 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 – Cathie Burns

For – Her family

Prayer for – Dear church family:  After the service today, I learned that my brother-in-law had died peacefully and without pain this morning surrounded by his family.  He had not yet started treatment for the brain tumor but apparently had a pulmonary embolism which was inoperable and untreatable due to his other health issues.  Everyone in the family was able to talk to him beforehand and though they are exhausted, they appear to be calm and at peace.

Please pray for their strength and calm during this time, wisdom for decision-making, and that they will feel the Lord's presence and protection during this time.

I'm appreciative and grateful for this community of prayer warriors.

Requested by – Cathie Burns

For – Her brother-in-law Barry

Prayer for – Dear Church family:  I'm seeking prayers for my brother-in-law Barry, who lives with my sister Judy in New Jersey.  He has been diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor.  He is already having memory and judgment issues and the prognosis is not good.  However, radiation can shrink this type of tumor and is often combined with chemo.  Barry has chosen to pursue this treatment, which was scheduled to start this week.  Unfortunately he is now back in the hospital for heart and blood pressure issues and thus, everything is delayed. 

Please pray for Barry and his family for strength, comfort, healing and clarity with regard to decision making as well as for the wisdom, expertise and skill of his doctors.

Thank you, prayer warriors,
