Please for my husband and I, we are just not on the same page these days. We have been married a long time and we both love each other but I think we just forgot how to talk to each other. Please give us the right words to communicate with each other and remember that we are in this live together. My husband believes in God but doesn't attend church often, please soften his heart and accept our God as his Lord and Savior. Thank you for your prayers!

My manager's wife (Kim) who is 50 years old and healthy went in for a routine colonoscopy a few weeks ago and found out she has stage 4 cancer with a tumor the size of an orange. Upon further scans, it originated in the colon but has spread to other lymph nodes and potentially other areas.

She goes in for surgery on Friday at 6am EST and have the surgery mapped out.

Please pray for God to guide the surgeons hands and get the majority of the cancer. Then, I ask for prayer for full healing.

Also pray for their family's stress through this challenging time as she does a lot around the house as a stay at home mom.

They are believers, but it is all in God's hands now.

Thank you.
