A very good friend of mine “Sue” was just diagnosed with a very rare lung tumor. On a scale of 1-10 she was told it is probably a 4 or 5. It is not aggressive, but should be dealt with sooner rather than later. Her doctor feels the chances of getting this under control are very high. She has several appointments coming up to discuss treatment options… I’m asking for prayer for her and her husband… She is not born again but she does know the Lord. Please keep her in prayer as she battles this diagnosis. Thank you️

"Ruby" is in her late thirties and pregnant for the first time. "I don't see myself as a mom," she said. "I don't like babies." She seemed conflicted throughout the appointment and had many concerns. Ruby was affected emotionally by hearing her eight-week-old baby's heartbeat but did not want a picture of her baby. She talked with her nurse extensively about her internal tensions. Both she and her husband have medical concerns including chronic pain. Both also share a concern that their difficult childhoods could keep them from being successful parents. However, Ruby went on to say she considers herself a Christian and her faith says abortion is wrong. "It's not fair to the baby to kill it," she said. "I think maybe I could be a good mom." Ruby declined making a second appointment. While she feels conflicted, she stated she is going to look into getting an abortion. Please pray for Ruby, her child and her husband. Pray for the truths Ruby knows to lead her decision making and for God's healing presence in their lives. -------- "Lacey" is a woman in her mid-twenties who describes herself as a gangbanger. She came to her appointment with a lump on her forehead, explaining she was in an altercation the night before. She is pregnant and raising a toddler with her mother's help. Although she said she plans to get an abortion, Lacey was glad to hear the fetal heartbeat and wanted a picture. She did not seem to feel conflicted about ending the life of her child, even as she listened to the beating heart. She has a history of two abortions. When her nurse asked her about her feelings, she said, "It's better not to feel." She went on to explain that the man she is in a relationship with is not the father of this baby and he would be angry if he knew she cheated. When presented with the gospel, she said she considers herself a Hebrew and doesn't believe in Jesus. "Thanks for your services," she said. "I didn't want to go to Planned Parenthood. I'll leave you a good review." Please pray for Lacey and both of her children: her toddler and preborn child. Pray for God to intervene miraculously in their lives to bring life, hope and freedom. Please also pray for her nurse to continue to find strength in the Lord as she ministers to Lacey.

Also, continue to pray for the Lord's comfort and guidance as she deals with her husband's death, and for her salvation. Thank you!

"Dena" is a college student with an African background. She feels she needs to get an abortion because of cultural shame around unmarried pregnancy. Her pregnancy was too early to confirm. When her nurse talked with her about the tensions she is feeling, she said she thinks abortion is wrong but she feels she has no options. She listened to the gospel and allowed her nurse to pray with her. She made a return appointment for next week. Please pray for Dena to lay hold of Christ during this challenging time. Pray for her nurse to be used to have a powerful impact on her life at her next appointment. -------- "Marla" is a high school student who recently found out she is pregnant. "I know I could take care of a baby, I'm just not ready." She said she wants to go to college, be married, and have a house before having children. The father of the baby feels the same way. She is unsure if her family would be supportive of her parenting a child. Marla went on to say, "I know no child is a mistake, but the world is a scary place." After her ultrasound revealed a ten-week-old baby, she and the father of the baby were visibly upset. "It seems more real now," she commented. The father of the baby said he would support her regardless of her decision. Please pray for Marla and the father of the baby to take time to search their hearts this week and for them to consider adoption or parenting.

Please pray for Kathy Burtsell, who has been battling a persistent cough for over a month now, and for Jan Slocum, who continues to suffer from a very painful skin condition, and at times the pain is unbearable. They appreciate your prayers!------- UPDATES: Antoinette P. is anticipating a surgical procedure to evaluate her abnormal swallowing condition. Antoinette said she loves and so appreciates all the prayers coming her way, and is hopeful that this procedure may help her doctors determine why it’s so difficult and painful to swallow. ------- Mike Grabowski had returned home from rehab in time for his birthday, but then was rushed to Strong hospital and admitted for fainting and total body weakness. Mike's faith remains strong, as he knows he is secure with the Lord and thankfully is not letting this set back influence his mind or faith.

My 33 year old niece Courtney has been through 7 mos of chemo for breast cancer. Your prayers are really helping; miraculous healings of tumors in her arm pits and liver have pretty much disappeared. But this Friday she will have a bone scan/cat scan and Monday an MRI. These scans are critical and will determine future plans. We are asking the Lord for complete healing, no tumors and hopefully no more chemo! This last chemo treatnent really hit her hard physically. Bone pain is severe and is hard to walk. And last but not least, I believe Courtney is very close to accepting the Lord's salvation. She has heard the gospel, she is reading the bible and believes your prayers are helping her. I have faith that the Lord has begun a good work in my niece and He will finish it. Amen. Hallelujah!

UPDATE: Please continue to pray for "Minnie". She returned for a second appointment. Her pregnancy was confirmed and she was extremely emotional when hearing her child's heartbeat. She is set to graduate in two months and is worried her pregnancy will be viewed as a violation of student conduct standards at her college. When her nurse shared the gospel with her, she decided to surrender life to Christ. Minnie plans to return for a third appointment after her spring break vacation. Please pray for her relationship with Christ to bloom in this time and for her to fully resolve to keep her child.
