Help for family

Please pray for my daughter, Aidann and me.   I'm going through a very difficult time in my marriage, and unfortunately, Aidann's family structure is at stake. I don't know what is to happen, all I know is that I have placed the outcome in the Lord's hands.  I don't know His will, but I must accept it.  Please pray that His will be done.
Thank you, Ana Merrel (Calvary school family)

Pray for outreach

A co-worker, Dennis, asked me to pray for him at the end of work today.  He recently lost his favorite aunt to cancer and has been struggling with depression.  Add to that he is 50, alone and and struggling with thoughts of self destructive.  I immediately prayed with him and let him know I would add him to our prayer list.
He was taken to church as a child and thinks he is a Christian, but does not practice it.  He says he is a good person and is spiritual, but  I am very concerned for his soul.  Also, pray for me for the wisdom and compassion to continue to reach out to him.
Fellow pilgrim with Christ,
Dave Schultz

God Works Miracles!


Good afternoon;
Received an email update through Barbara Goldhammer from Annie, whose sister is Bobbi Jo - here it is!

A huge thanks to all of you for your thoughts & prayers . After all the dr's said bobbi jo's chances of ever waking up was nearly impossible, this afternoon when they brought her body out of hypothermic state and rewarmed her completley  at 400pm they were trying to stimulate by doing pain points on her body and she responded in ways no one expected, she's following commands, slowly waking up. Every md and rn in this hospital has been by her room since in disbelief that she is awake after being down without a pulse for so long. I've been by her side, she recognized me and grabbed my hand. They have since extabated her ( took her off life support) and she is being supported by only a few liters of oxygen. She's going through boughts of nausea, really bad headaches and a few abnormal rhythms on her heart monitor so we are watching her closely to make sure her heart doesn't stop again. The dr's told me she had sudden cardiac death. Yesterday I thought I was going to have to plan her funeral and now things have suprisingly turned for the best. I can't even believe it. We told the staff here how tough bobbi jo is, never did I think she could overcome this. I compare my happiness to the same as when my son was born , except my sister has been brought back to life again. She's not out of the woods yet, but I wanted to thank you ALL for being here for me during this very hard time. So far she has really bad short term memory loss, which dr's say should get better in a couple days. They will be doing a ton of cardiac testing on her to see what happened. She is a miracle.  She's her fiesty normal self. So thank you for praying for her. She's got a little girl waiting for her to get back home. Please keep her in your thoughts and thank you all SO VERY MUCH. I'm so lucky to have you all and your support right now.

God is a miracle worker! Pastor

Prayer request

Thanks, Barbara Goldhammer

Please pray for my family as we adjust to having Tammy gone.  She left this morning for PA with my dad who was visiting for two weeks.  Very emotional morning for all of us as we said our good byes.  Pray for a safe flight and for Tammy to have an easy adjustment after all the newness and excitement wears off.  And please pray for us as we walk through the house seeing and smelling memories of Tammy everywhere, were like a bunch of babies right now, it's silly!  God bless you all and thank you for your prayers.
