless Pam Moor

In July my church, Heritage Baptist Church, has planned a mission tip to Caragautatuba, Brazil to help A.J. Hensley at his mission outpost. There will be about a dozen of us going from my church to assist in various projects, and preaching opportunities. We’ve been asked to raise as much of our own support as possible, and the church will also help with the expense. This is a great opportunity for me, and also for you to participate in this project. You can do so in one of two ways: 1) your financial support. Any gift would be greatly appreciated. 2) Prayer. If you can’t financially support us at this time we would certainly covet your prayers while we are gone. Pray over this matter, and if you feel that God would have you help you may send you gifts to Heritage Baptist Church 163 N. Ashland Ave. Lexington, KY 40502. Please do not send gifts to me as I would then have to declare them as income. Indicate on your check that your gift is for the Brazil Mission trip, and include my name. Until Victory, Gary Hurt

Please pray for our family. My husband is trying to gain custody of his two boys from a previous marriage. The boys mother is in need of psychological help but I won't bog anyone down with the details. Please pray that it is God's will to help these boys out of a terrible situation. Thank you! Missy and Jason

I would like to ask you for support in prayers for my friends and me, please:
For KATARINA and NEBOJSA

THAT HE CALLS HER IMMEDIATELY TO TALK ABOUT NEW CIRCUMSTANCES, SITUATION…DISCUSS AND AGREE, REPENT FOR HIS BEHAVING AND APOLOGIZE TO HER

THAT GOD OPEN AND FORM LINES OF GOOD COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THEM THAT THEY RECONCILE ASAP

THAT NOTHING STANDS BETWEEN THEM

That God BRING A RIGHT MAN INTO MY LIFE ASAP

Thank you very much for support in prayer.
I pray for you.
MAY GOD ABUNDANTLY BLESS YOU! MARINA

UPDATE:
JUNE 1, 2008

Blessings all, It has been 2 weeks since I updated and God has done the impossible!! Not only does Len still live, he is awake and progressing. The Dr says the horrible pneumonia/bacteria that Len had a few months ago is back. As far as they are concerned it is primarily untreatable. I mentioned last time that Len had had some exploratory surgery on his abdomen. The Dr found a very swollen and non functioning liver, and a diseased gallbladder. This caused some jaundice and a back up of fluid in Len's stomache. The Dr said Len's liver would return to function if it shrank in size the largeness was also making it impossible to close his incision. I told the Dr I felt that God had healed Len's gallbladder, but if he wanted to take it out than go ahead. The liver shrank in size and when they went in to take out the gallbladder, it was perfect!! So they left it in!! I was given a confirmation of Len's complete healing last Sunday during Communion at church. The Holy Spirit impressed upon me to take communion for Len too. I began to pray and felt the Lord open my eyes of faith to see the "broken" body of Jesus take Len's place on that hospital bed!! I knew Len would be made whole. Today Len is on some pain medication, but almost no blood pressure medication, he is awake and in a good mood asking to get out of bed!! He will begin trial times off his ventilator again today or tomorrow. God IS!!! Praise the Lord with us!!!

Len has been healed! He went to be with the Lord Wednesday, June 25, 2008. The Lord did not answer our prayers in the way we had hoped He would, but He answered in the way that was best. Len is healed and whole in the arms of Jesus. Thank you all for your prayers. My chains are gone I've been set free!! Lori Greenawalt

Also I have a new computer which I am getting ready to try and hook up, so please don't get angry if it takes a while for me to get your request out. Thanks Gus (2/5/08)

THIS MAY BE A DUPLICATE, BUT IM REINFORCING THE PRAYER CHAIN...IT'S URGENT!!! THE PAPAW OF THIS LITTLE BOY HAS BEEN PART OF MY LIFE FOR MANY MANY YEARS...HE'S WATCHED ME GROW UP AND WORKED WITH MY DAD. HIS LITTLE GRANDSON "COLE" HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH STAGE 3 CANCER BEHIND HIS BELLY BUTTON AND ANOTHER MASS. THE DOCTORS ARE DOING TESTS TO CHECK FOR BONE CANCER TOMORROW....(SUNDAY 2/4). PLEASE PRAY...THIS LITTLE GUY IS HIS PAPAWS BUDDY AND THEY ARE CRUSHED!!!

UPDATE (2/4/08):

UPDATE on Cole There is no cancer in the nervous system, no cancer in the brain. Tests on the bones have not come back yet. Cole started Chemo yesterday and they are saying that if the cancer is not in the bones (docs report) that it's 80% cureable.

Please pray for our son John facing brain tumor surgery on February 5th and 6 weeks of radiation afterwards. Also for a daughter having gall bladder surgery February 6th. Thank you/ D & K (02/02/08)

A friend of ours in New Orleans needs your prayers!!! This one is for a little boy named John Merl who is experiencing an extremely low white platelet count. He has had several steroid treatments which have not worked. He is now facing a procedure where they take all his blood out, filter it, and put it back. This procedure will take at least four hours and may have to be repeated five times before they see results. This mean he will have to be sedated and in ICU for some time. Just yesterday I was informed that on Wednesday he was vomiting blood and hemorrhaging from his nose. Please, please, please but John Merl on your prayer list and spread this request around via church meetings and email. Our Lord is an all powerful passionate savior who still performs healing miracles to this very day. Please pray. Please pray now.
In His Name. Robert & Debra Lair.

