REQUESTS AS OF 03/23/2025:
Tami – I’d like to ask for prayers for Lee. She’s getting a little [?]. I’d like to ask for prayers for Lava… her travels and her pain. She has a lot of back trouble. I’d like to thank JR for doing the yard and making the house look good and clean. I’d like to ask for prayers for the swelling in my legs… they’re not doing good right now. Lee has a lot of swelling… I’d like to ask for prayers for MCC Pittsburgh… for Lou… for stepping in. I’d like to ask for prayers for Colleen… she’s going to be OK.
Vince – I’d like to pray for our church family and to pray for all those people who have no one to pray for them. Amen.
Rob – Prayers for our church community. For everybody: family, friends and pets. And prayers for our country and prayers for peace on earth and good will between all peoples. And prayers for our planet earth and the species on it.
Jason – I’d like to ask prayers for our leaders… our country is not going in a great direction right now as far as I’m concerned. I think God’s hand needs to be upon them and upon all of us. I also want to pray for Russ’s daughter. I was over there on Thursday and left on time to get to Bible Study, but still didn’t make it. She is struggling right now. She’s trying to do everything herself: paperwork. There’s so much stuff to go through. She’s not doing well. [She’s under pressure to get it done and is not getting any help.] Prayers that God is upon Bryce, the daughter, to be able to move at a pace that’s comfortable for her and to get through everything. [Lou: and that everybody else is patient.] Russ’s daughter works for the government and may not have a job. A buy-out was offered and she’s considering taking it. She and her husband just bought a new house.
Diane – I’m praying for Russ’s daughter that she can accept help. Prayers for Genesis and his son. Genesis is having some kind of attack. He was on the phone and went unconscious before he could finish. His 4-year old son picked up the phone asked for them to come and help. The cause may have been something he drank. Prayers for my sister, as usual, and her family. She’s still grieving her dog. They still don’t know if her son’s wife will keep her job in the government. Prayers for everyone at church… everyone who’s having challenges… especially people who are going through natural disasters.
Bill - I ask and I pray for the needs of the people of this MCC and of their families, relatives, and friends and pets and thankful for the other MCC’s; and for our senior elderly & of people in misery in nursing homes who feel isolated and alone. And for those in abusive situations that they are given peace of mind. And whether all these needs be: Spiritual, Housing, Job wise, Health wise, Financially or otherwise. . And for Lou’s needs and circumstances as well extended to his immediate family. And for my brother Steve his needs and circumstances and that through the kindness and mercy of others that he will finally [have] peace and contentment. For my sister, Sharon, that she has peace and contentment for her house situation, her job situation, her car situation, and her family situation. And for my niece Valerie is still motivated to keep up the good work on her new job and her needs and circumstances. And for JJ, my nephew, that he keeps up his strength in keeping the family together and doing what he can but also enjoying some positive moments to keep him going. And for my nephew Cody that he’s given the strength to make wise decision that God will give him the mercy and strength to do so, as well, that it may benefit himself as well as his family. And for my own special intentions… thank you.
Lou – keep Colleen (who is not here today) in your prayers that she’s feeling better. Keep Angela in your prayers. She ended up back in the hospital last night with intestinal problems. They admitted her. They might be doing surgery. She’s worried and in pain. Keep Rich in your prayers on his travels. Keep us all in our physical needs.
Dear God in heaven we’re grateful to be here… grateful, that, though separated by some distance, yet we see, we hear each other, we love each other. We care… as we know you do. Thank you for your love. Thank you for our love for each other. May our love be strengthened. Give us the faith that we need that, even through trials, you are with us, that we have nothing to fear… even though fear is an easy emotion to come when we have so many issues, but help us always to change that fear into faith… change that worry into putting our hands into your hands, because you love us. And, though life is difficult, we know that you have our best in your heart. Bless each person… each prayer request, that we will trust in you, that we will trust in your love, and have faith that that love never fails. In Christ’s name we pray. Amen
