Hello Everyone,
I know that some of you received an e-mail from Alisha and I wanted to give everyone an update.
A couple of years ago my sister was diagnosed with congestive heart failure. This is something that we were concerned about, however it is treatable with medicine. My sister and her husband are what I would call fanatics, and they had someone lay hands on my sister, she was feeling better so they decided that she had been healed and she quit taking her medicine in August. This past Christmas she was diagnosed with Pneumonia and in need of her gall bladder taken out. She went to a specialist on Tuesday who after looking at all of her test decided she never had pneumonia but instead it was her heart. Her heart is currently enlarged and functioning at 10%. Normally your heart functions at 60%. This was very alarming to us and one doctor told us that no one under a 7% makes it and that she needed to be put on the heart transplant list immediately.
However this is not the case. While my sister is very sick, she is not in such a dire place. Her cardioligist says that she responded well to the heart medication the first time and doesn't see why she won't respond the same way the second time. The cardiologist says people fall into 3 different cattegories. 1/3 come through fine, 1/3 stay the same and 1/3 get worse. She will be 40 next week and has a 14 year old at home. We will not know for several months if the medicine is working, so please keep her in your prayers while she is going through this.
Thanks everyone,
Becky

Repost Save the Date
Had a meeting this morning about an upcoming banquet....to raise monies for Rufus and Almarie Luttig in South Africa...asked the team to cover this in prayer and who better to pray than this prayer team .....nothing specific...God's got the outcome....and yet compelled to ask you all to pray for something to happen so big that nite that noone can take the credit.....that God would be shown as bigger than mine or anyone else's vision....may sound crazy but I am beginning to love the mystery of crazy prayers.....I love the idea of people praying for Him to be revealed, shown to people who may not yet have realized that God's got our checkbooks....our time.....our resources and gifts whatever they may be....I know I have to pray this all the time...THANKS and praying with you.

Hello! Becky McCabe has asked me to send you all an email to request prayer for her and Julie Picraux's sister, Karla. She is currently in the hospital, she had previously been diagnosed with congestive heart failure. She had gone in to have her heart checked because she needs gallbladder surgery and today they found out her heart is only pumping at 10% which is at transplant level. I'm not sure what the plan of action is at this point I just know prayer is definitely needed. Hopefully we will know more soon!
Thank you!!

New Prayer Request
New prayer request from :
My husband lost his job in May, and luckily unemployment payments saved us from financial ruin. The company is now appealing the unemployment, trying to make us pay back the money we received. I pray that the decision that was already made is not overturned; and we will not have to pay the money back. Because even though he's working again; I don't know where we would find the money to pay back from 6 months worth of unemployment - that was probably the only thing that kept us in our home. Thank you.