UPDATE
02/20/08

After the doctors took bone marrow samples from JohnMerl, they gave him a Chemo treatment. His platelet count went to 15 but, that didn't last long. It bottomed out at -1 (thousand) and this is when the episodes of hemorrhaging occurred and we had blood in the stool. We thought the Chemo did not work.

They were hoping the Chemo would kill this virus or whatever that was destroying the platelets. It received platelets that night. The next morning JohnMerl's platelet count was at 50!! but, we didn't want to get too excited. The count stayed at 50 for 2 days, then went to 54 !! yeah, something was going on. This morning the count went to 60 !! He will be going home.

He is not out of the woods yet. At home he will have to have bed rest. No outside activities. No school for the rest of the year. Someone has to be with him around the clock. He will have to go back to the hospital every week, or every couple of days to have his count checked. The Chemo treatments will continue. Every 5 weeks for 4 more treatments. He will need blood transfusions. The Chemo destroys several things in the blood.

If at any time, he starts hemorrhaging and the count drops to critical again, he will be going to St Jude Hospital in Memphis. They are aware of his case and he was going there if the improvement hadn't occurred.

I want to Thank everyone for their prayers. It looks like we are finally seeing light at the end of the tunnel. We have a long road to get back to normal, but we are on our way at last.

Judy

We ask that you please continue to pray for JohnMerl;
as you can tell, the Lord is moving.
Thanks for praying!

I am usually shy about this, but this time I need help. My husband and I are having some serious marriage issues. I would like some prayer for healing and understanding in our marriage.

Hi friends & family, I just wanted to ask each of you to keep my oldest son James, his wife Vicki, and my new Grandaughter in your prayers. Anna Elizabeth was born Tues evening. She weighed in at 7.2 and she's 20 3/4" long. This evening James called me to tell me she's not doing really good. She can't keep food down, her heart rate is having trouble stablizing, her white blood cell count is triple of what it should be,& she's jaundice. Tomorrow they will run radioactive dye through her intestinal system. Also James hit black ice today on his way to the hospital and totaled Vicki's car he's O.K. but shook up. So please keep them in your prayers for me. Thanks to all, Deb

UPDATE
1-28-08
The doctors think she has an intestial infection. They had a hard time getting an IV in and ended up putting it in her stomach. Now I don't know if this caused the bleeding or if it was something else, but now she has some bleeding as well. She is in a hospital in Bangor, ME, but I don't know which one, but I'm sure it is one that specializes in neonatal care. Thanks!

01/25/08

I don't know if you remember or not but we requested prayer for June's Dad, Terry, last Sunday, but didn't give any details. Terry had gone to the doctor last friday and was told an infection had set up in his big toe, and there was an 80% chance the toe would have to be amputated. Well, he just went to the doctor and the doctor was amazed. He said he had never seen anyone recover so quickly and even had all the nursing staff come in to look. When they were unwrapping the bandage, a prayer cloth fell out and they were all asking what it was, and when they found out, they were asking what church it was from and they needed to go there, etc. This is nothing short of a miracle...and proof that FASTING WORKS! In Christ Daniel

01/24/08

I just heard from my brother about his wife. They have now quarantined her for fear that the staph infection could put any visitors in danger and afraid they might bring something more in on her. She is in a tremendous amount of pain and now even her hubby cannot be with her so there is an emotional aspect add to the phyical. So I ask everyone to please pray for her for healing and my brother for the useless feeling he is feeling right now. Thanks, Christina Johnson

UPDATE
01/25/08

I wanted to give you latest on my sister in law. The place that they removed from her leg had been there for a while and has turned solid. They sent it off to be tested and so we are asking everyone to pray that it is a good outcome with the test results. She is still in a room were my brother has to put on gloves, mask, and gown just to sit beside her and talk. She is still having a significant amount of pain as well. They are saying until they get the tests back she will be in the hospital (they had to send them off). So please keep her and the family in your prayers. (they have two teens at home that aren't even allowed to come to the hospital) She and my brother are the teen ministers at their church and are supposed to take them to some teen worship thing next weekend (can't think of the name) so please pray that she will be heal so she can continue the work God has called her for. Thank You, Christina Reno

We are all so scared. I have never seen her this sick. She is only 6 months old. I know the power of prayer, so please join us in prayer for God to heal her. Love Ada

I am calling on my friends to pray for a little 5 year old girl named Hannah here in Rochester. Her mother and I are in the same small quilting group. Hannah started having seizures, so they put her in a medically-induced coma, but her organs began to fail, so they had to get her off the meds. However, her seizures are back with a vengeance, so they put her back on the drugs. An MRI indicated there may be some brain damage, possibly from the anti-seizure meds, and they will be doing a brain biopsy tomorrow to try to find some answers. This was just supposed to be a 48 hour induced coma to settle her brain activity down, but it has turned into every parents' nightmare. Please pray, and pray hard for Hannah, her twin sister Molly, and her parents, Chris and Cheryl. Just two weeks ago, they were an ordinary family looking forward to celebrating Christmas... things sure can change quickly. Thanks so very much. Karen

Please pray for James Miller. He is a double amputee and just had more of his right leg removed.

