Prayer Requests and Updates
Updates-
December 19, 2011
Update concerning Louis Lawson, Jr.:
The X-rays taken after Louis Jr.’s accident shows the ‘S’ curve in the neck is gone and his hips are at two different levels. This is causing pain and muscle spasms from the neck to lower back He is now seeing a chiropractor to get things back in place. The chiropractor is also doing acupuncture for the stiff muscles, soreness and pain. Please continue prayers for God to relieve the pain, get the bones back where they belong and heal him completely. We pray for God to restore him to good health as he was before. (The chiropractor said it was a ‘hard hit’. I guess so as they are saying the damage is over $5000 to the car. It is not so visible on the rear end of the car, it is along the sides all way to the front and under the back end and in trunk.)
Thank you for the continued prayers for our son Louis.
Louis and Mary Lawson

Update concerning Mary Lawson:
Thanks for the prayers. God has answered them. The Cardiologist said I had a “false positive reading’ but that actually my heart is ‘Strong as a horse and there is almost no blockage’. They said actually, “for a woman your age, you have almost nothing in the veins. Less than normal”. They advised I continue with the meds. I didn’t, I quit them all! Why take heart meds if the heart is OK? God has answered my prayers! They said there is something else going on and on occasion it affects the heart. That is in God’s hands and we can now put all of it out of mind. Thanks for the prayers.

Update concerning Mr. York and his fall:
Mr. York had been in the hospital after a fall that he had had. They did x-rays to see how the bone in his arm was knitting together and healing. The last x-ray showed that the fracture has completely healed. He had been working very hard with the physical therapist so he could go home. He was able to go home on December 23rd. He is very weak but continuing to work hard with the physical therapist. One item of concern is that he is seeing visions and it is very upsetting to Mr. York. It is not known how long that will continue on. Hopefully the part of the brain that was injured will become healed and he’ll be the same as always. He is very happy to be home. The York’s very much appreciate the prayers and cards. They are very thankful to God to see His healing hand.
Please continue to pray for Mr. York’s complete healing.
Thank you,
Harold and Penny York

Dear Brethren,
It is rather late on Wednesday evening as I write. I wanted to inform you that my
mother died earlier today, peacefully in my home. I was able to be by her side when she died.
Thank you for your prayers. My mother was a wonderful mother who was married to my father for nearly 60 years. I am thankful to God that I had such a loving and giving mother. I will miss her deeply. I will have more to say this Sabbath.
There will be no public funeral service. My brother will be flying in for Thanksgiving and he and I will spend the day together.
Thank you once again for your prayers…please do not send flowers.
With Love,
Steven LeBlanc

Update concerning Xander, Jody and Cindy Smith’s grandson:
He has been diagnosed with Multicystic Dyplastic Kidney Disease. Most children only have it in one kidney and can lead a normal life. Xander has it in both. He has lost about 50% functioning in them. He will be checked every three months unless something changes. At some point in the future he will have to either have a kidney transplant or go on dialisis. He still lives in pain off and on and often doesn’t feel very good.
We know God can heal him and feel it is a miracle he is alive as this is something he was born with and most children die within hours of birth if both kidneys are affected.
Thank you for all the beautiful cards sent to the family. Xander enjoys looking at his cards and it has been encouraging to Danielle and Tyson to see so much love and support.

With Sadness
Dear Brethren,
It is with shock and much sorrow that I inform you that Charles Laing of North Carolina recently died. I received a phone call from his sister today. Charles died in his sleep. At this time I do not have information regarding his burial or any other details.
Charles was a good friend to many of us and he will be deeply missed. He helped many people in our church, and in his neighborhood where he lived. Charles feared God and lived an upright life.
He came from a large family… many who attend Churches of God. Please pray for the comfort of his siblings.
With Sadness,
Steven LeBlanc

Thank you,
The Altoms

The Lawson’s would like you to pray for Mary. She is having a problem with her heart. After the FOT she will will be having some tests. At that time they will decide what else they may have to do. Please pray that God will be with her and that God will open the blockage that she is suffering in her heart.
Louis and Mary Lawson
An Update on October 31, 2011:
The Lawson’s called to report the results of her heart cath. There were six small places with blockage, but they were small enough that nothing needed to be done at this time. Something else is causing the heart problem. We do not know what it is right now. Mary is to watch her diet, and she will go back in three months to see how she is doing.
Thank you for all the prayers!

Nancy Vernon requested prayers for her husband Don. As you know he has had neck pain from injuries in the past years and he is also dealing with a bone spur in his neck which has been putting pressure in his neck for some time. The past 3 or 4 days he has been in really severe pain. They have tried everything to alleviate the pain but nothing seems to be helping. Please pray for the pain to calm down.
Thank You
Nancy Vernon
–As an update, Don’s pain subsided a little within a few hours of prayers being requested. Please continue to pray for him as this is an ongoing pain.
