Bashir Ahmed, father of Shamim Gray, father in law of Commander Obra Gray for whom we prayed while he was deployed to Iraq and on various carrier deployments, is gravely ill. Bashir lives in London. He has been in the hospital for some time, it seems there is little they can do for him. Bashir had a major stroke the night of 15 July 2009. He is still in ICU. Shamim sorted out a private nursing agency to sit with Bashir three nights out of the week, since her mum is so tired, and refuses to leave him alone despite there being nurses in the ward area. That way Mum gets to sleep at home every other night. Please pray that the medical staff will do their best for him. Please pray God will deliver a miraculous recovery for Bashir; if that not be God’s will, a departure in peace to His world for him. Please pray also Mum will be able to get some rest so she does not deteriorate herself. Shamim keeps her faith in the Lord. Above all, please pray also for his family to open their hearts to accept all God’s love will bring them.
Linda is embarking on a new venture to bring music therapy to developmentally challenged young people from a Christian perspective. She is investigating the potential need and environment south of the American border. She asks that you pray for her that she might discern God’s will, her abilities and the need; grant her safe travel.
Madelyn Calvert born Sunday 7 June 2009 to Sarah at 24 weeks and one pound seven ounces. She is doing well and now weighs TWO POUNDS! Thanks be to God for her continued growth. Please pray Madelyn will continue to grow and for God’s love for her and her family on the roller coaster of ups and downs. Pray for them to reach out to those around them who would provide support with God’s help. Pray for the medical personnel taking care of Madelyn.
