Prayer – Gram from the First Presbyterian Church of Redding
Serving Christ & Community since November 17, 1878

In a world filled with chaos,
we pray because prayer is the antidote to anxiety
There simply is no greater work, no greater calling,
no greater ministry than that of intercessory prayer.

Requested by – Nancy Streeter
For – Her brother, Steve Streeter
Prayer for – I had asked for prayers for my brother Steve, who was diagnosed with ALS. He has been dealing with slurred speech and trouble swallowing. He celebrated his 74 birthday on Thursday. He let us know that his church in Davis has organized a team
of people to help him. At the same time, he has been working to place his wife Nancy J. (Jones) in memory care.
During church yesterday he sent another text that he had to go to Sutter Hospital with severe stiffness. A friend drove him there. Nancy J was with them. At the hospital she had chest pains. They checked her out, then a friend drove her home to take
care of her.
This is a sign that Steve's ALS is advancing. The stiffness will affect his mobility, so he will lose his ability to drive. We're thankful that he can communicate with us with his cell phone.
