Lisa - 35 years old and just had a mamogram. The results showed a tumor on each breast the size of a quarter.
A biopsy is planned but they don't know the date yet. Pray everything is benign and no cancer present.
Stacy - I have a prayer request. We are going on a mission trip to Zambia, Africa!!! It is an exciting, anxious,
and very emotional trip for us. As you know, we lost our oldest daughter, Michelle, in a car accident on
01/21/2005. She was signed up to go with our church in June 05, but as you know the Lord called her
home very young and she didn’t have to opportunity to go. So we are going in her honor and memory.
My husband, my 17 year old son, my 13 year old daughter, and I are going. Also, we donated some
money towards the building of an International Bible College that will train National Pastors in Africa
to spread the Gospel. As a result of this donation they are dedicating one of the buildings in memory
of Michelle. We are so humbled that God would use us in another country, that He felt we were worthy
to make this journey is amazing to me. I feel so unprepared physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
But yet I know God doesn’t always want us to be “prepared” so He can use us how He sees fit. So please
pray for our safety, our anxiety, our emotions, and that we will be open and receptive to what God wants
us to do and what He wants to do in our lives. I hope and pray that this trip will be a very healing time for
our family. The loss of a child is so devastating to the entire family and we all still struggle daily with our grief.
Thank you for your prayers and please send this out to your email list, if you don’t mind. We need the prayers!!!
Thank you for all that you do!!!!