I just spoke to Bea about Pastor's visit with his kidney doctor. The kidney functions that they have been monitoring has gone in the wrong direction. The doctor believes this is being caused by a medicine they have him on, so they are taking him off this medicine and then will recheck his kidney functions next week. Bea wanted me to remind everyone to continue to pray for our Pastor. Pray that his kidney's and lung's will work as God designed them to. Also pray that God will encourage and strengthen Pastor. Thanks Gus

He is in ICU at St. Joseph. I don't have any details other than he is in serious condition. He was having problems breathing yesterday and went to the doctor. He may have had some type of virus and pneumonia then became septic. He also has chronic heart failure, stage 3 I believe.

My Mom called shortly after I got home from church tonight and said the my cousin (Derek Lewis) fell the evening from a ladder and has crushed the bones in his arm, from the elbow down. He is going to have to undergo surgery tomorrow morning to try to repair the damage. I ask for pray for him, they so far haven't found any internal injuries, thank the good Lord for that. I just ask to pray that he hasn't got nerve damage or anything from the broken bones. Remember he is the one with krone's disease and has a low immune system so please pray about that as well, that he doesn't get any infection during or after the surgery either. Thank you all for all the prayers, In God's Love, Christina Johnson

01/04/08

I had requested prayer back when we were at Walker Branch for my old roommate's boyfriend, Ben. He was 24 and found out that he had cancer. He's been doing chemo/radiation since that time. They ran a test not long ago and all the cancer is GONE! They're going to continue this chemo through February, since that was the original plan, just to be safe. But the best part of it all is that Ben and my roommate, Morgan, are now in church and loving every minute of it! Morgan said that Ben is so excited about church that he picks his outfits out on Friday! I thank God for all his answered prayers. I know many people in our church are being affected by cancer right now, but this just goes to show that God can and will heal! We just have to have faith!!! God Bless, Ashley

01/02/08

My uncle had more test done and they have found that the lower lobe of his heart is barely functioning and in turn cause significant fluid to gather around his heart and lungs. He is still having a really hard time breathing and cannot keep his o2 levels up high enough, without the added O2 at the hospital. So please continue to pray for him and his family. Thank you and everyone we really appreciate all your prayers for our family. Sincerely, Christina

UPDATE
Dec. 28, 2007

We just got an update from the doctors at the hospital. They are saying that if my uncle's heart beat does slow down (it is still in the high 150-160s) they are going to have to shock his heart to see if that will slow it down a little to were he isn't smothering so badly. He is having a lot of swelling in his trunk area and they are concerned about that as well so please continue the prayers. Thank you all , Christina

My aunt just called and my cousin, Jamie (who comes to church sometimes with us) had to go to the emergency room. She's 11 weeks pregnant and woke up this morning bleeding really bad. They did an ultra sound and said the baby looked like it was fine, but she may have a tear in her placenta. PLEASE pray that everything is going to be okay with her and the baby. She's really scared right now. Thanks Ashley

Dec 27, 2007

First, I'd like to thank all the wonderful Christian brother and sisters I have. It is such a privilege to be called a child of the Most High. To know that by His grace, we have the right to go directly to Our Father and ask for his help. Knowing full well that He loves us so very much that it is His desire to take on our burdens so that we don't have to. How fortunate we are to have such a loving God. My prayer request is not huge in light of some of the others I have been reading and praying about, but very important to me and to my God in Heaven. I know he always hears my prayers, and now I ask you all to raise my family up in prayer as well. My story is too long- and as you can see, I tend to go on.... so the short version is that my husband and I have three children. My daughter who is 16 has literally put our family through the full circle of heartache. She has covered everything except a pregnancy. She is very self-destructive and an extreme compulsive liar. She has torn our family apart with her lies to get one side to feel sorry for her when she gets in trouble. She most recently accused my husband of doing Cocaine with her. She called and told my entire family about this calling him a monster (she has hated him since @ 5th grade). I immediately had her and my husband tested by a hair follicle test (three times) and all three times, the test came back negative for any illicit drug use (on my husband's part at least-not hers). She insists that he tampered with the tests to make them come out negative- even though the hair was collected by the physician and sent off to a specialized lab. My family feels sorry for her and doesn't agree with our discipline of her (which is all the time because of the issues she causes for herself-which are extremely serious). They felt compelled to call Child Protective Services on her complaints of her dad. Her psychiatrist spoke directly with CPS and all agreed that her accusations/my families report of abuse was unwarranted and no further action was ever taken by CPS (largely due to her past behavior and recent drug test results). They actually never even contacted us- we heard of the report being made because they had contacted our therapist first (he let us know). My family is in denial of how serious her self-destructive behavior is and basically have disowned us. I grew up in a very loving Christian home and I now mourn the loss of a family that will have nothing to do with me because they can't accept the facts presented not by me, but by psychiatrists therapists, law enforcement, her schools and the rehab facility she has spent time at. The enemy is hard at work to destroy a gift that my Father gave me long ago- a strong, loving, Christian family and a jewel of a daughter. I have struggled with deep depression and have been seeing a Christian therapist myself to help me cope at times. My daughter can't be left alone, I can't trust her out in public and I am often compelled to check on her while she sleeps to make sure she is alive. When she is at school, I search her room for drugs- I've learned to look in the oddest places (you'd be surprised where kids' hide drugs). Please raise my family and my daughter foremost in your prayers. She is like so many other lost kids in our nation. I'm not willing to let her fall between the cracks and I'm not willing to loose her. Her name is Alexandria Joy, we call her Lexie. She is one of the true loves of my life- and God tells us that He never gives us more than we can handle, so he must think a lot about me and my family and I'm flattered, but I'd be ok if He could just kick the enemy in the butt and allow my family to get past this and start praying for God's will, not coddle my daughter every time she does something wrong instead. I can obviously go on and on. I have placed my family in God's hands, and I humbly ask for my brothers and sisters to do the same. Bless you all and thank you for your hearts and faithfulness. -Sue from Wisconsin

