Submitted Prayers & Praise Reports

Linda Cooper – Pray for healing. I have a herniated disc that needs to be removed. Pray for God’s wisdom for the doctors’ experience, skill and knowledge. Pray that the epidural works so I won’t have to get the surgery. Pray that Jonathan, my grandson, will draw closer to Christ and realize the Bible is the true Word of God. Pray for Al’s family for God’s comfort and strength as they prepare for the funeral of his sister (22 years old) who was murdered by her ex in Allentown. Pray for strength and provisions for the baby that was not harmed and strength for the aging grandmother who will be raising her granddaughter’s baby.

Georgia Dooley – Please pray for my sister, Joan (FL). She fell and broke her hip and had surgery on Saturday, July 26. Also pray for my friend Judi (AZ). She will soon have a biopsy of her Pancreas. It will bring direction for a specialized treatment plan for her cancerous tumor. May God bring healing and restoration to their weary bodies as they continue to trust and love Him. Isaiah 40:29-31

Kathy Kalavoda – Thank you for your prayers!! My surgery was canceled for at least three months. I have a blood clot in my calf that is quite large. Pray that it will not break off and travel to my heart, head, or lungs.

Joe Mihalik – This is mostly a praise. I want to thank everyone for their cards and prayers, past, present, and continuing. The good news with my adventure with relapsed Mantle Cell Lymphoma is CT and PET scans and blood markers have confirmed my treatments are working. All enlarged lymph nodes have been resolved. So technically I'm in remission. Treatments will continue for some time because the goal is to put me in remission and keep me there. However, a downside of these treatments is they affect my immunity, a common side effect. For the entire month of June, I dealt with a cough and congestion diagnosed as bronchitis. This continued into the first week of July and developed into pneumonia, for which I was hospitalized for two and a half days. The good news is that I am 95 percent recovered from the pneumonia. Pray that additional treatments to increase my immunity will be successful, and in time, I will be able to attend church live. Blessings to you all. Philippians 1:19-21

Shannon Osinski – Thank you to everyone for all your prayers and encouragement as I continue my treatment for Ehlers Danlos Syndrome in Arkansas. The treatments are working, and I am very encouraged in the progress I am making. I would appreciate your continued prayers as I finish up and come home to PA soon.
