Patricia McFerran
January 20: Please be in prayer for Patricia McFerran. She stood up this morning from her chair and suddenly was hit with debilitating back pain, to the point where she could barely walk. She was able to get in to see her chiropractor right away, and received some relief, but is still in considerable pain. Please pray for healing.
Also, Patricia requests prayer for her son-in-law who lives in Sudbury and works as a tow-truck driver. He had just come back to work after a lengthy cold/flu virus, and then fell on ice this morning, badly hurting his wrist, and is now waiting 6+ hours in Emergency to get help and results. Please pray for him as he needs to be able to work to provide for his small family. We pray that God will work in both these situations for His Glory.
Esther Ruller
January 5: Esther Ruller passed away at home around noon yesterday. Please pray for her family as they make arrangements for her memorial service and grieve their loss. The memorial service will take place on Thursday, January 8 at 11am at Tallman Funeral Home in Vineland followed by a reception in the Fireside room.
Peter McBride
December 20: Kerri’s brother passed away yesterday around 3 pm while in Hospice Niagara.
Prayers are appreciated for the family at this time. Arrangements are being made and will follow, but will not take place till after Christmas.
December 19: Peter has been moved into Hospice as of yesterday. The cancer has spread into his lungs and is very aggressive at this point. Continue to pray for softened heart and that the Lord will draw him close at this time.
Update from Audrey Harder
December 12: A consultation with my esophageal cancer oncologist this week confirmed that the cancer has metastasized and has spread basically to the liver and back. This accounts for the constant chest and back pain. The walls of the esophagus have also thickened which causes increased difficulty swallowing. I will be going soon for another procedure to help with that, and he has ordered an MRI to clarify if the cancer is showing up elsewhere and what else might be going on in this aging body. Dr. Sur's prognosis is that I have six months to a year - but he leans toward the earlier date. Karen replied, "You don't know my mom!" More importantly, he does not know "my Father!" My first reaction was how gracious of the Lord to give us this notice so that we can take advantage of the time we have to discuss and plan for the future as a family. I have total peace and actual joy - "As for me, my life has already been poured out as an offering to God." (2 Timothy 4:6a). Thank you for your ongoing support in prayer and many other ways. Blessings and love, Audrey
