Praise and Prayer Requests from Sunday Service of January 23 – What I can remember

Bartimaeus Baptist Temple Posted on by

I was counting on Zoom to record our meeting yesterday, thinking I had set it up to do that by default.  When that changed I don’t know, but the result is that I have nothing to review and nothing to post.  So I am going to share what I can remember and trust that others will fill in anything they want to keep on our minds.

Pris and Kimi are getting better.  I think Cathy said she had a good week.  We made good progress getting the security system installed at the church.  Several of us were just glad to be able to meet in some way despite the challenges brought on by covid and fears thereof.  Bobbi said her health is improving.  Leann got health insurance.

Keep praying for Priscilla’s sister Jo.  Kimi still faces many health challenges and will be seeing a series of specialists.  Pray for my family.  Cindy and Deedee have unspoken requests.  Pray for Debra’s brother to recover from covid and be able to return to work.  Keep Don in prayer as he continues testing necessary to receive a kidney.

Keep lighting the way!
