Ask for Prayer & Pray for Others

Claude and I would like to request continued prayer for our Grandson Gage who had been diagnosed with sepsis. It was determined that he was doing better as his blood counts were normalized at Mat-Su Regional Hospital, so he left to Juneau to start a drug treatment program this past Friday. When he arrived he had developed a fever, and had been admitted to the hospital there. His blood count is at zero, so antibiotics have been stopped. They are trying to determine what to do. Maybe considering bone marrow treatment. Please pray for God's comfort, and guidance. Thank you so much for praying!

Please join me in praying for my friend Mike. He is battling prostate cancer. Due to other medical conditions, doctors do not want to perform surgery. We pray that it progresses slowly to allow time for him to hopefully have have a procedure called HIFU that is reported to have no side effects. Although this procedure is approved by the FDA, it is not yet approved by Medicare. In addition to praying for Mike please also pray that the bureaucracy for the Medicare coverage will advance quickly.

A close friend of mine from high school, Grace Ann, has been diagnosed with abdominal cancer. All four of her grown children traveled home to be with her. She loves the Lord with all of her heart. Please pray in the midst of this trial she will know comfort and and be filled with the peace that only comes from knowing God. Pray also for her husband Joe, their four children, and grandchildren, as they journey through this time together.

Alisha will be getting married August 9th. Please join Jeff and I in lifting up Alisha, Derek, and the boys as they begin their new journey together. May God always be at the center of their relationship and may the wedding go smoothly and create beautiful memories for all. Thank you for your prayers.

My Son Matthew was bitten by one of the Blue Arctic Fox's on the Island, and has developed a severe Bacterial Infection, the Dr. On the Island doesn't think its from the bit, but has put him on Antibiotics and bed rest. (And yes he's had a Tetanus shot). Original Request: Matthew heads to Shema Island at 7:30a.m Tomorrow, he would appreciate your prayers for his family and himself during these next 4 months. God has revealed a need for emotional healing due to issues in his past. It is causing depression and doubt, ( it is grief not dealt with). Thanks for your prayers!
