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.

For – Update for Janet Yun
Prayer for – Praise the Lord, Janet Yun is once again on track with her back surgery! God is ever faithful in expediting this so quickly after her original surgeon left town. She is now scheduled for pre-op at Enloe Medical Center in Chico on November 25th,
and the initial two-part surgery is scheduled for December 16th. She is thankful to have hope in the near future that she will be relieved of the excruciating back pain she’s been living with. Please pray for peace to surround her as she prepares for the surgery,
safe travel to and from Chico, and great precision and skill for the surgeon and those attending her.
Janet may need some help with driving to Chico for appointments. If you’re available, please contact her at
janet...@gmail.com.

Requested by – Jeanie Holt
For- Janet Yun
Prayer for – Please be in prayer for Janet as she is suffering with severe back pain and having to rely on pain meds to get through each day. She was originally scheduled to undergo major back surgery this week. The surgery was to be done in two separate procedures,
one to go through the front of her body to insert discs and metal plates. The second procedure was go through her back to insert bolts. She’s been isolating to avoid infection prior to the surgeries and preparing for everything to be done, counting the days
until the pain could be alleviated.
About 10 days ago she was advised that her surgeon has decided to leave California and move to South Carolina for family reasons. Her surgery has been cancelled, and she has been referred to a new spine surgeon in Chico as there are none in Redding. At this
point she has to start all over with the new surgeon.
Please pray that the new surgeon will expedite the processing for her surgery so that everything can move forward and she can be relieved of the pain. Pray also for endurance to manage the pain, and for any logistical issues to be resolved smoothly.
Cards may be sent to 523 Reddington Dr. Redding, 96001.
