Praise / Prayer Requests

Friends, Romans, Countrymen, lend me your ears!  Thought I would start with something different to see who is paying attention.  

 Below are our prayer requests for this week:

1.  Teresa - Chris Howard's Aunt, she is diabetic, in need of a kidney transplant.  Pray how the family can support her.  She is a believer.
2.  Sylvie - and her husband, Michael.  Sylvie has stage 4 cancer and neither of them are believers.  Pray God will use this to bring them both to Him and for healing for her.
3.  Shelly Goff's Grandfather - does not recall decision to move.  Pray for Shelly's Mom as she struggles with his care and for opportunities for her to discuss his decision to accept Christ, given the fact that he is struggling with his memory.
4.  The Bowes  - Sam and Robin have a new baby in the house, sibling of the other kids they are currently fostering.  Mom was on drugs and the baby has been weened off the drugs, but pray for the baby's health and for each of these children as the process is moving forward to sever parental rights.  Also pray for Sam & Robin as they care for the new baby.
5.  Dorris Huffstetler - mental stability has taken a big hit, but she is presently in a facility.  Just not sure how long she will voluntarily stay.  Pray for healing of her mental state and for her daughter, son-in-law and grandson.
6.  Jim & Jimmy Howard were traveling Sunday to see the 49'ers beat the Falcons.  We prayed they would be safe in their travels.