My Mom is not feeling good at all (she hasn't been for a few days now). She is having alot of pain in her stomach and side, and constantly has to keep a heating pad to help with the pain. She will not go to the doctor, she says that God will take care of it. I believe in all honesty she is afraid that they will tell her something that she does not want to know. So please keep her in your prayers. (We are staying with her and Dad tonight she has been wanting to see Nathaniel (she says he makes her feel better and younger :-).) We will see you tomorrow evening at church, she asked us to stay here and let them visit with Nathaniel in the morning.) Sincerely, Christina Reno-Johnson

NOW IM GOING TO WRITE IN ALL CAPS BECAUSE IM EXCITED!!!!!! MY AUNT JUST CALLED AND SAID THAT MY COUSINS BABY ISABELLA WENT TO UK THIS MORNING FOR SURGERY ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT THE TUMOR/CYST HAD SHRANK SO MUCH THAT IT WAS ALMOST GONE AND THERE WAS NO NEED FOR SURGERY. THANK YOU EVERYONE WHO TOOK THIS REQUEST TO HEART AND PRAYED FOR MY COUSINS BABY. SAMANTHA, MY AUNT ANITA SAID TO TELL YOU A SPECIAL THANK YOU THAT YOU MADE A HUGE DIFFERENCE. (SAMANTHA AND MY AUNT WORK TOGETHER) MY AUNT AND UNCLE DO NOT GO TO CHURCH AND THIS HAS BEEN A HUGE MINISTERING TO THEM. SHE KNEW IT WAS NOT A COINCIDENCE THAT CYST WAS GONE. SHE GAVE GOD CREDIT FOR IT ALL ......AND THE PRAYERS OF THE CHURCH. THANKS SOOOO MUCH! ASENA

I would like you all to remember Doug Bryant in your prayers. He is at Hazard ARH with a gastrointestinal infection and possible bowel obstruction. It is so good to know that we can reach out to our brothers and sisters in Christ in times of need, and even greater to know that God hears every prayer.

UPDATE:
01/16/08

Brother Doug has developed post-op pneumonia. They have him on oxygen and antibiotics. He was doing fairly well yesterday and was sitting up, but today started having trouble breathing. We are also waiting on results from an ultrasound on his legs to rule out blood clot. Please continue to pray protection around him and healing for his body. We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. Thank you all.

UPDATE:
01/21/08
Just wanted to let everyone know that Doug Bryant is finally being released from the hospital either today or tomorrow. Please continue to remember him in your prayers. After they found the pneumonia, they also found that he had a blood clot in his lungs. He will go home on blood thinners. We need to band together and pray for all our pastors here in eastern Kentucky. We have seen a huge attack on our pastors recently.

To me, all this can mean is that Jesus is about to pour out his Holy Spirit on these mountains in a way that has never been seen before. Why else would the devil be trying so hard to take our churches apart one by one? We have all heard so much about a revival coming. And I believe that it is closer than ever. We have much work to do. Look at all of us. We have already started crossing the boundaries of doctrine to simply be brothers and sisters in Christ with one goal, to win souls to Him. We need to keep up this work, and keep having events that unify us, and sending emails to each other, and strengthening each other. I thank each and every one of you. May God continue to bless each of you as you grow in Him. I praise God for all He has done, and all He will do. Love you all, Loretta

Also remember Pastor James Madden who had open heart surgery yesterday in Lexington.

Thank you for your support and prayers.

