Heavenly Father I come before your Heavenly Throne  on behalf of our nation and I lift it up to you in prayer.  Evil has come upon our nation that has caused much  grief in our hearts. As I watched this tragedy unfold my  heart was filled with sadness and unbelief that this was happening.  This is the work of madmen so filled with evil  and hate that they have no respect for life.  Lord I ask that you wrap the loved ones of the victims  in your arms of love. I ask that you give comfort to them  and draw each one close to you. I ask that you cover  those who have been injured with your healing power  from above. I ask that you bring them through completely  healed. I ask that people be found alive today as they  search through the rubble. I ask that you give wisdom  and guidance to our President and leaders as they seek  to find those responsible for this tragedy. I ask that  this evil aggressor and his accomplices be found and  brought in to receive their just punishment. I ask that you  touch the hearts of each and every American in this nation,  I ask that you touch the hearts of each and every country  and draw them close to you. I ask that an outpouring of the  Holy Spirit fill this world and that many will come to you  Lord. I pray that we as a people stand united together  in prayer for this nation and for the people who have  lost their loved ones. I prayer that from this tragedy  we come together as a nation with love and kindness  toward our fellow Americans. I pray that from this  tragedy many will come to know Jesus as their Lord  and Savior. Lord I ask that you place your mighty hand  of healing upon this nation. I ask that you place a  hedge of protection around us and protect us from evil.  I ask in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Hi, here's the info concerning Tanner Diagnosis:  Viral Encephalitis In Intensive Care Unit Inflammation of the brain Not in a coma, but unconscious - can hear those around him Medications:  Steroids for the inflammation, anti-conversant to keep seizures from occurring, also medicine to reduce fever. Jackie looked up Viral Encephalitis in her text books...it said you can get this from a mosquito bite, typically affects the very young or elderly. Takes 5-15 days for symptoms to show. That's all I know so far. I'll let you know if we find out anything else. Thanks again!!!!

I just heard from my son in law about his cousin's baby boy Tanner (8 months old) He is the one I asked prayer for that had the high fever and started having seizures. They still have him on the ventilator and they did an MRI on him. They seem to think he has a "spot" in 2 places. One is his short memory spot and one in his motor skills. I am praying they are just bruising from the seizures. I wanted to update you on this. PLEASE keep this baby in your prayers Barb
Update 10/20/01
I just got word from Tanner's uncle. They feel the spots on his brain MIGHT be due to the seizures. They still have to run more tests. Also he had a stroke the other day. Not sure why. He opened his eyes for the first time and reached out his hand and seems to responding to voices. The think now it might be a genetic (?) thing. Please continue lifting Tanner up to the Lord in prayer. Love, Barb
Update 2/24/02
I just heard from my son- in -law John about his cousin's baby (Tanner). They told him only that he is being fed through a tube in his stomach and he has 75% brain damage.

Thanks so much!

Update 2/13/03
Tanner has had a lot of health problems since he was born two years ago the beginning of this month. This morning his Mom went to change him and he gave her a beautiful smile. She noticed his feet were blue and in moments he was blue and quit breathing. She gave him CPR and got him to the hospital. They told the family that he could be on life support breathing forever but there was no brain function. Tanner is in the arms of our Savior ....whole and happy.

