Pray for strength!

I worked for a wonderful Christian man in Louisiana who is now laying in M.D. Anderson hospital in Houston. I am requesting prayer for God's will. This man is strong, but when I talked to him today on the phone he sounded weak. I ask him if I could put him on our prayer list and he said please do. So here is the request, he has the cancer of the lungs from breathing asbestos it starts with an M but I can't spell it. It has spread from his lungs to the rest of his body they are taking out organs that I thought you had to have to live. So for Joe 14 please pray for God's Will to be done. May God Bless.
Your Brother in Christ,
Frank James

Pray for healing and strength.

Please be in prayer for Rhonda Stafford and her family. Rhonda’s mother, Floydean Shook, had surgery last Thursday morning to remove a tumor from her colon the size of a football. Floydean came through the surgery and recovery very well; however, when the doctors tried to remove the ventilator she went into cardiac arrest. They have revived her and have her in a paralyzed state until tomorrow when they try to take her off the ventilator again. Please pray for Floydean for healing, for Rhonda and her brothers Rex and Eddie Shook and for their families during this difficult time. Diane Ball and Melody Boswell

Pray for relief from the pain.

Please pray for my wife Juana, she is having so much trouble with her knees, she is in constant pain. She is supposed to see the doctor soon, but I do not know when. But if you would just pray that she could get some relief until she can have surgery I would appreciate it and that we will find a doctor that will do the surgery. Thanks for all the prayers for me these last few months they were greatly appreciated. Now I need to get Juana well. Thank You in advance.
Your Brother in Christ,

Gerald's total knee has been postponed. He failed the Thallium Stress Test last Wednesday! His Cardiologist saw something he didn't like. He called this afternoon with the following news. Leave in the morning for San Antonio VA. We have to be there around 1 PM @ admissions. The angiogram will be the next day...we think, after talking with Admissions in San Antonio.

Hopefully we will be back for that. Please pray for our travel safety and the procedure. Hope you all have a Happy Thanksgiving! Don't eat too much Turkey! May God Bless You.

Just wanted to ask for you to lift up in prayer, Gerald's brother, Jimmie Hunt. He and his wife, Gerry, went to Michigan last week to visit his daughter, Shawnda & family. A couple of days ago we got word that Jimmie fell and sat on his ankle, breaking it in 3 places and dislocating his ankle joint. He had to have it repaired at 10 AM, Texas time Nov. 3rd. He will have to stay off it for 2 months. Luckily at the hospital there, they have an on staff Orthopedic Surgeon that specializes in ankles. They will fly back to Post as soon as he is able to fly. My sister, Norma, had surgery on her right shoulder the 26th of October. She is doing very well. Today I talked with her and her pain only got up to a 2. The only other time she was in the hospital was when she had her 3 girls!!!! Unbelievable!! If all goes well, Gerald will have his total knee replacement Nov 30. He has to have a chemical stress test before the cardiologist OK's the surgery. Our son Kent Stephens will have surgery on his right knee around the 18th of December. Thank you for your prayers. I know prayers work because a year ago the circulation in Gerald's legs was 50%...now it is 75%!!!
Love to all,
Karen Hunt

Ed's Mom is much better. We are waiting for results from the doctor's tests.

Zeke came through the MRI with no problems. He has been diagnosed with Partial Complex Seizure Disorder. This can be controlled with medication and some careful handling. He should outgrow this in 3-5 years. The doctors say he is healthy, intelligent and a bit on the ornery side - something we already knew but were blessed to hear.

Thank you for your prayers.