Results of surgery, Doug Bryant First, I'd like to give glory to God!! And then I want to say how much it means to know that we can reach out to our brothers and sisters in Christ, and great and powerful things happen with prayer. Doug had his surgery today. Several years ago, he was in a motorcycle wreck and was pretty badly injured. We all have a protective sort of muscular covering over our intestines that holds everything in place. The doctors think that the trauma from the wreck caused several tears in this covering, one of them about 4 inches long, and the bowel had looped out through that tear and began to get squeezed. So, all that had to be done was to put everything back in place and repair the tears. This is wonderful news!! He did not have to have any cutting on his intestines, which makes for a shorter recovery and less chance of post op infection!! Again, I can't thank you all enough for your love, support, and faith. Psalm 7:17 I will praise the Lord according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the Lord most high. In Him, Loretta

Hey guys Just wanted to ask for prayer for my great niece. Josi. She has been diagnosed with RSV and she needs healing in her little body. Also my niece Jessie is in the hospital with stomach problems and severe migraines. She has battled with these headaches for about six years now and they have caused her to have to quit work (which she loved) and go on disability. She wants to be healed and have a life so badly so please pray for her complete healing.And pray for her dad (my brother Harold) and her mom (Pat) they are both under so much stress from all of the years of watching their child suffer. My brother is not saved and he does not have God to help him. In a way I think he blames God for not healing her by now. Please keep them both in your prayers. Pat is saved and is fighting a spiritual battle for her family and she needs her arms lifted up in prayer as well. My dad has also been under attack with stomach problems and needs to be healed as well. Thanks so much for all of your prayers. Leshia

I would like everyone to pray for my office. A man that was our Juvenile Specialist (his name is Bill) was diagnosed with brain and lung cancer about 6 months ago. He had chemo and radiation and that didn't really help. He is in the hospital with pneumonia and went into a coma yesterday. They don't think he's going to make it. Just pray for peace and comfort for my office because they are really upset about it (he got sick shortly after I started working here, so I don't really know him). Thanks, Ashley

I would like everyone to pray for my office. The co-worker that had cancer that I sent a prayer request on last week, died over the weekend. Pray not only for our office, but for his family as well. His name was Bill Clemons and he was from Breathitt County. Thanks Ashley

I just got an update on Sue Vance. Last night she was moved to ICU. Her blood pressure and vitals bottomed out when they were trying to give her some medication. She is in a great deal of pain. She also has significant swelling that the doctors are very concerned about. For those of you who do not know, Sue had strep throat and it went to her joints and is now in her blood stream. It has affected her liver and kidneys. They seem to think that her heart is okay but will do further tests to make sure. This infection has basically poisoned her system and she is septic. Sue is very sick and is in need of diligent prayer.

Eric Smith had a pretty severe seizure yesterday (1-7-08) and they are having to take him to Lexington today for tests. The side effects for the some of the medicines are very severe, please pray for this family. Also, a friend of mine from Dry Ridge is at the hospital, her name is Ruth, they think she may have had a small stroke, so pray for her. Lexie

Hey Everybody. One of my worker's in our senior homecare program is asking for some prayer for her father who is struggling with cancer. Praise the Lord the tumor has shrunk, but now we found out today that his blood palettes are extremely low; the doctor's say this is a very dangerous situation and the slightest cut could easily cause him to bleed to death. He is soon facing an emergency blood transfusion and needs your prayers to get through the weekend. His name is Mason Foster and his worried daughters name is Sherry Matthews. Please stop now at this moment and pray for them and then ask the church to pray for them when you meet this weekend.

Thanks! Many blessings to each of you.

Robert & Debra.

Will you please pray for my friend Tonya and her 5 children. Friday night her husband Eric (he is a Huntsville Police Officer) and another officer responded to a car accident. When Eric and the other officer went to arrest one of the drivers for DUI the man pulled a gun an shot Eric in the head. Eric was taken to the hospital and operated on. He passed away Saturday morning. Eric was 36 years old. I have known Erica and Tonya for 14 years. All Eric ever wanted was to be a police officer. In January he would have been with the department for 3 years. In his 3 years he had become a decorated officer. He was a great friend to everyone and wonderful with children. Please keep Tonya and the children in your prayers. My mind can not begin to understand what she is going through. To loose your husband and for 5 children to loose their father right before Christmas. I know that my heart is past broke and completely shattered right now. For something so senseless and a drunks lapse in judegement to cause such heartache.

As many of your already know my son’s (Colton) best friend Robbie has recently been diagnosed with Leukemia.

Robbie is 9 years and in the 4th grade at Martha Jane Potter Elementary School. His prognosis was very poor especially in the begging. We had been a little more optimistic until this week. Below is an update on his condition and a request for prayers. Robbie praying.

Once again, we are desperately seeking prayers for Robbie. He was suppose to begin his 5 day treatment yesterday in Lexington. As many of you know his ANC have been very low. This number is used to determine a leukemia patients ability to fight infection and the body’s ability to accept chemotherapy. ANCs vary from zero to in the thousands with a normal range of 1800-7000. Anything below 500 is severe. Robbie’s is now in the single digits. His treatments have been discontinued until his condition improves. He’s weak and tired; he has no appetite and when he does it’s quickly followed by nausea. A few weeks ago Robbie weighed 96 pounds; yesterday he weighed 72 lbs.

I know many of you are already praying and we must continue to be diligent in those prayers. We’re asking every person and every church to take time this Sunday, December 16th between 11 am and noon and say a special prayer for Robbie. It’s essential for Robbie to resume his treatments as soon as possible. His numbers will be checked again on Monday.

I have a God who works miracles and that’s what I’m asking for this Christmas. I’m blessed with three healthy children, to ask for anything more would merely be selfish.

Remember to not only pray for Robbie but his entire family; they are very discouraged. Brady (Robbie’s brother) is currently out of school in order to protect Robbie from any infections that he might bring home. They can’t have any visitors until Robbie improves.

