Monday @ Midday

The WMU meeting at East Fork was well attended.  Kentwood was represented by seven ladies.  We enjoyed hearing Rev. Fred and Mrs. Janice Day share.  They are always so informative and pleasant.  If you missed this meeting, please try to join us for the next meeting.

 

Mr. Bill Parsons is in Lakeside Hospital for stents.  Please be in pray for him, the medical staff working with him, and for the family.  Thanks!

 

Mrs. Rebecca Moak is still at North Oaks, but should be moved to a rehab facility soon.

 

Mrs. Pauline Strickland is home and slowly improving.  Keep praying for her and for her caregivers.

 

Billy Carl Strickland is still waiting for approval to begin treatment.  Keep him in your prayers.

 

Continue to pray for Cora Morris and Andy Taylor who have had a bad time with shingles.

 

Cynthia Vining Smith told me this morning that her sister, Susan, who was by classmate is being evaluated for future treatment.  I’ll update you on Susan later.  Begin praying now.

 

Marsha Chambers Bankston is having tests run at North Oaks today.  Her internal bleeding has been stopped, but the cause of her problem has not been clearly identified.  Keep praying for Marsha and her family.

UPDATE ON MARSHA: Marsha has a large mass in her liver.  Marsha has been released to come home, but will need a liver transplant.  In the meantime the liver biopsy will be further diagnosed.