Heavenly Father lift up Nikki's cousin Timmy to you in prayer. He was at the World Trade Center when it collapsed yesterday. He works for the NYPD and was at City Hall on duty when he heard the explosions and ran down to help. When he arrived there he ran inside to help some victims and that's when the building collapsed. The NYPD has informed his wife that they know Timmy is buried underneath all of the rubble, in fact they have an idea of where he is but the problem is they can't get to him.  Lord I ask that you wrap Timmy in your arms of love. I ask that he be found safe and alive. I ask that you place a hedge of protection around all of the rescue workers and fireman who are reaching out to help find people among all of the rubble. I pray Lord that Timmy and many more will be found alive. I ask that you give comfort to each family that has a missing loved one. I ask that you wrap them in your precious arms of love. Lord you are our comfort and our strength in time of trouble and right now Lord strength is needed to keep our fellow Americans going. I ask that you place a hedge of protection around the workers and keep them safe from harm. I ask that you give them strength to endue whatever situation comes upon them. I ask in the name of Jesus. Amen. One of Nikki's favorites Psalm 27 "The Lord is my light and my salvation-whom shall I fear? The Lord is the Stronghold of my life-of whom shall I be afraid?  When evil men advance against me to devour my flesh, when my enemies and my foes attack me, they will stumble and fall.  Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me even then will I be confident.  One thing I ask of the Lord, this is what I seek; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple.  For in the day of trouble, he will keep me safe in his dwelling;  he will hide me in the shelter of his tabernacle and set me high upon a rock.  Then my head will be exalted above the enemies who surround me; at his tabernacle will I sacrifice with shouts of joy; I will sing and make music to the Lord.  Hear my voice when I call, O Lord; be merciful to me and answer me.  My heart says of you "Seek his face!"  Your face, Lord, I will seek.  Do not hide your face from me, do not turn your servant away in anger; you have been my helper.  Do not reject me or forsake me, O God my Savior. Though my father and mother forsake me, the Lord will receive me.  Teach me your way, O Lord; lead me in a straight path because of my oppressors.  Do not turn me over to the desire of my foes, for false witnesses rise up against me, breathing out violence.  I am still confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.  Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord." Thank you everyone...My prayers go out to all of those working hard out there, all of the family's and all of those who are injured and who are still missing beneath all of the rubble and debris. Nikki

Hi everyone,  Just wanted to give you an update on my Mom, Holly Cole. Last night was kind of a rough one for her, she had a terrible headache and her blood pressure rose to 197/120. They were able to give her something for the pain, but her headache didn't go away and her blood pressure didn't go down until this afternoon. I actually got to speak with her this evening. She sounded good. She is staying at the hospital for the night while the doctor's wait for some test results to come back...her blood pressure is still high, about 169/95, so they want to keep her in to monitor that. She had an MRI done today, if the results come back negative, her doctor can only assume that all of this is due to a medication interaction. Please be praying that her MRI comes back normal or negative! She sounds in good spirits and was laughing with me on the phone! Thanks everyone for your continued prayers. I'll be sure to keep you all updated. I told her that I'd written all of you and read to her all of your responses. She was happy to hear from you all!  Thanks so much! Dawn

I'll be sure to let you know if anything changes. Thanks, Dawn

Heavenly Father I lift up John to you in prayer. Three years ago he was diagnosed with Polyneuropathy, which destroys the discs in the spine and also destroys the muscles in the body. He is in constant pain. He has applied for assistance many times with many appeals and gets nowhere.  About a year ago he found a doctor that said Prozac would help but not cure his problem, the doctor was giving him samples as his finances would not cover a prescription. The doctor moved away about six months ago and so did his access to Prozac.  July 4th, he felt he was at the end of his endurance and wanted to die, his parents got him help and  they are working with many people of influence to get him more help, including the maker of Prozac, Eli Lily. He is scheduled to see Eli on Friday to see if he can help him in any way. Lord I ask that you wrap John in your arms of love. I ask that you cover him with your healing power from above. I ask that you draw him close to you. I ask that you remove any pain and discomfort that he may be having. All that can be done for John medically has been done as there is no cure for this disease, therefore I come before your Heavenly Throne on John's behalf believing that through you all things are possible and I ask for miraculous healing. I ask that John be a testimony to the doctors, family, friends and strangers of your healing power and of the power of prayer. I ask that you provide for his financial needs and that the assistance he has been applying for will go through. If it is not your will to heal him, then I ask that you place him in the care of someone who can help to relieve his pain through the use of medications. I ask that you place a hedge of protection around him and keep him safe from harming himself. I ask that you give comfort and strength to his parents and draw each one close to you. I ask for complete healing. I ask in the name of Jesus.

