She’s currently living with us and it can be challenging because of the stroke’s affects. Dad is in Alzheimer’s care and I’m struggling to understand God’s plan.

We are in FL and ran into a man that we saw frequently at Burger King last year. His son is severely challenged mentally and probably in his 40s. For instance, he can not really feed himself and does not walk well. His father is now caring for him alone, as his wife has passed away since we last saw them. In FL the son is on a waiting list for care aid. Currently his father (in his 70s) gets 10 hours a month of aid from Medicare. Please pray that this man and his son become known to people who can really be used by God to ease their burden. I don't know their names, but our Master does! Thanks!

I am posting this for our neighbor whose 3 yr old (I think that is her age) daughter was diagnosed with Leukemia in July. Although after just a few weeks of treatment her tests show 0.000% of cancer cells, she must continue with treatments for at least 2.5 years. It has been a trying month and they have a long road ahead of them. She\'s constantly asking for prayers for her daughter and family. With my neighbor\'s permission, I have copied and posted her latest request for more prayers. Thank you in advance fellow GCLC members.

Per Amy Nesbitt: \"I know I’ve been requesting a lot of prayers for Aila and hate to be annoying but please keep her in your prayers if you would..and our family... all weekend she was running high fevers and now her temps have actually dropped and have been running extremely low; she will also be having surgery to place her port as she has been doing Ivs and meds thru a picc line, since she stopped breathing on their first attempt to place a port a month ago. She will be also receiving chemo in her spine and will be starting another round of chemo (that are likely the cause of the high fevers) tomorrow morning. So please please pray hard for her I have so much anxiety as it brings me back to the first attempt and I guess I’m even more nervous since she will be going under heavy sedation

I ask all who can to pray for my girlfriend\'s sister, Moriah Pitcher. On Wednesday, August 15, an MRI scan revealed that she has a tumor in part of her brain. Moriah is scheduled to have the tumor removed on August 20. Her neurosurgeon believes the tumor is likely benign, but this cannot be determined for sure until the tumor is removed and pathology tests are performed. I ask that you pray for peace of mind for Moriah as the surgery date approaches, as well as for God to watch over her family and friends in this difficult time.
