Sunday, August 26th Prayers & Praises

PRAYERS
Juan & Alisha~ 2 of Juan's brothers are still alive...making VERY slight improvements (1 was shot and the other beaten severely with a bat). Juan called his mother in Mexico to tell her of his brother who was killed. Since then, his mom has had to be put in the hospital. Also, pray for a sense of security for Juan & Alisha's children. E-mail lucaslifegroup@hotmail.com if you want to know more about helping Juan & Alisha during this time.

Cory & Jenny~ Jenny's mom (Barbara) had pneumonia this week and was put in ICU. They are hoping that she will be back in a room by Thursday. Pray, too, for Jenny's dad and their relationship.

Brendy~ Her baby boy (sorry I don't have his name...) is struggling with colic.

Clay & Christy~ Clay will be flying to Atlanta for an interview for a job that would include a lot of travel. Christy's mom has been in-and-out of psychiatric hospitals. Some of her doctors are recommending having her committed. Christy's sister, Brittney, is pregnant & due in January...she has been living with their mom and Christy is worried about her. Brittney seems to think that everything is going to be o.k. Clay's grandfather was found wandering around downtown Tupelo. They don't know how he got there (several miles from their home).

Brandi & David~ a friend of Brandi's found out that her husband has been cheating on her. They have been married 5 years and have a child.

Suzanne & Tommy~ Kerri, a co-worker of Suzanne, is having some health issues. Also, Suzanne has been trying to get Kerri and her husband to visit our church. Suzanne's dad is a farmer just north of Greenwood. Pray for all of the farmers in the Delta (and elsewhere) as they try to irrigate, etc., in record degree heat. A patient of Suzanne's, Annastasia, has been married 5 months. She came home 2 weeks ago and found a girl hiding in the closet. Pray for this situation.
