PRAISE REPORTS

Lori & Gary Lee – Please keep our son-in-law, Logan, and his sisters, Amy & Allison, in your prayers. Their father recently passed. Also, pray their stepmom will be kind and compassionate to them. Thank you.

PRAYER REQUESTS

Brian in CA. – We are still praying for him. His dad passed, and his stepmom wants to sell the home. He is autistic, so change is difficult. His aunt got another appraisal, which lowered the value, which may be easier for Brian to reach. A previous contact cannot represent, but did send good info. There are still a lot of legal hurdles in front of him. PTL ! He is moving in Brian’s life. Please pray for him.

Bill & Vicki Stoughton – Prayers for Joe Smitelli as he battles cancer, and wisdom for the medical community for his treatment. Please continue your prayers for our son, Stephen, regarding the Lord removing his headaches. Thank you!

Robin Risavi – They are under contract for a new home. Please pray all goes well with the inspection repairs. Robin’s CA125 numbers increased, so her CT & MRI were moved up to August. Her cancer treatment went well. Please pray for Linda for the removal of a breast tumor with a healthy outcome. And, pray for Matt with leukemia.

Tracey Nelms – help me be reminded for God, with God, by God, we are being His Exemplars.
