Tuesday

Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts,

since as members of one body

you were called to peace.

And be thankful.

~Colossians 3:15~

(Peace and thankfulness – May we all have an extra large helping of these today!)

 

Update on Connor Corkern

My dear friends, if everything goes smoothly with Connor tonight (which we expect it will) he will have his ventilator extubated in the morning.

We need your prayers…
•Please pray with Coye and I that this time around Connor’s lungs will be ready and strong.
•Please pray that his secretions will be thin enough for him to cough up.
•Please pray that his body can maintain the energy it requires to breathe easily when awake and sleeping.
•Please pray that God’s grace surrounds us as we watch and wait to see if Connor’s extubation will be successful.
•Please pray that if Connor’s extubation fails that we will be guided in the direction that God leads us to and have peace with whatever may come in order for Connor to breathe easier.
•Please pray for his doctors, nurses, and therapists that have taken exceptional care of him, and will continue to do so.

We know our Heavenly Father hears our prayers as he has shown us His mercy for the past 3 weeks over and over again.

 

Mrs. Flo Hatcher‘s new medication for nausea has worked for five days!  That has made a big difference for her, the family, and caregivers.

 

Please continue to pray for Mr. James Miller as he undergoes testing at a Covington hospital.

 

Mrs. Gloria Boone and her family wish for our continued prayers.

 

David Wickham – David’s obituary will be posted when it is available.  In the meantime, pray for the family.

Georgia Barnette Offering for Louisiana Missions

We have collected 77% of the goal that we set for out church.  Personally, I never would have been pleased with 77%.  I trust we will meet this goal now that the shoeboxes are filled and shipping collected.  Our church asks a lot, but the mission-minded people in our church have big hearts and a giving/sharing spirit.
