Lucille Jones

Please keep Lucille Jones in your prayers today. She has thyroid cancer. She is having her thyroid removed today at Wilkes-barre General hospital. Much thanks!

Mim Musser

Would you please pray for Mim? She started her first chemotherapy treatment at Tyler this past Thursday. She tolerated it well, is having no nausea, PTL, but by Saturday was experiencing extreme fatigue. Then, today,(Tuesday), she became very dissoriented, having trouble remembering things like her birthdate, what month it is, etc. Her husband took her to Dr.and they discovered she was very dehydrated and low on sodium (she thinks). After tests and an IV she went home this afternoon. This may be due to all her medications, insulin and chemo, but they want her to have another MRI. She will be having chemo treatments each Thursday until further notice, which do not help her struggle to maintain her sugar level, as she has no functioning pancreas. Please pray for physical healing, as well as spiritual strength to not become discouraged or fearful, and that her doctors will come up with the best treatment plan for her.

Becky Roman--requests

Justin Bach, Curt and Barb Bach's son, is currently being hospitalized for severe heart arrhythmia and will be having a heart catheterization procedure done. He is stationed in Germany right now. Please keep him and his family in prayer.
Also, my brother Paul has an appointment with a neurologist at the end of this month to discuss all of his test results. Please pray that they were able to find answers and that it is something that can be treated.
Thanks!

Bethany Empfield,

I would like to encourage all of you to send cards to Bethany Empfield. Since the car accident in December she has been in a lot of pain and her spirits are getting low. Thank you!

Tonya St Clair's friend

I'm writing for prayer for a family I know in Pittsburgh who lost their 19 year old son recently. He was at a school stadium and fell off the bleachers...went into a coma and died. I know one of their close family friends and she and her daughter are heartbroken. I would greatly appreciate if you could pray for the family.

Thanks, Tonya

Patti Skovronsky

On Thursday the 14th I begin teaching "Lord, Heal My Hurts" by Kay Arthur at the women's faith based prison here in Florida. Most women are in for prostitution, drugs and alcohol and were abused either physically, sexually or emotionally or all of the above growing up. I could have 30 women sign up.
We'll seek healing through the word of God. Thank you! (Yes it's very cold in Florida. In the 30's. 70 on Friday.) Patti Skovronsky

Bethany Empfield

Over the holidays Ann and Bethany were in a car accident. They were stopped behind a school bus when another car hit them from behind. Ann is recovering, but Bethany has pain and trouble with her neck. She has acute muscle spasms that keep her head bent down to her right shoulder as well as a herniated disc with an annular tear. She is unable to lift her head. Please pray for recovery and relief from pain. Thank you!

Donna Stang

Thank you all for your prayers. God must have thought it was too early for Alayna to be delivered. When the doctor arrived yesterday he sent me home. He didn’t see any reason to induce me a week early as the PA who scheduled the induction did. So it looks like we will be repeating everything next Friday, if she doesn’t come on her own. Thank you so much for all your prayers!

Susan Russell

Susan’s previous surgery revealed the infection was worse then they thought. It goes up her entire spine. The scans of her back indicated that the bones may have fused together in the last several months-- which is good news. Susan is in surgery right at this moment. The doctors are hoping to be able to remove both rods if the bones actually have fused. Unfortunately though, some curvature of the spine will return. One good note would be that Susan felt relief from all her pain after the doctors opened her up. She is on an antibiotic IV to continue to fight the infection. Please continue to pray for her and the family. Thank you!

Donna Stang

We would love your prayers on Friday, 1/9. We will be going to the Geisinger Hospital in Wilkes-Barre to be induced. We are grateful for all your prayers through out the entire pregnancy. God bless you all as you have blessed us!

Kurt and Donna Stang

Susan Russell,

Susan Russel had an infection in the area which she had back surgery last year. She went to Danville tonight to be checked out and they took her into the OR to see how deep the infection is. The families prayer is that it will not be any deeper. Please hold her in prayer. Thank you!

Susan Mattocks cousin

Please keep Kristen Wilson, Susie's cousin, in prayer. Kristen's father passed away yesterday and she is taking it very hard. Thank you!

Patti Skvronsky's niece,

Jennifer had a PET scan and it was a good report, the chemo is working! Thank you Lord! She was relieved. A few more chemo treatments, another PET scan and then radiation. Pray she and her family will start attending church after the flu season and when she is finished with treatment. All He asks for is our faith. Have a blessed Christmas. Again, I can't thank you enough for your prayers. In His name, Patti Skovronsky

Bev Hordesky--relative

Please pray for my brother's mother-in-law. She has been having trouble with her heart. They put a pacemaker in, but they can't get her heart rate regulated--keeps spiking real high. She can't go home from the hospital (has been in since Thursday) til they get it under control. Thanks Bev

Don Catlettt,

Don has been feeling a little better each day since this weekend. Sleeping and eating are coming a little easier. The itching and the jaundice are going away very slowly, but they are going – and that’s good news. Neither of us would have planned this, but God did. He knows His plans, even when we don’t!

We are so grateful for the prayers, the help and the encouragement we’ve received from the body of Christ! If Don feels up to it, we hope to be worshipping with you this next Sunday morning. Thank you all,

Darlene

Don Catlett

Don is at Geisinger Wyoming Valley Hospital for tests. I think I understand that they've found a blocked bile duct. He's in good spirits, considering that I am in California fora week for a friend's memorial service. Specifically, we'd like prayer that the eyes of the medical personnel will see everything Gd wants them to see.

Thanks!

"Jennifer is doing miraculously well after her 4th chemo treatment in Phili. She herself is amazed. She will have a PET scan in 2 wks. to see if the chemo has shrunk the tumors.
I keep telling her, '100's of people are praying for you.' As far as her spiritual growth.....only the Lord knows. Again, thank you for your prayers. Patti Skovronsky"

Betty Gary

Betty wanted to praise God that her surgical removal of a tooth went well. The pain and bleeding is minimal. She would like us to continue to pray that it will heal with no complications. Thanks!
