Kay Denton (Mrs. Kay) – is home from the hospital now, though she continues to have with heart, kidney and lung difficulties with fluid buildup on the lungs and what may be a form of septic arthritis. She is doing much better. Every so often she has a flare-up of the severe shoulder pain, accompanied by chills and shivering- but the last time it happened was much relieved by Cortisone injections. Also, please pray for her to maintain her positive attitude. As always, she retains her trust in the Lord, she thankful to get her positive attitude back. Pray also for Mrs. Kay’s family and her close friend Len who are under great stress that they might also keep their trust in the Lord.

 Mrs. Kay asks that everyone who is praying for her know how grateful she is for their prayers.

Joy – She has a reoccurrence of abdominal cancer, which is non-operable. She is currently undergoing radiation treatment. She and her family ask your prayers for the treatment to do good and for her to tolerate it better. More importantly, she asks God’s help to deal with the pain and discomfort while keeping a positive attitude during what is a very trying time.

Greg Chase – was moving this weekend and last weekend. He finally made it through the move, but his back went out when he got out of bed last Sunday morning and last night he took a Flexoril and was out of it for 16 hours, thus missing church today. Please pray for a quick resolution to the back problem.

Nicole Ethridge - age 27, mother of two - Has a form of liver disease which is causing her liver to shut down. She is near dialysis and would like you to pray for her disease to go into remission so that she can keep off dialysis and avoid a liver transplant. She asks that you pray for her continued faith and good spirits, as well as strength to take care of her children.

Baby Marie, daughter of Bill and Andrea Baker of St. Andrew’s in Jacksonville, Oregon. Marie was born prematurely with immature lungs. She is now 2lbs. 2 oz.

Marie's lungs cannot function on their own. She has been on a high-frequency ventilator for 19 days. Over long periods of use, the ventilator itself can cause lung damage. Thus, a dilemma. That combined with having two lung viruses has put her in a position of relying only on a Miracle. Nothing more can be done medically for Marie. It is up to her and God's will. She is comfortable and doing extremely well in every other way. She is no longer on IVs for food, blood sugars are normal, no signs of jaundice. On one side there are high hopes; on the other side how much time is there for her here on earth?

Please pray that Marie will gain the function of her lungs and stay with us. Also, pray for the Baker family that they might maintain their trust in God and have strength throughout this ordeal.

Fran Dexter's cataract surgery went very well. She said the surgery was a piece of cake. She is seeing things so brightly, and it is good and really amazing- a miracle. She said the surgery was worth it if for no other reason than the beautiful, bright swirling colors she saw during the operation, she wishes she were an artist, and she would paint it. Her only difficult part was the doctor asked to please be quiet, and stop talking, as he was trying to work!!!!

Caroline (age 10, leukemia recurrence) was sent home from Children's Hospital over the weekend as her immune system finally reached an acceptable range, enabling her to go home just in time for Father's Day. If she remains fever-free during the next few weeks, she will enter City of Hope in Los Angeles on 30 June and will receive a bone marrow transplant within ten days.

Please pray for Caroline to remain well, to receive the transplant with no further delays, and for the transplant to be a success so that she may enjoy a long life of loving and serving God and His people. Pray for her family, too, as they relocate to Los Angeles for the next 6-12 months during Caroline's stay at City of Hope.

Lt. Col. Jeffrey Chessani - Thanksgiving for justice taking precedence over political correctness.

CAMP PENDLETON ---- A military judge has dismissed charges against a Marine officer accused of failing to investigate the killings of 24 Iraqis. Col. Steven Folsom dismissed charges Tuesday against Lt. Col. Jeffrey Chessani after defense attorneys raised valid and publicly acknowledged concerns a four-star general overseeing the prosecution improperly influenced the proceedings.

The charges were dismissed without prejudice, meaning they can be refiled, but Folsom excluded Marine Forces Central Command from future involvement.
