Prayers & Praises

Thanks for all the prayers this week! It was not pneumonia, the doctor took an x-ray of my chest and saw some scar tissue so he is sending me to a lung specialist next week. Please pray that it was only a shadow or something and they can find why I'm having trouble breathing. God is my rock. Thank you for all your prayers.

Please keep remembering our son-in-law Jim Clements he is back to work (light duty and he is hating that he is ready to get back on his motorcycle) but he still has some headaches. Also I ask that you pray for Mary and Charlie Davis they are having some problems with upper respiratory problems like all the rest of us.

And lets keep John Haltom in prayer, pray that this surgery works to give him relief from pain.

Don't forget to give thanks to the Lord for Bro. Jerry and family. I hear excitement in the voices of our congregation again like I haven't heard since I have been here. PRAISE THE LORD. Sorry for the long request. I get carried away when I'm excited, and I am excited about what the Lord is doing at First Baptist. Your brother and sister in Christ, Frank and Juana James

Continued Prayer Request

Ralph Bynum's daughter, Tammy, is doing well from her breast cancer surgery, but will have to start chemo treatments twice a week for a month, beginning this week. Ralph is half way through his daily chemo/radiation treatments for his esophagus cancer. Please be in prayer for them as it is very hard to not only go through this treatment, but to be unable to see each other and receive mutual father/daughter TLC. (Tammy had planned to come visit her dad this week, when she found out she would be starting the chemo.) Judy Watson

Update on John Haltom

John Haltom has received a telephone call from his surgeon, the trial run for the stimulators to be put in his back will be scheduled the first part of March. Then if they are successful after 3 days, they will schedule surgery to put them in permanent. As of last night the pain is still the same, but he was able to straighten his back and walk more upright. We don't know what has happened there, but we give God always the Glory for any changes for the best. Thank you all for prayers and continued lifting. The Haltom Family

Lifting Up

Frank James is in Amarillo at the doctor. He may have pneumonia. Please pray for him. Helen Snell
