Praise and Prayer Requests As of March 16

Bartimaeus Baptist Temple Posted on March 16, 2026 by LarryMarch 16, 2026

Rejoice with us and pray with us.

There are some major prayer concerns right now, but it is always helpful to remember that life is still full of God’s good gifts. Though we were few, we were grateful to be back together in person yesterday. We’re thankful for a reduction in vagrancy issues and for cost savings we have been able to realize. Pris is thankful things are working out for her move.

Keep praying for Don. He was in surgery today to remove fluid from his chest cavity. We don’t have adequate information as of this writing to be able to report on the prognosis going forward, but we are trusting that our Lord will bring good from this. Pray for the whole family. BJ has also asked for prayer.

Prayer requests as of March 8

Bartimaeus Baptist Temple Posted on March 9, 2026 by LarryMarch 9, 2026

Shortly before we were due to have our online meeting yesterday, we learned that Don had gone into ICU and was receiving dialysis. I’m not sure what this means for him but Brenda just told me they said he does still have some kidney function. Please keep him in your prayers as well as Brenda and the rest of the family. Pris is fighting an infection on top of her other issues.

We opened the meeting but just for prayer. Leann hopes to be ready for her driving test at the end of the month and prays for safety on an upcoming camping trip. Cathy asks prayer for her friend Teresa who has had a couple of recent falls. Pray for each other and pray for our church as we look to the One who can calm these storms.

Praise and Prayer Requests as of February 1

Bartimaeus Baptist Temple Posted on February 1, 2026 by LarryFebruary 1, 2026

Rejoice with us and pray with us. We decided to cancel services for one more week due to the challenges some of us are facing. Pray for us as we press forward, expecting better days ahead.

We are all rejoicing that Don got his kidney transplant. His recovery will take some time, but is progressing as expected. Pris is feeling better and has been out and about some.

Keep Don and family in prayer as he heals. Debra asks prayer for her mom. She recently broke her toe and still faces other health issues. Debra is also concerned for her dog, who seems to be in severe distress and they may lose her. Barbara sent a message earlier today that she is “suffering a lot today.” Remember her in prayer for significant health problems. Pray for each other as we all face ongoing challenges that have not changed. Yet we place our trust in God, knowing that He will cause all of this to work for the good of those who love Him.

Praise and Prayer Requests for the week of January 4

Bartimaeus Baptist Temple Posted on January 5, 2026 by LarryJanuary 5, 2026

Rejoice with us and pray with us. We all enjoyed the worship at Pris’s home yesterday. Of course, we desire to grow and bring new people into God’s family, but one advantage of being small is that we can do things like that. The environment encourages less formality and more interaction, and Pris is always a gracious host. However, we didn’t mean to forego our time of praise and prayer requests. Knowing that there are particular concerns of the moment, I share them now so that we can be aware as we spend our individual time in prayer.

We met at Pris’s apartment in part to make things easier for her because she is having a lot of pain. Pray for her healing. Pray for Kenneth and his family as his father passed away. Pray for protection as he and Kimi travel. Don will have the minor surgery on Thursday to address the collapsing vein through which he receives dialysis. Pray for my second cousin Lucas as he fights infections in the midst of chemo treatments for lymphoma. He is twelve years old.

Please add anything I may have missed in the comments.

Larry
