Remember in Prayer:

  • Kayla returned to Cedars Sinai after suffering severe pain last week. After surgery on Tuesday, she was able to eat some soup—which is the only thing she has eaten in months. The pain was relieved, but she is still suffering with pressure. She came home Thursday night. Keep praying!
  • Carol fell week before last, but only found out a week later that there was a break in her ankle!
  • Victoria Belizario had a very painful emergency surgery to remove a sizeable ovarian cyst. 
  • In addition to his near total paralysis, Kirk Stewart has painful cancerous sores on his head, and radiation treatments have been ineffective. No further treatments are planned. Pray for him in the loss of Pat as well.
  • Bob Rivera’s hip is healing, so no surgery is planned after all.
  • Bob asks for prayers for his son, Joseph who is in Israel working security as a contractor.
  • Mina is thankful that she is already doing better, but pray for quick healing.
  • Majid Tafighi, Mina’s brother-in-law, passed away in July. Pray for his wife and family.
  • Continue to pray for Shirley’s family, after her passing and the loss of Brad so recently as well.
  • Melissa King Stansbery is doing well after her surgery, but keep praying!
  • Continue prayers for Maxine King, mother of Melissa. 
  • Galina Gurova, a friend of Melissa, needs healing from lymphoma
  • Morgan Gibson’s dad has been back in the hospital, but has returned to the nursing home. The current plan is to treat the infection in his leg with antibiotics.
  • Minnie’s daughter-in-law, Kayla, is finally home! There will be a learning curve to dealing with her condition, so keep them all in prayer.
  • Vicki and Ken’s daughter-in-law’s mother, Priscilla, is being treated for pancreatic cancer. Pray for successful surgery, treatment, and comfort for the family.
  • Ruthie’s nephew, Will Burgett, has been placed on hospice since the chemo and radiation following his brain surgery have not been effective.
  • Karen’s friends, Jon and Wayne, and colleagues, Eleni, Trish, and Tommy, all have cancer
