Friends to Pray For Please pray for the people listed here. They are all at different stages. Some have just been diagnosed, some are in the midst of their diagnosis, some are in remission, and some are now cancer-free. Others have passed away, unfortunately, but we purposefully leave their names on our list so that we can pray for their families. Their situations change, but our God knows what they need each and every day. We can pray boldly for each of these patients/families, even if we don’t know their needs.

9/4/09
Bette Ann (Chicago, IL) Bette has been very recently diagnosed with small cell lung cancer which has partially spread to her liver, and will be starting chemo on Wednesday. They think there is a chance it may have spread into her bones as well, but are not doing any further testing at this time. On a scale of 1 to 10 (ten being the worst) doctors told her she is at a 6. Until she was diagnosed, she served with us on a team who volunteers at a women's homeless shelter, serving the ladies breakfast once a month. She is the mother-in-law of another volunteer who attends church with us. As far as I know, Bette is a non-practicing Catholic who does not have a home church, but seems to be a believer of Christ. I'm not sure how comfortable she would be with a call or home visit; it might be a bit overwhelming for her. But I think she might appreciate a care package. Thank you for doing such a wonderful, selfless thing. God Bless!

Frank (Chicago, IL) prayers requested by a friend.
9/2/09

Pray for the surgery, if I have it, that it goes well without complications and that I can recover quickly. Thank you!”

October 2009 Requests
10/3/09
Lisa (IL.) LISA IS STILL WITH US. However her change has worsened in this life.
She can no longer hold a conversation or return a hug. Her eyes can not
focus. The staff at Dupage Convalescence center pretty much does everything
for her.

Karl (IL.) is a youth leader at our church and a mentor to our teenage son has a brain tumor. The surgeons went into operate yesterday immediately upon realizing. We received word that the mass is so large that they could do nothing. This young man's father was also a pastor who passed away from cancer years ago. Karl is in college working on becoming a teacher and has no insurance. Is there any way you could help us reach a real need with this family. We need God to be glorified through this hard time.