Hi, I was just going to write you. Joey suddenly got a deep impression that going into surgery the next morning would not be good.  He had had oral surgery a few days before that and the dentist said it would be OK, but the pain and some infection in the teeth roots was still present.  Joey was afraid the anesthesia may cause him some problems, he was not comfortable thinking he would be in worse pain. He drove to the Dr's office and postponed the surgery. God definitely took over. He will have the surgery in two weeks.  He is still very nervous.  There is much pain.  The problems also are contributed by the fact that the radiation burned his throat so badly, the skin never healed. He has two openings ... one for the trachea and the other is a hole about a half inch above the trachea, that will not heal. The skin is burned out and too thin, he must hold both openings just to help talk.  He sounds horrible. Many of us cannot understand him at all.  He is so disillusioned by now, hanging on by a thread.  Yet he keeps working. I do believe God gave us more time, and Himself more time to work with Joey, through this delay!! Thank you and please continue in prayer for Joey. Jerrilynn
Update 9/22/01
Hi Darling Charlotte: Joey is in Ohio with his mother. He is ill.  They found an abscess in his stomach, which is a hard lump.  He has a food tube in that same area, for liquids. He is to go to NYC to speak with a surgeon concerning the holes in his throat and for the greatest hope, a way to have a throat transplant to remove all the built up scar tissue, which closes his throat. The plastic surgery will close one damaged area where the radiation from years back, caused one of the holes. He is very depressed.  There seems to be no way doctors can help him.  He wants to be well.  He wants to eat normally and talk normally.  With no trachea tube, no feeding tube, no fevers, no abscesses, no infections, and no pain. When he comes home, he will have to return to work to help pay for this trip.  May God please be merciful to Joey and cause a healing to take place, if even little by little. Bless you Charlotte for your goodness and compassion to those in need of prayer. Thank you dear friend... jerrilynn

Update12/4/01
Charlotte: Joey is not doing well.  He now has pneumonia again.  He gets it every few months.  He is filled with many pain pills and it has caused him to become dependent upon them.  Yet, he talks about God with great favor. He wants life to change for him.  He wants to eat by mouth and swallow.  He wants to smell food and fragrances. He cannot do this. For now, while he must be fed thru the stomach, this is the best, because it helps him overcome the craving for food, when he cannot smell, as long as  he breathes thru the trachea tube in his throat. No one really knows what happens to a person in this condition. One day, in the parking lot at work, his food tube came out and all the fluid in his stomach came out all over his suit and pants.  He was so embarrassed.  He had to turn around, go past all the others coming in, and rush to his car.  He had to go home and back to the dr. to reinsert the tube. Please continue to send prayer requests for him. He has come a long way, now praying to God almost every day.  He wants to go home for Christmas and I pray he will be well enough to do that. Thank you my darling friend, for caring and asking about him.  He is getting so depressed. God bless you, Charlotte, and have a great holiday. jerrilynn
Update 2/19/02
Hi Charlotte:
Joey made an appt to speak with a pastor (first time) since being a kid.  He is better physically, no more lung congestion.  But still on lots of pain pills. The biggest miracle is that this entire long incident over the Christmas holidays, has been used by God to bring him to God. Joey wants to quit work. He asks, "Why is it that when I do more praying than I ever have, and turn my heart to God, more things go wrong than before?"  His health, his supervisor/friend was transferred and now Joey has a "new Pharoah" over him, who couldn't care less about Joey's health. Then a charge out of the blue came from a creepy girl accusing him of harassment and the board of review would not even listen to the circumstances. They just wrote him up without letting him protest. Here, I think, is the beginning of satan's war on a new believer.  We hate to mention it to those coming to God, for fear they will faint under the news.  But it came real fast in Joey's life. He is still hoping for a throat transplant this year in NY.  He wants me to come with him.  But he knows this will be a hit or miss situation.  And he might not have the ability to recuperate after the operation.  He just wants to eat like normal people do, and taste food again. He wants to quit work now and go on soc. sec. disability, but knows he might just get depressed even more without anything to do.  So he plugs along, no matter how ill he feels. He gets no sleep. Went five days without it. Joey has to get off the pain pills.  He is on those that 60 Min. talked about, (or 20/20)... the Oxycontin.  They were never marketed as being addictive.  Joey needs prayers still.  He has a big chapter to face in his life yet. God bless you Charlotte. Jerrilynn.

Heavenly Father I lift up Gilbert and Cynette to you in prayer. They are brother and sister and the choices they are making in their lives at this time are not good ones. Gilbert is dating a Witch, he was attending Church and was a Youth Leader in the Church and that has came to a halt. Cynette may have returned to her old life style of drinking and drugs. She will not talk to her mother Carol on the phone or visit with her, this leaves Carol to believe that all of the signs are there.  Lord I ask that you wrap Gilbert in your arms of love. I ask that you draw him close to you.  I ask that you place a hedge of protection around him and free them from the schemes of the evil one. It seems that Satan is prowling around in full force as he has pulled Gilbert away from the Church and placed him with a witch. I ask that you remove Gilbert from the presence of this woman and I ask that you place the scripture in his mind that he is to be equally yoked and point out to him that he is of light and she of darkness.

