Submitted Prayers & Praise Reports
Anonymous – Please pray for God’s healing touch to open my womb and bless me with a healthy pregnancy. My heart aches with the desire to conceive with my husband.
Pastor Burd – Please pray for him as he ministers God’s Word in the United Kingdom from November 7-17. He is praying for an open door for ministry in Wales (Ephesians 6:18-20).
Charlie Carson – Please pray for my great-niece Becky. She has gone into liver failure and is in the ICU at Einstein Hospital in Philadelphia. Please pray for her recovery
Linda Cooper – Thank you, Calvary Family, for your calls, cards, and visits. Thank you so much for your fervent prayers that have helped me get through the painful recovery. I was strengthened, encouraged, and able to endure and persevere knowing there was family lifting me up in prayer. Thank God for our Savior Jesus Christ, to God be the Glory.
Kristin Kunsman – The bypass surgery done on my mom's (Marj Phy) leg failed. She will be having another angiogram done on November 5 to see if she has a vein that the surgeon can use. After that, a surgery date will be set to do another bypass. Please pray that there will be a viable vein that they can use.
Beverly Matchette – Dear Church Family, thank you so much for your prayers and comforting cards. My dear husband, Richard, suffered in different ways for seven months on a feeding tube. He is with the Lord now and died peacefully in his favorite chair; family and friends were here at that time. There will be a memorial service and luncheon in the future. We already had the viewing, graveside service, and fellowship with family and friends, but we will honor him later, too, at the memorial service.
Rozalia Polianskaia – Please pray for my daughter Miroslava’s mother-in-law. She has brain cancer and was just put on hospice care. Pray that her heart would be soft and tender toward the Gospel and accept Jesus as her Savior.
Norris Sandy - Please pray for Norris; he broke his leg in a bad fall at work. He is recovering at home.
Jeff Seasholtz – Jane is in need of prayer. She is in the hospital, again, with pain and the inability to walk. She needs a hip replacement but needs to meet the criteria for the surgery first. She will more than likely go to a rehab facility next. Please pray for pain relief and a clear direction on the path forward. Thank you.
George Stinson – George has been diagnosed with Atypical Parkinson’s, specifically Corticobasal Degeneration. Please pray as he and Martha journey through this chapter of life.
Gladys Tonnies – Gladys thanks everyone for their continued prayers for her and Norm for their various health issues.
Susan Toolan – Please pray for my friend’s husband, Kevin, to heal from triple heart bypass surgery. Thank you!
Tom Warren – Please pray for Tom. He went into the hospital over the weekend with internal bleeding; they did a CT scan to discover the source. Please pray for healing for Tom, peace for Tom and Linda, and for wisdom for the medical team caring for Tom.
Pastor Burd – Please pray for him as he ministers God’s Word in the United Kingdom from November 7-17. He is praying for an open door for ministry in Wales (Ephesians 6:18-20).
