Insert your prayer here Please pray for a situation with my 93-year-old grandfather. He has been able to live at home with my grandmother because my mother has been taking care of them full time. For a while now it has been overwhelming and unmanageable for my mom. He has been falling last week and is in the hospital currently. He needs to be relocated permanently to an assisted living home for care and physical rehab, but there are major issues with that right now because of COVID. It's making things even more complex and stressful for my mom and everyone involved. Please pray a good path forward would present itself for them.
*UPDATE:
Thank you for the prayer. There was good movement on some things to get him into a facility for 24/7 care and taking the physical strain off of my mom. Most importantly, even though it's emotionally challenging for everyone, it felt that God was/is helping and involved. Please pray for my brother, Nate. He's been battling drug addiction for all of his adult life (20+ years). He continues to try to get clean but the addiction has such a strong grip on his mind, body and soul. I feel only God can help him at this point. This has been a very long and on-going prayer request in my family's life and I wanted to petition additional help from you all. Please help me pray for Nate to beat his addition and to turn his life around. He knows the Lord but from my perspective, he has a weak grip on that relationship. Thanks all!
*UPDATE:
Huge answer to prayer today! Nate checked himself into the Hope Christian Center (hopecenterny.org) up in the Bronx for a 5-9 month rehabilitation program. He came up from PA and stayed with me for the past 2 weeks, where I was able to focus my time and energy into encouraging him to go to this program. With the ultimate help from God and Nate’s heart for change, he accepted and committed to going. This is only the beginning of change but it’s a huge step when someone with an addiction, chooses to go to rehab by their own will.
If I can ask for continued prayer as this phase of recovery is crucial in making a lasting change. It’s easy for him to get bored and sidetracked but with the help of prayer and God’s grace, Nate has a fighting chance. I won’t be able to meet with him for the next 15-30 days but I’ll keep this post updated. I can’t thank you all enough for the prayers! Can you pray for my sister’s friend’s son? He had a terrible fall last week and was sent home today from the hospital but had to be rushed back. He fell off a roof onto concrete head first. He is only 30 with 2 little kids and a 3rd on the way. His name is Greg and his wife's name is Jallisa. He is in the hospital now having another CT scan. Thanks!
*UPDATE:
I spoke with my sister and she said Greg has mostly recovered from his fall. Thanks for your prayers, he and his family are very grateful! I need a place to live Sept. 1st!
*UPDATE:
Huge answer to prayer! I’ll be able to move into the rent lottery apt. I applied for Nov. 1st. Pls pray for Julio, a young man w/ a rare cancer from FL who attends our congregation - he is in substantial pain.
Prayer also for his mother, Yvonne, who is caring for him here in NYC. Such beautifully sweet people, may God have amazing mercy on them.
*UPDATE:
Our brother Julio's battle with cancer ended October 18th, when he joined the Lord in heaven. Thru the fall, he lost more & more strength, and in the end, his mother Ivonne decided against moving him into the ICU so that he wouldn't have to endure more pain. Julio was in his fourth year battling the disease - what an amazingly strong brother.
Please continue to pray for Ivonne, who will be staying on in NYC, as she grieves the loss of her beautiful son. Like Julio, she exudes steadfast faith in Jesus and is sweetly kind. Julio was her last of kin. Please pray that God would comfort her and that the church would come around her. Please reach out to Dave Lee, if you'd like to support her in any material way. Pray for the family of Anne Kittrell. Anne passed away suddenly this past week. She had a blood clot after a routine knee surgery. She has three kids all high school/college age: Sam, Ben, and Emma.
What makes this even more tragic is that these kids lost their father, Kevin Kittrell to cancer a few years ago. Anne had just remarried a man named Chad over the holidays.
Anne was my mentor, my mother figure, my editor, and my moral compass. We had just texted a few days ago. I'm heartbroken.
*UPDATE:
Anne's funeral has come and gone. I personally am healing from the loss. Her kids appear to be doing well. Thanks for your prayers. Prayer for a co-worker going through a painful separation from her husband. Prayer specifically for her continued ability to care well for her children, and for a sense of love & comfort & hope from the Lord.
*UPDATE:
I believe my co-worker is in the process of a divorce with her husband (or will soon be), who was unfaithful and verbally & emotionally abusive. He also did not near-equally share child-rearing responsibilities.
Despite the pain of this process and her current separation, my co-worker remains strong in mind and body and spirit, and hopefully the worst is behind her. Please pray that she would continue to develop her relationship with Jesus and his church, and that the Lord would comfort her with love and sustenance. Please also pray for her two daughters, who are 9 & 12 - that they would not be scarred by their parents' divorce. I have a 4th interview early next week with a recruiting firm named GQR. This will be a strategy session and I’m working on the presentation now, prayers for wisdom and favor would be appreciated and that this goes smoothly. Thank you.
*UPDATE:
Firm declined to employ, reason cited: they are remote until April 21 and will not onboard remote hires prior. Thank you for praying, God will open another.This prayer has been answered!
