A friend needs prayer!

Please pray with me for Darryl and Lois Hayes, Lois fell last night trying to help Darryl get furniture back into the living room. She had no business trying to move furniture but you go tell her that. Lois has Lupus among other things. Darryl has had a heart transplant among other things. I pray that Lois will be ok, she is going to be sore in the morning. God can make it all ok. Our wonderful Father said He would do what we ask in Jesus name. So I ask that you pray with me that He will touch this couple and give them strength to pull through.

Billy Etheredge has been having great difficulty with his health in the last year or two. Billy, Debbie and family need our prayers and support. He is on oxygen constantly, cannot work, been to numerous doctors, to Denver, etc. Billy is a diabetic but the problems he's having may or may not be related to that. He and Debbie and family have made numerous trips to E.R. etc. All of the family is in Amarillo and would appreciate prayers, cards. Andy is married to Shelley Hunt(formerly). So, except for Billy Bob's wife they have all lived and worshiped in Dumas for many years. Billy was a youth Bible teacher for a substantial time when Dan was here. Also a youth director and leader at Calvary and other churcher prior to that.Debbie I think played the organ and piano for most churches in Dumas, at least it seems so, and many outside of Moore County. Please lift them up to the Lord. Billy needs encouragement, hope, and maybe a miracle. But God's Resources are limitless. Let us remember these beautiful people as well as those other ones in our church family who face comparable difficulties. If we would only do our duty and minister we would be the one(s) most blessed. God Bless Our Chuch Family and Friends.

A friend of mine in Amarillo has a 9 month old baby boy, Jimmy, who went into surgery this morning. He only weighs a little over 10 lbs. and the doctors cannot figure out why he wouldn't gain any weight.

Please keep this sweet baby boy in your prayers... mom, dad, and big brother as well. Thank you, Elizabeth Tapp

Please Pray

David went to his doctor in Lubbock today and didn't get such good news. He has been a severe asthma sufferer for his entire life, but it has just in the last 3 or so years gotten a lot worse. He and Matthew both see the same allergy doc in Lubbock who has been working on trying to get David better since December of 2008. Today, the doctor informed him that he has what is called Paradoxical Langospasm. Basically they don't know what causes the disease, but there isn’t' a cure and the medication to control is just kind of trial and error. Some people react to one thing and some to others. He is on 8 different medications currently to control the asthma and allergies, and the doctor added one more today saying that if it doesn't work, that he will just have to have breathing treatments every 4-6 hours, in-definitely, plus continue his current regiment of medications. There are a lot of things we need to change about our daily lives to help control this, but he is still sick, and the doctor says he won't really go away either . Please pray for healing from the ULTIMATE HEALER. We know he can do all things, we just need to ask. I ask that you please say that prayer for David as we try to make this less difficult on him. In His Love,Elizabeth Tapp

Thanks and more prayer requests

Thank you for your prayers for my wife, Juana James, Juana came through the surgery (right knee replacement) just fine. She is still in a lot of pain and discomfort of course, so I ask you to keep her in your prayers. She is supposed to get to come home towards the end of this week. Also, I have a friend, Phaedra Medlock who has heart problems. Phaedra is a veteran, she is waiting for a heart. I know that with prayer God can fix the heart she has. Praise God. Also, please remember me in your prayers, week before last I had a glimpse of life without back pain, the doctors put a stimulator in my spine and it was a test to see if it would work before the insurance company would approve it. It worked just fine, so when Juana gets back to driving again they will install it permanently so I want be in pain when I walk. Thank you in advance. To God be the Glory.

My cousin and his wife are expecting their 2nd child and she was just laid off of her job, and she is the one carrying the insurance. Also he was laid off last year, and has been staying home with their oldest boy, because of the cost of child care, it just seemed to make sense.

She is 22wks pregnant, his name is William, and the sonogram showed that he has spina bifida of the entire lumbar spine, part of the thoracic spine, and has swelling of the left lobe of his brain. The Dr.'s said that at 26wks, they could possibly do surgery, but the Dr.'s are not hopeful. They believe that God can heal their baby, and are asking for our prayers.

Amanda Hendricks has asked prayers for safety for her and her fellow missionaries. They are missionaries in North Africa at orphanages and being removed from the country. Their concern is for their safety, plus the concerns for the children who have only known these missionaries as their parents all their lives. Amanda told her mother, Beverly Hendrick, that right now some of her co-workers have been removed and some like her are still at the orphanage w/ the children, but having to be very careful. They are being watched everywhere they go. Also, the Embassy is closed on the weekends, thus they can't reach anyone for help at that time. Please pray for their safety and protection while continuing to be ministering to these children. Pray for the children for the lose of the only family they know.

Please continue to pray for Gerald. We are still trying to get his knee replaced. Going on 5 years. He is now having his heart worked on. He had an angioplasty done where they found 2 arteries blocked. One was 90% blocked and the other was 98% blocked. They fixed the 90% blocked one and went in on Jan. 28th to repair the other one. He had that one "roto rootered," like a plumber digging out of blocked pipes. Pray for us to have travel mercy. We will be in San Antionio at the VA Med Center. Kent is doing well have he had a bone graft done about 5 weeks ago. We are enjoying watching his kids play basketball. Next week he goes to the doctor, where they will work on getting him to bend his knee. He hasn't been able to do that since his surgery.

Prayer for strength and healing

John had back surgery on December 23rd and I chose to not mention it much because we thought it was going to be in and out with no problems. However, I am reaching out to ask for prayer from our church family for his recovery. He is not bouncing back like always in the past. He has had a high fever for 5 days off and on and has no appetite nor energy at all. Right now we do not know why. He just honestly does not feel good. We feel, like maybe the two back surgeries were too close together and he over did a lot of activity before this last surgery and he is having difficulty recovering. Our family would like to please ask you to lift him in prayer for strength and healing. God Bless you all. We know things could be much worse, but I sure want to see that smile and energetic person again.

Thanks,
Haltom Family

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.

Pray for safe travel and answers

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. We aren't sure of anything else on the agenda. We'll see when we get there! We plan to have a good Thanksgiving where ever we are! (The plan was to eat with Kent & family.) 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

He needs your prayers for healing. She needs your prayers for strength.

Pray for strength and healing and praise the Lord!!

Please pray for Richard's baby sister. We just found out today that she has stage 4 stomach cancer and was taken to Amarillo this morning. All they can do is chemo. Her name is Ellen Schollenbarger and lives in Dumas. She lost her husband little over a year ago with cancer. Thank you so much for the prayers for my brother. He is cancer free, and we are praising God for this miracle. The doctors say it will come back in 6 months or 6 years. We pray it does not.
Keep me in your prayers. I hope to get the surgery on my knee next month. I do not get out much because it hurts so much to walk.
I love this church and God has really blessed us as a church with Bro. Jerry. Church pray for him as he leads this church family.
God Bless, Mary Hall

My sister called last night and told us that her husband Juan has his imigration hearing today at 11:00 in Boise, ID (that's 10:00 our time). The judge may decide to send him back to Mexico right then and there. And on top of it all, my sister found out Sat that they are expecting. This is all very overwhelming, and they don't know what there next turn is. They are asking for prayer, and I thank you all for praying for them. God's will is perfect, now we just have to find out what his will is.

Update on Ed's Mom and Zeke

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.
