Prayer – Gram from the First Presbyterian Church of Redding

Serving Christ & Community since November 17, 1878

we pray because prayer is the antidote to anxiety

 no greater ministry than that of intercessory prayer.

For – Norman & Mary Jean Phelps and family

Prayer for – This is from Mary Jean Phelps, a former member who lives out of state now.

“My husband Norman is in late-stage Alzheimer’s and now has a lump the size of a grapefruit on his left breast. I got the information this week that it is cancer. Doctor hasn’t spoken yet to me, but I will not put Norman through advanced treatment. Please pray for him, and for me to be wise in my decision making. Also, for peace of mind as our family goes through this journey with him.”