Please send this prayer request to everyone. Ask your church to say a special prayer on Sunday for this little boy and his family. I know it helps to put a face with prayer request, here are a couple of pictures that were taken about a month ago when Robbie was doing better. Robbie and Colton at church a few weeks ago.

Peggy, Robbie's mom, just called and asked for prayers. Robbie has an infection and is on his way to UK (Wednesday, January 16 3:00pm). His ANC count still hasn't come up so we knew that he was at an incredible risk for infection. I went with Robbie for his treatment on Monday. He had to have yet another blood transfusion. He's such a trooper, facing his nurses with a smile and telling them to "fill it up, this time" while they prepped his unit of blood. Today though, he was crying in the background --afraid and not wanting to go to the hospital. Robbie knows and understands everything about his condition including his treatment plan and the fact that if he's hospitalized at anytime with a low ANC count, he cannot be discharged until his count reaches 500. His ANC count on Monday was 42.

My heart aches for Robbie who was hoping it would snow Thursday; he's never had snow cream so I promised to make him some. He wants to learn division, go to Sunday school, play with Hope (his dog) and see Water Horse. Yet I complain about driving in the snow, the kids having homework and the kids playing with the dog rather than doing their chores.

Sometimes we get so caught up in life that we don't recognize the blessings God has given to us.

Pray for Robbie's parents too. They are very discouraged, on Monday while I stayed with Robbie during his treatment and transfusion, Brady (his little brother) went across the clinic to see an optometrist. Brady will need at least two operations to correct his eye, including surgery on his eye lid and the muscles of the eye.

I want to thank all of you for your prayers and kindness. The week before Christmas the road to Robbie's house was bogged down from rain, turning their dirt road into a mud bog. Hoping to encourage Robbie to eat, a friend brought Robbie some goodies. The road was so swampy, the small car couldn't get up the hill. Robert and Peggy decided that since so many folks along with Martha Jane Potter Elementary and West Whitesburg Elementary had bought so much for Robbie and Brady, they would take part of the Christmas money they had put back and buy gravel. They patched the road up, but knew it was only a short term fix. But God knows our needs and who can provide them. A contractor showed up last week, with a load of gravel "just wanting to help out." Many thanks to whoever made a way for this to happen.

Monday, we left UK very discouraged. Robbie's next treatment is scheduled for January 21st. It's a 3 day, high intensity, experimental treatment. However, his ANC count has to be at least 750 before they will begin this regimen. His doctor seemed to think that Robbie is a few weeks away to reaching that number. Therefore, Robbie will have to remain isolated until his finishes the three day treatment. I dropped Robbie off late Monday night, a little while later Peggy called to tell me how Robbie's spirits were lifted with 3 cards he received in the mail. His excitement was contagious. "Three cards from TEXAS, and not just the same place in Texas, but there are people from three different places in Texas praying for me," he explained. Again, God knows what we need, when we need it and who can provide it.

I told Peggy that I worried about the expense of the many trips they had to make to Lexington. She assured me that God was providing, not only had someone sent them a gas card but one of the local gas stations filled her tank and sent her on her way, insisting she didn't owe anything. As Peggy relates these stories to me, she says she's amazed not only at the many people who are praying but of the kindness of strangers. She insists that their family doesn't know who is responsible for the many "random acts of kindness" --but it certainly demonstrates that the spirit of Christianity prevails in America!

Here is update on Pastor. Bea said that the test showed that he would need surgery to fix a damaged valve. He wants to have this done as soon as possible. So they are going to do a heart cath on him today to make sure there is no blockages, then they will schedule him for the surgery. So please pray for him. Thanks Gus

Welsey's grandmother has been sick for sometime. At Thanksgiving she was eating, alert, participating in the family conversation and just like life.......today she doesnt know anyone and they sent her home from the hospital,,pretty much to die. She has cancer that has spread all over her body and had refused treatment several times. I just ask that you guys would lift wesley, his dad and the entire family up for strength. They've not had much loss in the family and it's a terrible thing to deal with as we all know. thanks so much and I love you ALL!!! Asena

UPDATE

Wes just got the phone call.....they're saying his grandmother only has a few mintues.....i dont know how they know this but theres nurses there and theyve been monitoring her 24/7,,,so I assume they KNOW!!! He did get a chance to talk to her on the phone last night and she told him she loved him,,,it meant alot to him.

My mom called and asked me to pray for a neighbors son. She doesn't know these people well and didn't even know his name but God does. She said the lady told my dad that her son had something with his heart and they didn't know if he would make it or not. So just ask the Lord to move in his situation because God knows. Thanks Visa

I have a prayer request. Haley's great grandmother Lottie Patterson is very ill. She is 92 (I think). The family has been told that she will not survive. She is a Christian. Most of her family need God. Please pray for them.

Makenzie Foley, who is a preschool student at West Knox, has just been diagnosed with cancer. At this time we believe that the cancer is in her throat, stomach, lympnoids, and possibly her liver. She is currently in UK hospital.

This morning (12-6-07) the doctors will be doing some biopsies. Makenzie will be sedated for 3 days and then begin Chemotherapy. As parents, we can only imagine what the family is going through. One of the greatest gifts we can give Makenzie is our prayers. Please add her name to any of your church prayer lists.

