Submitted Prayers & Praise Reports
Pastor Burd – Please pray for Pastor Burd as he has many opportunities to preach God's Word in various churches in the Lehigh Valley and beyond. Ask God to give him wisdom and strength (Proverbs 4:7; Psalm 27:1).
JoAnne Creyer – Please pray for JoAnne and her family. Her husband, Richard, went home to be with the Lord on Tuesday, January 6.
Lindsay Gould – Please pray for an uncomplicated and speedy recovery from recent surgery.
Diane Kulp – Thank you, church family, for the prayers, phone calls, and cards concerning the healing of my wrist, which is now doing very well. I am praising God and giving Him all the glory. It is good to be back at church. I really missed everyone. I was able to watch the services online, but it’s not the same as being there in person.
Karen Miller – Please pray that 1) the VBS planning committee keeps Christ in the center of every aspect of planning and that God gives them guidance in every decision, 2) God will provide workers for Calvary Kids and for VBS who are digging into God's Word and being transformed by it, and 3) God brings a harvest of young believers who are zealous for God and His Name through Calvary Kids and VBS.
Richard “Dick” Moatz – We recently learned that Dick, a long-time member of Calvary, who has been living at Alexandria Manor in Bethlehem, passed away on December 22.
Tanya Stiles – My shoulder surgery went well and I am home. Please pray that my recovery goes smoothly. Thank you for all your prayers. An update on her daughter-in-law Bess: Bess had a pet scan on Monday. The doctor said her numbers are going in right direction toward remission.
Gladys Tonnies – Gladys has been in the hospital with breathing issues for the past five weeks. She is now in rehab. Please pray that she can go home soon.
Linda Warren – Please pray for my husband, Tom Warren; he is having a procedure to insert a Watchmen Device in his heart on Thursday, January 15. Because of two serious bleeds (brain and GI bleeds) he has had in the last several months, this device will enable him to gradually get off blood thinners that he has been taking to avoid blood clots for the last 28 years because of Atrial Fibrillation. Please pray for peace and strength; the Lord has always given it to us in our times of need. Thank you, Church Family.
