  Prayer Requests & Updates
Issue #3
 
 
When we  put prayer requests in this newsletter, we won't publish  the persons address for privacy  reasons  (unless they want us to), however we really think your cards and letters and E-mails are important for the sick and hurting, so send them to us and we will forward them to the sick or hurting person. Just write that persons name on the envelope some place, so we don't open it. We really feel that the Church of God has been lacking in this area of sending cards and letters to comfort the sick and hurting in recent years. You don't even have to buy a card, make it on your computer, or just send a short little note. Something which will help these hurting people to know that you really care and want to comfort them in their time of need. We Thank You Very Much for your concern in this area.
 
Anonymous Person
Darwin and I request your prayers for a person within the Church of God who needs emotional healing and family healing--God knows who this person is, so we request your prayers anonymously. Thank You.
 
Jean Prestbroten
We are requesting prayers for Jean Prestbroten. She has a very serious eye condition. She has had 4 retina tears (3 on the left eye, 1 on the right eye). Because there is bleeding in the vitreous of the eye when this happens, blood droplets form "blobs" in the vision. When they dissolve in the fluid of the eye, it turns to "dirty water". Her vision is as if looking through a dirty fish tank. Surgery is not recommended at this time--too risky. Please pray for physical healing of her eye condition. Jean is also very down (depressed) and needs emotional strength as well to continue on. We also request prayers for Jean's emotional healing in regard to this serious depression she has due to her eye problems. Please pray also for her husband and family who have requested prayers on her behalf.
 
Chris & Deborah Higginbotham
Brian Higginbotham, age 22, died before 6:00AM on Thursday March 8, 2001, of an unknown illness. Brian's brother Chris also displays some of the symptoms of this unknown illness, so please continue to pray for Chris and his mother Deborah. You may send cards and letters to Deborah's sister at the following address: Belinda Reno, 502 McFaddin Avenue, Sumter, South Carolina 29150-3722, USA
 
Margaret Metz
Samuel Metz, is requesting prayers for his wife Margaret, who is suffering from Bronchitis, fluid buildup and some other nasty symptoms. Please pray for her physical healing.
 
March 13, 2001--Margaret Metz
Samuel Metz asks for continued prayer for his wife’s physical healing. Margaret Metz was admitted to the hospital on 3-13-2001.
 
Sabbath Group in Minnesota
We have a group of people who meet on the Sabbath, near the Minnesota state line. Loved ones are becoming alarmed as they seem to be getting fed spiritually by only one man, and they are looking to this man as if he were God himself. Some members see the problem and try to introduce other spiritual material, and are rejected. At least one member seems to be getting physically ill, when loved ones try to get this person out of this group. We need fervent prayer on this one, that these people will see the problem, and stop. Special prayers for those who become ill when trying to break from this group.
 
March 22, 2001--Robert Laurita
Rick & Eileen Beltz (rbeltz@mindspring.com) have requested prayers for Robert Laurita, who has been suffering with stomach cancer since late 1999. Update as of 3/22/2001. He had a bypass operation on his stomach on 2/2/2001. The doctors said that the cancer has spread to some of the other organs. Bob is still very sick and weak, and confined to his apartment. He receives little energy from food. He has asked the brethren to pray for an increase in energy and for his complete recovery, as his life is now totally in God's hands. We're sure he would appreciate any cards or letters of encouragement from his fellow brethren. Please send to him at: Robert Laurita, 105-00 Shore Front Parkway, Rockaway Beach, NY 11694
 
Peggy Tolbert’s Cousin
Peggy Tolbert is requesting prayers for her 75 year old cousin who is on her death bed in South Carolina. Prayers of healing are requested for both Peggy's cousin and the other family members.
 
March 27, 2001--Margaret Metz
Margaret Metz got out of the hospital on 3-27-2001, after being in there for 2 weeks, however she does need continued prayers, because her kidneys stopped functioning and she now needs to go for dialysis 3 times a week. Margaret is also very tired all the time. So please pray for her full recovery.
 
Wanda Croyle’s Family
Wanda Croyle has asked for prayers, for family healing, and for financial problems.