Mrs. Becky, Mrs. Amy and the preschool staff

She is having to take a drug that has some of the same effects as chemo and is having to take a treatment every Monday that really has some rough effects on her. She has asked that our church please pray for her. She is a Christian and knows that God will take her through this, but these treatments are really working on her. Denise

Josh Holland from First Baptist had a test done on his heart because of the incident where he passed out a while back. They put him on a tilt table and he ended up blacking out so they think something is wrong with his heart. Everyone keep him in your Prayers. Thanks -Nathan

I have two prayer requests:

1. One of my very good friends from high school had been having some problems...she kept passing out and then vomitting while passed out. She went to the doctor and they told her that she either had a brain tumor or something wrong with her heart. So she went to a specialist and they told her somewhat good news...she didn't have a brain tumor, but she did have something going on with one of her heart valves. They put her on some kind of medicine, I believe it is blood pressure medicine. She is really scared and doesn't really understand what is going on. She's only 24. So please pray for peace/comfort for her.

2. There was a baby born into Jade's Step-father's family. They took him a few months early due to complications his mother was having. They have him in the hospital at UK. Last I heard, they had an IV in his head and a feeding tube in him. We're getting mixed reports on how he's actually doing, so we're going to stop by and see him on our way to the football game tonight. Please pray that God will touch this baby...it may be what wins over his parents to the Lord. His name is Blaine.

Thanks, Ashley

I know that God can do all things and I promised my friend that I would pray for him and put him on our list.

I just wanted to write you and maybe you can pass it on to everyone else. Although I am still having quite a time physically right now, I want to thank you all for your prayers and I am hoping and praying that I will be able to come this weekend to church and the dinner. Thank You all and we truly feel we have found our home with the church and our brothers and sisters in Christ. Sincerely, Christina

>>>>
I just wanted to pass on a prayer request since I have to work tomorrow and won't make it to church. Christina went to the doctor yesterday and was sent for a cat scan. They wanted to put her in the hospital because she has about 1/2 of her left lung, her stomach and heart being compressed because of fluid that has gathered. She refuses to go because Nathaniel will not stay anywhere without her. So she is going to rely on God and Lasix to get that fluid off. Please remember to pray for her this weekend until she goes back Monday to see if it is going to have to be removed with a giant needle. Thank You all, Randy

UPDATE:
11-14-07

Christi is doing better than she was before, still having a lot of pain and shortness of breath. She will not go back to the doctor because she said through God's hand with the help of lasix (120-160mgs daily) she will get better. Nathaniel won't leave her side so she and he are staying with her parents so they can help right now. Please continue to pray for her as we all know prayers get answered we just need to have faith and patience in Him. Thanks, Randy

Please have everyone start praying for Mouse. They had him at the ER on the 7th.

Please send this prayer request for me. Lisa Weist (my principal) is really having a difficult time and needs all of our prayers. The medications that the doctors have given her mother for the cancer is causing problems. Now her father has become ill(I'm not exactly sure what the problem is) and needs Lisa to care for him as well. Lisa is strong but she is carrying a heavy load right now and as many of us know, satan will use this to make it difficult for her to see God's light at the end of the tunnel. Please continue to pray for her and her family. Also, the car's salesman that Randall bought a car from yesterday is suffering from skin cancer. Let's pray for him as well. His name is Jeff. Theresa

Please pray for my husband Bob and I. We are having a lot of marital problems! We were going to marriage counseling, which seemed to help me cope, but did nothing to change the credit card addictions and compusive lying. My husband has gotten us into so much debt, I don't know what to do any more. I asked him not to come home on Friday, until he could take care of his problems, get some professional help. But he came home anyway. He said that we could work this out, but then I caught him in several lies during the day on Saturday, and he is still lying about other credit cards debts that he has hidden somewhere else. I love my husband, but I am emotionally and financially exhausted. I really don't know what to do anymore. Anne

Please pray for my father in law, he was hit by a bravada while checking something on his semi off the side of the road. He is now paralyzed and still unable to eat or drink anything on his own. He is left with some broken ribs, broken pelvis and broken arm. He had swelling and bleeding on the brain but that has all resolved its self. My husband flew out from Italy and his main concern for his dad is his living situation. God has already sent us to an organization called Rebuild Together run by a man named Dayton. My contacting him was nothing short of a miracle. They are now running short on funds and are almost finished. My husbands time there is short as he must return to complete his obligation with the Navy. He dose not want to leave without everything being completed for his dad, so when he is able to return home he has one that is able to accomdate his needs. Now this past Wed his brother had a massive heart attack. The man that was hit by the car is named JACK and his brother that had the heart attack is named EGER. THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR PRAYERS!!! GOD BLESS YOU ALL Donna

UPDATE
12/31/07

UPDATE ON JACK & EGER A few days after I wrote Eger was taken off life support and passed on. As of last week JACK my husbands father that was hit by the Bravada is going to be released from the hospital on 16JAN08. He is paralyzed but doing great. He eats and drinks on his own and is learning how to get into and out of a car. My husband got an extension of a few days from the NAvy and was able to get the house done for him. The Rebuild together got an awesome donation due to seeing what they were doing for my father-in-law. THANK YOU GOD Donna

