Prayer Requests 4/30/09

Here are the prayer requests from tonight's Love in Action feeding.

There were several praise reports from our guests and volunteers tonight. Scott, who just had cancer surgery, was with us tonight and in very good spirits. He told me he was shaving this morning and found himself on his knees in grateful prayer for having a comfortable bed to sleep in and for making it through the surgery with his eye and vision intact. Please continue to keep him in your prayers, as he recovers from the surgery and enters the next phase of his recovery. He repeated how much your prayers mean to him and to his mother as well.

Jamal happily reported he got a room last week. We've been praying for him for a few months, and it's exciting to see God working in his life. A few weeks ago he got his green card and social security card so that he could work. Then he found a few small paying jobs. Now he has a room and is no longer on the streets. His kids, who have been living with their grandmother, have a place to visit him now.

Gary wanted you all to know how much your ongoing prayers have meant to him. He's starting a new experimental chemotherapy tomorrow and is scared. The last set of chemo treatments were unimaginably awful, and Gary said only the visits and prayers of people from our ministry got him through it. In particular, a Bible study with Jon and Pery last Tuesday night gave him a sense of peace as he continues his cancer battle. Please hold Gary very close to your hearts this week.

We're looking forward to seeing any and all of you at the Serve.Everybody. events being held this weekend (5/1 - 5/3/09) at Hope Central. Follow the Christ Church link in the upper left-hand corner of this website for more information.
Blessings,
