This is an update on the 3 people I put on prayer list last week. My Sister- in-Laws mother passed away and was buried last Thursday. She was 88 years old and lived a great life. Frank’s brother Mike’s surgery was cancelled till Dec. 19th. My brother’s knee replacement was a success. Thanks for posting this.
