Submitted Prayers & Praise Reports
Charlie Carson – Charlie fell on Saturday and landed on his bad side. He had a goose egg on his right temple from the fall. Please pray for his balance to improve and for his recovery from this fall. N10/5
Paul & Suzy Cressman – We are celebrating the birth of our 6th grandchild, Elliott Hays Cressman, who was born early at 30 weeks, 3lbs 5oz. Please pray for his continued and steady growth and for Kristin and Shawn as they navigate this early arrival of their precious son.
Dave & Lisa Henry (Calvary missionaries) – Join us in praying that God would keep the door open for children in the Allentown School District to have opportunities say "YES" to Jesus! A Deputy Superintendent has issued a letter attempting to silence all faith-based afterschool clubs. Pray that the Lord would grant her an opportunity to know His Grace! Pray that those in power in the SD who do trust the Lord would have courage to stand against this unjust decision.
Bob McMahon – Bob had a kidney removed at Sloan Kettering on 7/17. His eGFR and creatine were normal and his blood pressure was excellent. Since surgery, his eGFR has been 46 and creatinine 1.52, since he only has one kidney. He recently was told he needs an Echo and nuclear stress test of his heart. His blood pressure has fluctuated between 117/67 and 170/90. High blood pressure will destroy his remaining kidney. Please pray that his blood pressure goes down and his kidney enlarges, his eGFR goes up much higher, he gets good results of Echo and nuclear stress test scheduled for mid-October, and that he gets in fast to an excellent kidney specialist.
Karen Miller – Please pray for the parents who place their children in Calvary Kids classes to grow in the knowledge of God, to love Him and serve Him with their whole heart, and to lead their children to do the same.
Maggie Shiner – Please pray for my upcoming knee surgery in December and for back pain.
Tanya Stiles – Physiatrist is referring me to another pain doctor that has a new procedure that is minimally invasive to clean the arthritis away from my spinal cord. It’s outpatient. Please pray that the doctor considers my MRI to be a candidate for this relatively new procedure. It’s been very successful for others. My appointment is on October 12. The doctors are trying to avoid major surgery. Thank you for all your prayers on this journey. Trusting God for His outcome.
John Watters – Please pray for my mom, Chrissy, who recently had a bad fall and hit her head. She was admitted to the hospital for tests and observation. Pray for wisdom and guidance for the doctors on how to treat her and for a complete recovery.
