PRAYER REQUEST – STEVE HARDEN:
Mr. Steve Harden, a member in the Springfield, Illinois congregation, just learned he has pancreatic cancer. He would appreciate prayers for his healing, as well as for the circumstances he has been going through.
PRAYER REQUEST – ANNIE WILSON:
This from Annie Wilson: I am asking for prayers because of the excruciating pain I’ve been having for 3 to 4 weeks with my health issues, including nerve damage, rheumatoid arthritis, muscle spasm, leg swelling, and not being able to do much, nor to sleep deeply or walk without pain. l also had two teeth pulled last Tuesday, both difficult to extract, and painful. It’s been horrible the last 4 weeks, even when my husband and son hug me, bringing tears to my eyes. Sometimes I have to sit down to cook them something light to eat. Your prayers are truly needed!
