Prayer & Praise
Set us free, loving Father, from the bondage of our sins, and in your goodness and mercy give us the liberty of that abundant life which you have made known to us in our Savior Jesus Christ; who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
please remember in prayer
Captain Kevin – I’ve been put on an FMLA indefinite leave of absence from my work. Hoping it will only be for a few weeks. My dr put me on a diet, said I need to exercise 15-20 mins per day no matter how I feel, and we’re going to try a new med. I have about 6 days of PTO left. After that, I lose pay for every day I miss.
Duane – A dear friend, Fr. Tom Widner, SJ, has been taken off life support . Pray that God’s will be done…

AA – brother-in-law had a heart attack and is now home with the Lord. Prayers for his family are appreciated.
Linnea – My father-in-law just passed away. He was a man of faith. Will you pray that family members would come to know the Lord…that they would see this man’s faith and works and come to know the Lord? Will you pray that my husband and I would be ambassadors of Christ to this family? I really appreciate it.

Captain Kevin – Please pray for my oldest daughter. She is separated from her husband. This is probably the 3rd time in the 3 years they’ve been married. I’m not sure who is more at fault or if there is any abuse, so I just pray for God’s will. They are believers, I think.
JD – Marshal whose mother told him that she doesn’t love him
John 20:29- my cousin in barring a miracle he’s entering the final stages of his cancer… prayers have been appreciated and heard. .. They’ve brought him some good months.

They’ve been a close couple and now, even tho she is a Believer, she will face growing old without her life partner…
JoelG – filing for custody of my 2 younger teenagers. I found hundreds of explicit photos of my youngest daughter that I’m sure have been shared.

Thank you, dusty… I’ve been wondering about the surfer also… Praying with you
Heard from Jerry this week, no pain, very weak, using walker and having trouble thinking – but God has been so good as Jery comes down to his last days… He is so grateful for the prayers as thru it all they have had blessing upon blessing…
Yes, dusty and Em, joining you in prayer for surfer51, Jerry, Lurkie Loo’s friend, and Jerry….
Would you keep, we’ll call them D & S, in your prayers as they prepare to marry? D. comes from a Vatican 1 Catholic family, lost her Dad to suicide, and has asked her brother,J, a friend of our children, to walk her down the aisle as she marries S. S has refused to become Catholic, so D’s mother, all her siblings, cousins, her grandmother and aunts are boycotting the wedding. It’s a sad situation and the brother, J, feels torn between his sister and the rest of the family. Please pray that Christ will prevail, they will all come to know Him, and that this wedding becomes a reason for rejoicing and peace.
I meant Vatican 2, but 1 may be even closer to the truth!
An interesting aside as i read Linnea’s 3:39… 3 of my Pilgrim Holiness/Nazarene grandparents’ 6 children married Roman Catholics as did my late husband’s mother… My grandparents were accepted and respected by the in laws and our local Priests as were we by the RC side … shame on these people – IMO ?
Will pray, but wonder if the in laws to be may have other issues.. maybe separation is good?
Em…you are a wise woman. Yes, I do think separation is good, but it’s killing the daughter and pulling the family apart. I feel for them. I want them to start their marriage on a strong foundation and right now, it’s crumbling beneath them.