I ask that you draw her close to you. I ask that you remove the desires for drugs and alcohol from her and replace desire with will power to turn away from them. I ask that you open her eyes to see the harm that comes from the use of drugs and alcohol. I ask that you place a desire in her heart to seek comfort and strength from you. I ask that you give her the strength to overcome. I ask that you give comfort to Carol during this difficult time in her live. I ask in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Update 9/22/01
Thank you for asking about Joe. He is doing better each day it seems. We found a doctor (after going through nine!) that we feel is really helping him. He feels like his cancer is really Crohn's disease. Crohn's disease is a kind of carcinoma, but it can be treated with diet and whole food nutrients (which can only be prescribed by drs). It has been amazing to watch Joe's life come back into him. We still need much prayer though. I especially do too as I just left my life for about 2 months and you can imagine the bills, etc. God knows and is providing though. Mainly we are just praising God every day for Joe's increased health. Thank you, Lynn

Update 7/23/01
I want to thank all of you for your prayers the operation was a big success, I came home Sunday and I am doing fine. I had three blocked arteries, one was blocked 99% and the other two were blocked 95%. They were very concerned about them being blocked that much of a percentage, but I knew the Lord was with me in that operating room. When the doctor had finished and every thing went well, it was like someone had won the lottery. Even the doctor was tickled as much as me, when he showed me the difference in the pictures he got of my heart before they took me to my room.  Laying there knowing I couldn't moved and had to lay flat for 8 hours. I took his hands and kissed them because I knew Jesus was in the operating room and working through him to fix me to use me in his ministry in some way more than I'm doing now.  I'm sending you a poem and a devotion for kindness and for your prayers, God's Blessings To You all Amen.
So there is Victory in Jesus
Always There

Hello God, I called tonight
To talk a little while.
I need a friend who'll listen
To my anxiety and trial...

You see, I can't quite make it
Through a day just on my own...
I need your love to guide me,
So I'll never feel alone.

I want to ask you please to keep,
My family safe and sound.
Come and fill their lives with confidence
For whatever fate they're bound.

Give me faith, dear God, to face
Each hour throughout the day,
And not to worry over things
I can't change in any way.

I thank you God, for being home
And listening to my call,
For giving me such good advice
When I stumble and fall.

Your number, God, is the only one
That answers every time.
I never get a busy signal,
Never had to pay a dime.

So thank you, God, for listening
To my troubles and my sorrow.
Good night, God, I love You, too,
And I'll call again tomorrow!

Heavenly Father I lift up Deborah to you in prayer. She suffers from depression and has been going for Christian counseling. The counselor informed her last night that he is going to start charging her if she calls him for anything that is over ten minutes. He also doesn't want to talk with her other than in session, not even to say hello.  She is feeling very unloved and she is contemplating suicide. Lord I ask that you wrap Deborah in your arms of love. I ask that you draw her close to you. I ask that you place a desire in her heart to want life and to live life to it's fullest. I ask that you remove all thoughts of suicide from her mind. I ask that you give comfort to her and fill her with your joy.

Love is not charging someone money to help them, love is being there for a person no matter what the hour or time of day. I ask that you show Deborah that no matter what the situation is in her life, suicide is not the answer and that it is wrong in your eyes. Show her that no one has a right to take life other than you, the giver of life. I ask that you let her feel your comforting presence around her. I ask that you place a hedge of protection around her and keep her safe from harm. I ask in the name of Jesus. Amen.

We really do appreciate all of the prayers that you have brought to us and her. Also, I have a couple of requests for myself.

GOD knows that all three will aid in getting his work accomplished. Please pray for these to come to pass and for me to be patient. Also, please pray for a reconciliation and peace with a friend who is angry with me and another involved who is agnostic. If the LORD wishes for us to part company, then that will happen.

