Jasmine is my future daughter-in-law. Her dearly loved, frail grandmother, Mary Margaret, broke her arm last week. While in the nursing home recovering, her bowel became obstructed and burst, leading to emergency surgery. Her prognosis is grim. Jasmine was raised as a secular Muslim with some Catholisim mixed in, but is open and curious about my faith. She requested our prayers. My son is not following the Lord he prayed to receive as a boy. Please pray that God will intervene in her grandmother's situation in such a way that His power and mercy are obvious. Join me in praying for Jasmine's and Matt's salvation--for Jasmine's family's salvation--that Mary Margaret truly knows Jesus as Lord--and for a miracle of healing that cannot be denied or explained away. May the Lord bless you. In this season of Thanksgiving, I am truly grateful for your love and support as the Body of Christ.

Please pray for my boyfriend and his family. His cousin was 21 and just married nine days ago. He was killed yesterday in a motorcycle accident. He left behind his young wife. Their whole family is heartbroken. The visitation is tomorrow night with the funeral Thursday afternoon. The funeral is going to take place in the same church the wedding occurred at nine days ago - please pray for travel mercies for all those traveling up for the next two days' events and also pray as this will be unimaginably hard for everyone.

Please be in prayer for my dad. He recently had several surgeries including one on his knee. His knees have been bothering him for over a year and he is in a lot of pain because of them. I think that he is discouraged that hey aren't healing as fast as he would like. Please pray that they would heal and the pain would ease. Thank you.

Our daughter and family live in Penang, Malaysia. They have been teaching at Dalat International School for three years. Rich has been chaplain, and Kerry's been teaching high school engligh. God has used them there and blessed very much. They are seeking to know if the Lord has a different plan for ministering there in Malaysia. Their prayer request and ours is that God would give them a plain path and confirmation of what His best plan is. Thank you so much for praying.

Please remember all those, as my cousin Berdina, who are facing their imminent homegoing in the next few days. Pray the presence of the Lord, and His blessed peace, will so fill their room that all fear is gone. Pray their passage into His eternal life will be a joyous acceptance of earthly death with peace and contentment that only come by faith in Jesus Christ as Lord. (Berdina is under Hospice care in her home and will likely depart this life from the same farm home where she was born eighty years ago, and has lived continuously all her life, surrounded by family and friends.)

I recently requested prayer for my mom. She had brain surgery Friday morning and it went extremely well. The doctors were pleased and said it couldn't have gone better. I am so encouraged by the power of prayer. She is coming home tomorrow (monday), but there is a long road of recovery that awaits. Please continue to pray for progress and this recovery time. Thanks!

My mom was diagnosed with a brain tumor about a month ago. Thankfully it is benign, but surgery is still required to remove it. She will undergo an extensive 10 hour surgery Friday morning at 730AM. There is much risk to this surgery but we have great confidence that the Lord will bring her through and sustain our family. Please keep her and my family in your prayers during this stressful time.

I have put my situation on the prayer request system before but I will be needing prayer tonight and tomorrow more than ever. I am a nursing student that can't declare my major. I am at risk of failing my Chemistry class and if I do not pass it, I will be unable to continue in the nursing program. I have my first exam since I found out I was failing tomorrow morning at 8. I have studied a lot and have been meeting with my tutor twice a week. I was confident at first that I could get an A but I really feel the enemy is wearing me down these last couple days before the test. I KNOW the enemy has NO power over me. I just really need your prayers. I need to be okay if God wants to put me in a different major.

My aunt needs prayer for strength and for God to provide for her practical needs asap. She has been abandoned by her husband who avoids paying child support, and she just had to have two surgeries within the past 30 days. She cannot work, and now she needs two more surgeries. She's in a lot of pain, and she's going to be evicted soon if she doesn't get some help. She has tried every community resource and nothing is working. She is not connected to a local church. She needs help and intense prayer. She has 3 boys.

Thanks for praying for my cousin, Anna, 24, who had surgery Monday afternoon. They removed 18 inches of her colon; but did not have to do a colostomy--which was their fear. She is recovering nicely, and the doctors have said she should be able to live a normal life. Praise God!

My cousin is only 8 years old. He'd been having some problems, so his parents took him to get checked out. The doctor's diagnosed him with H1N1. When little kids develop swine flu, it usually makes them more susceptible to other serious diseases; because he has the H1N1, he was also diagnosed and found to have type 1 Diabetes. This is going to be really hard for him and the whole family; because really, what little kid doesn't like to have sweets? Please keep my cousin in your prayers. He's going to really need them in the days to come.

A couple of weeks ago my sixteen year old nephew's best friend since kindergarten passed away. I do not know if she was saved, but it has only been about six weeks since he was saved. Right now he is mad at God for not helping him to save his friend. Please pray that my nephew will get the help he needs to overcome this very traumatic experience in his life.

Thank you

A few months ago I asked prayer for my 19 year old brother that was in jail, and since then he has been sentanced to 17 months in prison (starting the middle of September). Since being in prison, God has really been working on him and a few weeks ago I got a letter from him saying that "God saved me through Genesis 37 and the book of Matthew", and that he knows you can't get to Heaven by just believing that Jesus exists, but that you have to live for Him and by His Word, not yourself anymore... It sounds like I have a new brother in Christ! My newest prayer request is that he contunies to want to know more and live for the Lord, and that God keeps pulling him closer. There is a chance he may get out of prison in a few weeks, which is both a blessing and a source of fear for my family. Please pray that everyone involved will be ready and will be in tune to how the Lord wants us to strengthen him.

Thank you.

Please pray for a cousin of Sarah Mays and mine, Anna Combs, 24 years old, who was admitted to the hospital Friday night with a twisted colon, which is extremely rare for a person of this age. They untwisted the colon, but some of the the colon necrosed (died) and they almost lost her. She has a massive blockage, so the doctors are nervous about doing surgery with this, however, surgery is a must. She may lose her entire colon. She was transported to Christ Hospital in Cincinnati yesterday where there are experts in this field. Please pray for this entire family and that the best course of action will be chosen and acted upon. Anna is a believer. (I just found out they are doing surgery at this time... the doctors have said this is a life and death situation.) Thank you for praying.

A friend of mine was recently arrested for being a part of a plot to kill her mother. I just found out that the prosecutors are pushing for the death penalty. This is someone I was really close to, so I would very much appreciate all the prayers she could get! Pray that God will be with her and make His presence known to her. Pray for me, too, that God will give me peace and wisdom in this situation.

My friend Jenn has been battling Crohn's disease for the past five years. She has not had much luck with most conventional treatments, either due to allergic reactions or severe side effects, and her doctors don't know what else to try. The other day, however, Jenn was accepted to a clinical study that will try a new stem cell treatment for Crohn's. It will be a long process involving chemo and more hospital time, but she is super excited about the prospect of finally feeling better. Pray for success in the treatment, for the doctors and researchers involved, and strength for Jenn and her family when times get tough! Thanks everybody!
