Prayer Request - Bella Layrer

/

Please pray for 6 year old Bella Layrer, Brenda Layrer's granddaughter.  Many of you prayed for her when she was just a baby.  Her seizures have intensified recently and we are praying for healing and wisdom for her doctors.  She had over six (6) seizures this past Friday alone. 

The family appreciates your prayers and ask specifically that our Hollydale UMC family pray.

Thank you for your heart.

 Message from Pastor April………

Coming up next Monday, September 11th, churches are joining together to have some onsite prayer at both the Powder Springs Police Station and the Cobb County Fire Station next to Compton Elementary School.

9/11 is the perfect day to pray for our public servants. We will meet at the Powder Springs Police Station at 5:30pm and will pray outside and then go in at 5:45pm to pray with officers at the shift change. We will then go to the Fire station (park at Compton) and pray there at 6:30pm.This event is open to anyone who wishes to pray for our police and fire personnel. Feel free to pass this on to any others that might participate. Thank you.

Please continue to keep my brother-in-law, Jerry Wade, sister Sandy and their family in your prayers.  As mentioned in an earlier email a few days ago, Jerry was to undergo a PET Scan for cancer and a biopsy on his lungs.  The tests showed cancer in the left lung, lymph node and liver and is at stage 4.  They will start chemo next week and said it will just keep him comfortable, he could live 4 months or up to a year.  They will be doing an MRI on his brain next week as this type of cancer usually travels to the brain.  Pray for my sister Sandy who is scared to death.  Pray for acceptance, courage, understanding, strength, patience, comfort and healing.  Also pray for the medical team that will be taking care of him and that his care is the absolute best there is out there.  Thank you.

Please keep Kasey Smith, the sister of my daughter’s friend in your prayers.  Below is a note Kristen sent me regarding this poor young woman’s struggles.  Pray for comfort and healing and that whatever hospital she is in that they take better care of her than what this message indicates.  Thank you.

Our friend Charles’s sister, Kasey Smith, is in the hospital and has been for almost 2 weeks. She was vomiting blood and having bloody stool, she went to the ER a couple of times and they couldn’t tell her anything and sent her home. The last time she went, they admitted her. She had a liver transplant as a child, so she has had problems in the past. When they admitted her, they did a liver biopsy. During the biopsy she contracted E.coli, which in turn sent her body into toxic shock. They had to put her in a coma, and Nicole used the term paralyze her body. She was in ICU until a couple of days ago when they woke her from the coma. She’s doing ok, and is now on the liver transplant floor (I would assume because of her history). She will have to go to residential physical therapy, not sure for how long, since her body was paralyzed for over a week. She’s only in her mid-twenties, so she’s young and hopefully can make a full recovery. Charles and Nicole are getting married in November so they’re also concerned if Kasey will be able to be a part of it or even be there for that matter.

Please keepStanley & Louise Whitein your prayers.  As many of you know they were involved in an auto accident a couple weeks ago and had their two grandsons with them.  All are okay health wise, but their truck was totaled and now they have to work through all the insurance red tape and replacement of a vehicle.  Pray they get quick answers and are not burdened with costs they shouldn’t have to bare due to someone else’s fault.  Thank you.

Please continue to keep my sister ,Ketiva Lynch, in your prayers.  As I’ve shared in the past, Ketiva suffers with Lupus which is a chronic inflammatory, auto-immune disease that attacks your tissues and organs.  Inflammation caused by lupus can flare up at any time and affect any part of your body including your joints with bone deterioration, skin issues, kidneys, blood cells, brain, heart and lungs.  She is in pain constantly due to the lupus and takes 20+ medicines a day to try and battle it.  Yesterday, she was told by her Orthopedist that she has a rotator cuff issue and her left elbow is deteriorating from arthritis.  She’s only 47 years old!  She is in tears from the pain all over her body and just prays for a break from this disease.  Please pray for comfort for Ketiva and that answers and a cure can be found to rid this disease from her and all that suffer from it.  Thank you.