There are times when she is in severe pain and breathing is very difficult. Lord I ask that you wrap Ida in your arms of love. I ask that you draw her close to you. I ask that you remove any pain and discomfort that she may be having. I ask that you cover her with your healing power from above.  I ask that you provide a way for her to continue with the treatments that she has been having after her insurance is terminated. All that can be done for Ida medically has been done, therefore I come before your Heavenly Throne on her behalf and I ask for miraculous healing. I ask that her lungs be restored to function normally free from all cancer. I ask that she be a testimony to her doctor, family, friends and strangers of your healing power and of the power of prayer. If it is not your will to heal her then I ask for mercy. I ask that you give comfort to her husband Butch and their children and draw each one close to you. If this family has not accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior I ask that you place Christians in their paths to share the Good News of Christ. I ask that you open their hearts to feel, open their eyes to see and open their ears to hear of the wonderful love of Christ. I pray for salvation. I ask in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Hi! This is Jackie, the person who originally requested the healing for Ida, who is my cousin in Florida. I live in California and financial and family circumstances of my own do not permit me to travel to her side to give her aid. All I can do is give her moral support over the Internet, send letters and small gifts by mail, and occasionally talk to her long distance by phone. Of course, I also try to help her by praying for her. I have also contacted many healing ministries and prayer circles over the Internet to ask that others join me in prayer for Ida and her family. You were one of the sites I contacted for help. Thank you so much for being so caring and helpful. Ida is entering the third and final stage of cancer. Her insurance is also expiring soon (January is the last month). I know God will help her and that he loves her very much, just as I do. Thank you for being so sweet and asking about her. Sick people need extra encouragement, love and prayers. I know that was what you were trying to do when you sent the e-mail to me by mistake. I can tell that you are a kind and loving person. I sense, from reading between the lines on my communications with her, that Ida's health has been declining even more lately. She tries so hard not to dwell on her illness or complain, but I have tried to encourage her to let me be the one she can tell anything to, good or bad, so that I can try to help and understand and at least offer her a little comfort from a distance. Her own immediate family is having trouble coping with her impending death, and she does not want to add to their pain and suffering by letting them know she hurts or that she is frightened. Lately she has admitted that she has terrible pain that wakes her from her sleep, and she becomes very frightened because she can't breathe. To make matters worse, she is constantly worried because she has so many family problems. I know the stress is probably causing her pain to intensify. She is needed by so many people around her, and she fights the cancer every day so she can remain with her family. She's a wonderful person, a regular "earth angel," who cares so much about others that she puts their well being above her own. Please keep praying for her as I am doing. I know that God is the only one who can truly help her. God bless you. Take care, dear person. Love, Jackie
Update 9/23/01
Hello,  Ida has been having trouble with the regulation of her pain medication by her hospice doctor. She had been vomiting a lot in reaction to her stronger pain medications. The doctor recently changed the combination and dosage of drugs he has been giving her and we are hopeful that this may help Ida to feel better. She is still in pain and the doctor has informed Ida's husband that Ida has only two to three months to live. Ida is also fighting depression and the doctor has begun to give her medication to help her with this. The situation with Ida's family problems seems to be getting better. The family no longer seems in such denial of her condition. They appear to be treating Ida with more consideration and caring than they have done in the past. Ida has also been lucky enough to receive the help of a neighboring Christian church whose members have decided to come in and check on Ida and help her with simple household chores. Thank you so much for your kindness and concern for Ida. I am sorry I have not kept you updated, but I have written to so many different sources asking for prayers that I have lost contact with some of them. I have also been going through a very stressful period with my own family.  I would appreciate it if you would continue to remember Ida in your prayers. God bless you. Sincerely, Jackie Rogers

Dear Charlotte,  Ida is still very ill. In August Ida's doctor told her husband that she probably wouldn't make it longer than three more months. However, Ida is still with us and is fighting for life every day. Lately she has been having heart problems too. Her heart rate is very high and her blood pressure very low. She is now on medication for these factors along with pain medication. Ida also has developed a stubborn fever that lingers on and is on antibiotics to try to control it. Ida's breathing has also grown more labored and she has been put on a nebulizer machine with albuterol in it to help with the wheezing. She also takes oxygen. One good thing is that her vomiting has eased up, and she is not as troubled by the terrible nausea that bothered her so badly over the summer. Please continue to pray for Ida and her family. Her husband and sons are really having a hard time coming to terms with Ida's illness. There are a lot of family problems. I really appreciate all of your caring and loving prayers for Ida. You are one of the few who keep praying for her and show continued interest by asking for updates. Clearly, you are a very special person. Thank you so much. God bless you.
With Love, Jackie
Update 1/31/02
Dearest Charlotte, Ida is feeling weaker but is still fighting for her life. She has a stubborn fever that won't seem to go away and swelling around the site of her lung surgery.

