Dear Friends
What a blessing it is to have you sharing each other's burdens. This is a true gift from God. My request is for a school friend of my sailor's. Amanda and her husband Eric had a beautiful baby Noah born last week. He is a preemie, and is in care for bleeding on his brain. Please support the young parents and their precious baby. Please, God, guide the medical care team. Please keep the parents and family lifted up for encouragement--but also to let them know it is ok to be frightened. Let them know we are all here to help them.
Amen

Good Morning! My nephew, Matt has developed an infection in his pelvis area. They are going to be going in today to draw some fluid to try to identify the type of infection and to determine how to fight it. His spirits are so down, he was supposed to go home last Friday. Please pray for the Lord to touch him and heal this infection. Thank you and God bless you all.

This is from a dear friend of mine....Please remember Hal Ord in your thoughts and prayers over the next few days. Hal is an Iraq War veteran who was seriously injured while on his tour of duty. He is scheduled to have a partial leg amputation tomorrow to ongoing health issues resulting from his injuries. He and his wife have two small boys. They along with their families are in real need of support and prayer. Thanks.

Bugsmom-- I know how scary the news reports have been lately. Please know that I join hands with our Lord as we lift up Matt, your son and all our loved ones.

Good Morning to you all. Sharon, my prayers are with your son and with you. Blondie, Amen! My flags are all flying, put a new one up for today. My nephew, Matt, was supposed to be released from the hospital on Friday, but he spiked a fever late Thursday night. They've done tests and ruled some things out, they also did an ultrasound, and praise the Lord, it was clear, as were his lungs. They believe he contracted an infection from one of the lines they had in his arm. They removed the line and started an IV of antibiotics. His spirits remain very positive, such an amazing young man. I will continue to keep you all posted. Also, my son is about to be moved from one part of Afghanistan to another. Please pray for their safety as they make this move. Thank you and God bless you all.

Blondie, God bless you mom. I know how that feels to need so much to hear from your child. God is great, so glad you heard from her. Somehow the Lord knows what we need and He delivers. I pray that the Lord will continue to keep you in touch with your daughter. Thank you so much for all your prayers. I am thrilled to tell you all that my nephew, Matt, is coming home tomorrow! He has a long road of recovery, but I know the Lord will continue to heal this amazing young man. Thank you all for your continued prayers and support. My brother and sister in law will need your prayers and they continue with his physical therapy and the upcoming surgery he will need. God bless you all!

Amen and amen! Lord thank you for all your blessings. Thank you for being with our young men and women serving in Afghanistan and all the other places in the world. Help them to know that we think of them each and every moment of each and every day. Help them to feel your presence and to know that no matter what they are doing, what they are facing no matter where they are, YOU ARE with them. Bless all their families and help them to know YOU ARE with their loved ones, you never leave their side. In Jesus prescious name Amen!