The principal at my school (Lisa Weist) found out yesterday that a mass that was taken out of her mother's lung was cancer. The doctors removed the part of the lung with the cancer, but I wasn't told if all the cancer was gotten. Ms. Weist is a strong christian woman but this is a tough time for her as it would be for any one. Regardless of her circumstances I always see her find a way to give God glory. Please pray for the strength she needs to get through this and her mother's healing. Theresa Haney

PLEASE PUT REBECCA LAYNE ON YOUR PRAYER LISTS. HER GENERAL PHYSICIAN HAS FOUND A LUMP IN HER BREAST & HAS PERFORMED TESTS & DOES NOT LIKE WHAT HE HAS FOUND. HE IS NOW SENDING HER TO A SPECIALIST.

Praise the Lord. My husband had mitral valve repair surgery. Last week we went for another check for what we thought was going to be progress. But doc said the echocardiogram shows leakage. We have to go Tuesday May 15 for a TEE test which goes down the esophagus to get a better view of his heart and look at the valves. My pray is that the Lord heal my husband before the test and say the earlier test was wrong. I'm looking for God to do something that would be hard for man but easy Him. My husband has been in pain since 2002 and I'm looking for complete healing for that also. In the name of Jesus be blessed Sister in Christ Viola

Once again I am requesting prayers - this time for a very dear friend who is having surgery on Friday in the Philippines. It is cancer but unfortunately he has problems with his heart, so please pray that everything will go well for him. I have such faith in the prayers of this group. I am sure you may have heard of the little girl of 3 years who was abducted in Portugal 6 days ago. Right across Europe prayers are being said for her safe return. Please keep the prayers going as only the Good Lord can help. She is an English child and her poor parents are going through such a terrible time. They were in Portugal on holiday. I know that God will answer us if we keep asking. Regards and God Bless Charlotte

Please put Lynn on your prayer list. He had a place that was growing on the side of his head. He didn't think it was anything serious so it took a while for us to convince him to go to the doctor. They did a biopsy and our fears were confirmed. It is melanoma. He has to go to Lexington next Wednesday. They are sending him to the same doctor that did my mastectomy. Please pray that it hasn't spread. We already know that he will have to have surgery and possibly chemo. ReDonna

My name is Sarah Stinton. After losing vision in my right eye on January 18, 2007, I was sent to several doctors for numerous tests. I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis on February 20, 2007, just five days before my 20th birthday. Although this has been one of the greatest challenges I have ever been faced with and one of the hardest realities I have ever had to accept, I am trying my best to stay strong and positive. I have an amazing support group of friends and family that have been such a blessing to me. In addition, I would like to ask that you pray for me. The doctor's are optimistic about my prognosis since I was diagnosed so soon, so young. I ask that you please keep my family and I in your prayers. Please pray that I stay strong, that I fully recover from my current difficulties and I go into remission and do not relapse. I also would like to ask that you pray that science will bring us to a cure for Multiple Sclerosis soon. Thank you so much. God Bless, Amen.

Please pray for my family. My Mother will likely pass on to Heaven this weekend from a terrible brain tumor. The end is near, as she is not responding, and her breathing has changed over the past several hours. She is at home as she wanted. This is very difficult for us. I am a nurse, so have been caring for her, along with hospice. She and my Daddy have been together, counting dating time, for fifty years. She very much loves Jesus and is ready to go, even though we are not ready to lose her. We will not try to hold her back. Please just keep us in your prayers. Thank you so much. - Cindy

Mary Taylor

My Father in Heaven please hear my prayers. I humbly ask of you could guide my wife back to me. We are divorced for a little over two weeks. I still love and miss her very much. We made a number of mistakes together and I ask your forgiveness through Jesus Christ. There was never any abuse of violence in our marriage. Instead of turning to The Holy Divine Trinity we turned to 3rd party persons that just added and antagonized our situation. If it is Your will to reunite us again please Lord protect us and our marriage till death do us part. Also Lord please protect her from this new Winter Storm we are having. In Jesus name I pray Amen

I need prayer. Next Tues 9th I am having major dental surgery to cut out – not pull out but cut out 9 teeth at the top and then have to have a full upper denture which I am not keen on but at least I may be able to eat again. I am very scared of the fasting, the anaesthetic the recovery etc so if you can remember me I would be most grateful. Melinda

I pray and commit to the Lord each & every prayer request listed, thanking Him for His Love & Healing and answers already provided, and thank Him in advance for His provision and Healing touch for the other requests sent in. In His greatness, " He can do more than we can ask or imagine. " I have travelled a long road, the latter has been with the Lord who has brought me through much pain, Healing me, challenging me, stretching me & many times I have grown surrendering to Him because I have been desperate and He was all I had. He has walked with me and many times carried me & I am thankful for His love. This new year I ask for His Hand on my life, His grace and strength and peace, wisdom for decisions I have to make following Him in His ways of righteousness. Most of all for Him to fill the void in my heart, which only He can in His love & mercy. I thank Him for giving me patience & commit this year 2007 to Him. In Jesus name J