Update 2/7/02
Dear Charlotte, Ida went into a coma and died last night. Thank you for your prayers. I do not think she suffered. I would like for you to pray for her family. Her husband, Butch and her two sons Artie and John also need prayer to heal and recover from her death. I will miss Ida very much. She was a wonderful person who tried to keep her life as normal as possible for as long as she could. She loved life and was a kind and unselfish person. God will love having her by his side. God bless you too. Thank you to all who lifted Ida up to the Lord in prayer. I will never forget your kindness.
Love Always, Jackie

Heavenly Father I lift up the families of these firefighters to you in prayer. The family of Karen Fitzpatrick, eighteen years old. She had just completed Forest Service firefighter training last month. She'd already fought three or four fires for the Naches Ranger District. Her father, John Fitzpatrick, says she was musical director in their church and had a beautiful voice. He says he and his daughter became born-again Christians last year. Devin Weaver, twenty-one years old was native of Yakima. His father, Ken Weaver, says he was fighting his first fire when he was killed, and loved what he was doing. Devin used to help his father at their family owned flower shop in Yakima. He finished two years at Yakima Valley College and was planning to enter the University of Washington in the fall, hoping for a career in engineering or high tech. Jessica Johnson, nineteen years old, was a student at Central Washington University in Ellensburg. She had graduated from West Valley High School in Yakima in 1999.  She was a volunteer, working with the West Valley Fire Department. She finished training with the Forest Service a couple of weeks ago. Tom Craven of Ellensburg, thirty years old had a wife Evelyn and two children. He worked as a firefighter for twelve years. He was raised in the Roslyn area and played football for Central Washington University in Ellensburg. These brave men and women sacrificed their life to save others. Lord I ask that you wrap the families of these brave firefighters in your arms of love. I ask that you give comfort to them and draw each one close to you. I ask that you give them strength to face each day without their loved one. I ask that you keep forever fresh the memories of their loved one within their hearts, not the memory of death, but the memory of life, the love and laughter that they shared together.  I ask that you place Christians in the path of each family to share the Good News of Christ with them. I ask that you open their hearts to feel, open their ears to hear and open their eyes to see the wonderful love of Christ. I pray for the salvation of those who have not accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior. I ask in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Heavenly Father I lift up my son Glenn to you in prayer. He had an accident in work last week which resulted in losing a cap from his front tooth, as well as leaving two other teeth loose. The dentist placed the cap back in place but said the other two teeth may require root canals. Lord I thank you that this is the only injury that he sustained considering that he fell face first onto a concrete floor. When I ask him what the dentist said, he stated that when she told him that two root canals may be needed, she told him to pray about it. That was the best advice that he could have heard. Lord I ask that you wrap my son in your arms of love. I ask that you draw him close to you. I ask that you heal his teeth completely and that no root canals will be needed. I ask that you place a desire in his heart to know you and to accept Jesus as his Lord and Savior. I ask that you place a hedge of protection around him and keep him safe as he travels to and from work, as he travels 50 miles one way each day. There are many churches in the area where he and his fiancée and son live, I ask that you place a desire in them to attend one. I ask that you lead them to one that will teach them your word. I pray for their salvation. I pray for my Grandson Justin, that you will keep him safe in your arms of love. I ask in the name of Jesus. Amen.
Update 7/19/01
Glenn came by this morning after having a cat scan done on his head. He is scheduled to see the doctor tomorrow for the results. He had been complaining of dizziness since his fall and the specialist that his company sent him to thought it best to send him for a scan to be on the safe side. Please continue in prayer that he will receive a good report. Thank you. In Christ Love Charlotte
7/30 Update
Glenn's cat scan showed that he has a concussion. The doctor said it will take about three to four months to heal. Last week he and his fiancée Dot broke up, her choice. He will be filing for rights to see his son. She only wants to give him every other weekend and that would hurt Glenn very much as he loves Justin and he is a wonderful father. Please pray that the Lord will touch Dot's heart and soften her heart as she is a very controlling person. Pray also that he will be able to find an apartment that will be affordable for his salary, and that his needs will be met financially to cover child support, rent, bills and food. Please keep them both in prayer for salvation as they need to place God in their lives.
