Friday

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations,

baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.”

~Matthew 28:19a~

“Go” could mean around the world, across the country, somewhere in the state, or in your neighborhood.  Just “Go”!

Mr. Raymond Anthony is home again about another trip to North Oaks.  He will no longer be taking chemo.  Continue to pray for him and his family.

Betty Taylor continues to have problems adjusting to her medicine change.  Say an extra prayer or two for Betty and Andy.

Mrs. Hellen Morris is better after the procedure done last Friday.  Pray for her as she continues to improve.

Pray for Susan Rimes as she has tests and procedures set up to get rid of new kidney stones.

Miss Laura Joiner is continuing to progress from her fall.  Pray for her as she is still housebound most of the time.

Continue to pray for Mrs. Evelyn Bridges and Mrs. Lois Bridges.  These ladies have been “slowed down”, but neither one has thought about giving up.

Pray for Kara Walker Faller as her second child is born today.  Rev. Dennis Walker will be grandpaw again!

Louisiana Disaster Relief teams will be going to do “ash-out” where fires have destroyed so many home.  Pray for them as they find a new way for minister to others.

Have a wonderful Friday!

Thursday Addition

Pray for all those involved in the tragic situation in LaPlace this morning.  My heart breaks for those young, dedicated officers and their families.  We need to recognize the work they do daily all across our country and let them know we appreciate them.

Pray for Andy and Betty Taylor.  This has been a hard week for them medically.  May God continue to use them as they serve Him.
