PRAYER AND PRAISE

Prayer request policy: If you want the prayer request to be private or just between me and you, please say so in the email. I will pray for those requests. If you don’t mind others praying for the request, then just send the request with no restrictions and I will put it in the devotional for other to pray. We don’t include last names in any of our prayer requests. Thank you.

Please pray for the persons whose last name begins with the letter “K” on your prayer list, which includes your address book, church directory and email list.

Please remember to pray for the Biblical churches and pastors in the STATES OF NEW YORK and NEVADA. (REMEMBER THAT IF YOU KNOW BIBLICAL PASTORS IN THESE STATES TO LET US KNOW THEIR NAMES AND CHURCHES AND WE WILL PRAY FOR THEM).

Larry Short: Could everyone please pray for our nephew Kevin? (Kevin’s parents are my brother Don and his wife Gina, whom you old-timers may remember as a prior church administrator here at Elim.) Kevin’s in surgery right now to remove a tumor between the lobes of his brain. The operation is somewhat complicated by the presence of important blood vessels that have diverted somewhat from important functions to feed the tumor. They anticipate surgery will take about 7 hours.

As a one-year-old child, Kevin had serious brain cancer and it was thought he would not likely survive. After years of radiation, surgeries, and chemo, he was declared cancer-free. But he’s struggled with lots of impacts from those earlier procedures, including a series of “meningial” tumors (in the lining of the brain) that are the result of radiation. Kevin is now 32 and has already had one (a few years ago) removed from near an auditory nerve, and one (last year) removed from near one olfactory nerve. The current surgery is to remove the next most dangerous (and one of the faster growing), and won’t address about three others in other places which are still quite small.

I know that many of you know and love Kevin, as we do. He’s quite social and has frequently volunteered at Elim, in addition to formerly attending Elim (a number of years ago).

I’ll let you know how he does, probably tomorrow. Thank you

They called Jesus crazy until He was crucified and then resurrected. Even if people say you're crazy, Keep following Christ-He is waiting for you in heaven! If you love Jesus and are not ashamed, Amen!'
