Prayer Requests

Even though this doesn't deal with Lou, we wanted to add a section to our site that includes various needs. We hope that each of you will keep these in your prayers. If you have any prayer requests, please email us at Alissa383@CS.com.

"And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven. Therefore confess your sins to each other, and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective." (James 5:15-16)



I am asking for prayer for my sister's mother-in-law -- a beautful 76-year-old German lady named Hedde. She has come to the tough stages of brain cancer and is very very weak and tired. I am asking for a miracle from the Lord to restore here to perfect life and love.

In Jesus Name
Thanks

Dear Beloved Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
I have been engaged to be married and my girlfriend just told me that someone younger is interested in her. She doesn't know if she should go with him or stick with our engagement. He is an alcoholic and a drug user but a pretty handsome guy. She is confused about me but says she will always love me. I am heartbroken and in shock. She says she will find out if there is anything going on with him, and if there isn't she will come back to me. She is sincere but a little influenced by single or divorced friends.They say I am too old for her and she could do much better. I believe she really loves me, but I am not the most attractive person. I am about ready to fall apart in a major way. I am asking that God would bring their attraction to complete nothingness and that the fullness of God himself would shine in OUR relationship and it would be brought back together miraculously. This person trying to steal her away is a person who posed as a friend of ours.I even saved his neck when people tried to pick on him -- I stood up to 5 guys on his behalf. I am so devestated . I am asking for God's direction and hope she comes back to me and sees through this situation with Gods help in a hurry. I really love her and her name is Toni. We have been dating a long time and she is a Christian. I am so utterly devestated. I ask for prayer to survive and that my engagement will survive. I ask that God will bring her back and clearly show her the truth right away. May God clear the confusion and bring her back a hundredfold in Christ, But I ask God to take care of everything. She is now finding out if she wants the other guy and I have to wait. She is not calling me ...

In Jesus Name
Amen
David

Hello,
Please add my mothers name to the cancer prayer list. She has fluid buildup around her right lung which caused it to collapse. She was hospitalized again today because of shortness of breath and thru an X-ray found something going on in her left lung. They are thinking either pneumonia or another cancer. Please pray with me to God for her healing. We lost our dad to a car accident 13 years ago, and even though we are grown up, we wouldn't know what to do without mom. Please also pray that her treatments are effective and that she doesn't give up hope. Her name is Raquel from Bolingbrook, IL. Thank you all.

I would like to request prayer for my mom. My dad passed away last month and she is trying to give up. I have requested prayer for her before and GOD answered our prayers. Her name is Earlean. Friends also told me to go ahead and ask for prayer for myself. I normally wouldn't do this. However, I had surgery in Feb. The doctor made a mistake and I have had many surgeries which I haven't recovered. I am still very sick. I have to be fed through an IV in my neck. (No food or drink since Feb). Thank all of you in advance for prayers for all of us.

Please keep a dear friend in your prayers. Robert Cabella (a fantastic Elvis tribute artist) had an accident in June 2001. He is still recovering from the head injuries. He has touched so many lives with his music. I pray that God will take of him and his family, and hopefully someday soon he will fully recover.

I would like for every one to pray for my dad so that he finds the Lord. He will not go to church and we pray and pray, so please pray that God will just move him to change his ways and go to church and get right with God.

I would like it if everyone would pray for my father. His name is Kenneth. He has had pnemonia for six weeks, and I would love it if he got better becouse he is the preacher of Friends of Faith Baptist Church. Well, he can preach, but he does not like being sick at all, so please pray for him.

His daughter,

I would like for you all to remember my husband, Roger Duty, in prayer; he has a very rare lung disease called alpha one. He is missing the gene in his lungs that filters the blood. He also has stomach trouble and colon trouble. And I also have a sister in the hospital with chest pains. Thank you so much. God Bless.



