Prayer Requests for Week of 5/7/23:
Today (5/9) from Helen Johnston: Pray for comfort for the family of Serenity Van Raelty, specifically for her mom, Vania, and dad, Roger. Serenity was greeted by Jesus today as she entered into her eternal home. Praising God for her new body that is free from pain and illness.
An UPDATE & PRAISE on Gary Bourne from his family: Gary is doing much better today. The brain bleed has completely stopped, and the immediate threat is past. He is still in Neurological ICU at OSF Peoria, but the plan is to have him in a regular room ASAP. He is speaking and is generally himself. All of this is a HUGE answer to prayer. His wife, Marilyn, has flown back from Alaska and will be arriving at the Moline airport this afternoon (Tuesday). Jeff (Gary and Marilyn's son) and Jenn will pick her up and then they will all head to Peoria to be with Gary. Please continue praying for Gary for healing and strength and for minimal long-term effects from the stroke.
