Ok, so I took the month off because it has been crazy busy! Easter was such a blessing and (even though I was running around doing tons of things at the same time) I thought it was great fun! Hope you had a great one too! Did the Easter Bunny bring you anything? :-)
But, the prayer requests don't stop just because we do!
Without further ado (what's that mean anyway).....
Lord God, we pray that Your will would be done, even in our prayers. Let us even pray for the things you want us to pray for. We pray Father that your hand would be on all of these requests, and the many, many we do not know anything about. We want to praise You for Easter. For the time when You have told us the story of Your Son Jesus. Of His death and resurrection. You could easily have achieved our Salvation without us ever knowing it, but You did not. You allow us to know the amazing story and be saved through it. You give us the opportunity to know You better. Keep us safe Lord, and I pray you would bless everyone who reads this, everyone who takes 5 minutes to say a prayer for these people. Hear us Lord, as You always do. In Jesus Name, Amen.
Request #1: Please pray for Janie's father, Jim, who has had a heart attack. She is at the VA Hospital with him now.
Request #2: Focus on the Family: (April 12) Frank Schwendeman, who had a remarkable (miraculous) recovery from serious lung cancer last summer when we all prayed is now in critical condition in a South Carolina hospital because of unexpected side-effects of the radiation treatments he received then. He is in the ICU of a local hospital there and his progress has been very slow since he was admitted last Thursday. His life too hangs in the balance. Frank has been a tireless pro-life worker in Central Kentucky for decades and is significantly responsible for the large number of pro-life legislators from that area.
Request #3: Focus on the Family: (April 12) This morning, Rep. Dewayne Bunch (R-Dist. 82), a Kentucky State Representative who serves Whitley County and parts of Laurel County, was critically injured attempting to break up a fight between two male students at Whitley County High School, where he works as a teacher. Reports indicate that he sustained a serious head injury.
Also See Update Below.According to news reports, "Bunch was transported to Baptist Regional Medical Center for treatment. According to Whitley County Schools Superintendent Scott Paul, Bunch was going to be moved to a hospital in Lexington." Ryan Alessi of CN|2 is reporting that Rep. Bunch has since been airlifted to The University of Kentucky Medical Center.
Request #4: We need to pray for Barbara to have healing please.
History: Barbara- She had to have her gall bladder removed (luckily, they were able to do it Laparoscopically) on Monday night.They have kept her in the hospital since then, and said she may have a minor infection, they are doing tests to find out. There is also a concern that she may be having a liver problem, and they have done a biopsy to find out, but do not have results back yet. Please keep her in your prayers. She was sick off and on throughout the holidays as well.
Request #5: From Barbara: Karen is a friend of a family member,She is very ill with cancer, She is asking if you would send her a birthday card as soon as you can.The family needs prayers and LOVE no matter who it may come from. Karen Wehunt 13810 Megan Dr. Justin Texas 76247. Thank You and God Bless You. Love To All Barbara
Request #6: Laura: Oh nooooooooo....woke up this morning with true laryngitis.....a fate worse than death for someone like me. I CAN'T TALK!!!
Request #7: Beth: Frank & the team in Honduras say thanks for the prayers.
Feel free to send me more as you hear them or think of them! I will create another list in the next few days to catch us up again!
Update: (April 14) A Kentucky lawmaker remains in critical condition on April 14, two days after he was injured trying to break up a fight between two high school students. A statement from Representative Dewayne Bunch's family indicated his condition had not changed at the University of Kentucky Hospital. The statement also thanked the community for support and prayers. Whitley County sheriff Colan Harrell said Bunch, a teacher at Whitley County High School, was punched in the head and fell on April 12. His head hit the tile floor.
Thanks so much for all your time!
