Her thinking and behavior has been greatly altered. She was a great mom but has lost interest in her children. She has lost everyone and everything including career, self-esteem and confidence. She has attempted suicide. Laura is very beautiful, inside and out, but destroying herself.”

Pray for Priscilla

I spoke with Priscilla a few minutes ago.  He’s having some bleeding behind her eye and has been told that without surgery she could lose sight in that eye.  Pray for healing, peace, and wisdom for the choices that need to be made.

We love you, Priscilla.  As you have been a vision of God’s love to so many of us, we know He has vision for you.