Please pray for a new friend of mine who was just recently saved. My husband met him (Kevin Kuykendoll] at a gas station, and he was crying and told my husband that he had gotten saved the night before.He said the old devil was really on his back and asked my husband to please have folks to pray for him. This was about a month ago and I have spoken with him several times and have found him to be such a sweet guy [he is 22 years old]. My family and church have been praying for him and he is really growing stronger in the Lord. I spoke with him last week, and he said he thought the Lord might be calling him to the ministry. Isn't God good to us? Please pray for this young man as he begins his walk with our Lord and Savior.

Love in Christ,

I ask your prayers for my son, Joshua, who is 19 and is having a lot of depression and difficulty dealing with life in general. I have done everything I know to do as a mother. I turn this over to God and his saints and ask that all who read this pray not just for Josh but for everyone on this list. I know there is power in prayer.

Hi!
I would like everyone to pray for my uncle, James Smith. He recently found out that he has lung cancer caused from his years of work in the automobile body repair business. At first, they performed a test that said it had not spread to any other parts of his body. They thought they would only have to take out a portion of his right lung. Today, they met with the surgeon and he said that the test showed some abnormalties and that the cancer was in his lymphnodes. He also told them that if they found this to be true when they started the surgery that they would do nothing but sew him back up. Although this may be true, I know someone who is able to take care of the situation. After all, he said that it was his will that we prosper and be in good health. Nothing is to hard for our Lord. I appreciate everyone's prayers. I will keep you informed.

With Love,
Tara Padgett

Our friend, Bill Ryan, fell in June and is now paralized from the neck down; he and his wife need our prayers. He has also developed complications and is confined to a VA hospital, and she is so alone.

Thanks

Please remember Barbara, along with her family and friends, in your prayers; she has a large cancerous mass in her liver. She is in acute pain, and very depressed. God has already gotten her through a battle with lung cancer, and we know that with prayer He will get her through this as well if it's His will.



Earlean Fordham had a heart attack 3 weeks ago. Now she is back in the hospital. Was touch and go. She woke up for a while Saturday saying she walked on the Milky White Way. She is very tired. My father was placed in a nursing home several months ago and her partner isn't there anymore. She is having so many health issues. She's had a heart attack, stroke, diabetes and other problems. Please pray for her and for GOD to do His will again.



Michael Novenche is a 2-year-old beautiful little boy in Clifton Park, New York, and the grandson of a very dear friend of mine. A few months ago, he started throwing up and telling Mommy "boo boo in my head." He was brought to the doctors and tests were ran on him, later that week he started losing feeling in the left side of his poor little body. They found a large tumor in his brain.

He was brought to a hospital in Boston where doctors told his family the tumor was too big and it was too risky to operate on it. His aunts and uncle would not give up, they called Beth Israel, then E-mailed Dr. Epstein for him to look at Michael's films. Michael's uncle then drove the films to New York City himself for Dr. Epstein to look at. Dr. Epstein operated but couldn't remove the entire tumor and now he has to go through chemo to keep the tumor from growing and hitting the brain stem.

We need all the prayers we can get for the chemo to kill the tumor entirely. He started chemotherapy on March 28, 2000, and we are hoping desperately that it works. We need all the prayers we can get.

Please stop and say one prayer for this beautiful baby boy Michael when you think about him today. I am asking that each and every one of you please forward this on to everyone that you know. Just think if this was your little child going through this right now. We all know that God can heal this little angel.

Thank you from family and friends of Michael Novenche, but most of all Michael.



Listen, I have a BIG problem. Had to take my wife Carole into ER on Saturday AM. Spent the whole three day weekend at the hospital. She's very very sick- they still don't know for sure what's wrong. Suspect meningitis or some similar infection has invaded her spinal colunmn and brain. More test results due Tues. and Wed. Need your prayers desperately. Don't want to lose her.

Your brother in Christ,
Peter



My good friend, Tommy, age 23, was diagnosed with lung cancer a few months ago. Three sessions of chemo have been completely unsuccessful in treating his cancer. It is spreading rapidly, and he now has 10 tumors. Please keep him in your prayers along with the others. As God's children, it is our privlege to speak to our Father asking him to intervene on behalf of our brothers and sisters. Let us always lift each other up in prayer!

Love,
Judy
