Lord, thank you for all
the blessings you have
given us.
We thank you for the friends that you have put in our lives here at St. Mark. Please help us to be responsive to their needs, praying that they remember you are with them, you hear them, you will comfort them and give them peace.
We offer this prayer of St. Augustine:
Watch thou, dear Lord, with those who wake, or watch, or weep tonight, and give your angels charge over those who sleep. Tend your sick ones, Lord Christ. Rest your weary ones. Bless your dying ones. Soothe your suffering ones. Pity your afflicted ones. Shield your joyous ones. And all for your love’s sake.
Amen.

“I have another back surgery on October 30, and two more sometime in November, so pray for those to be successful and with limited pain. Also that I would be able to find a pain clinic who accepts Medicaid and does opioid therapy. Also please pray that I can truly rest and commit to pacing to not have a Long Covid flare that wrecks my central nervous system and immune system.”

“It’s been a very long time since my last medical update, and as you can imagine it has continued to be a crazy roller coaster ride! The cancer has spread to the right lower lobe and I am back to chemo and immunotherapy. We found this out several months ago and have relied on the team of Doctors to make the best decisions along with our own research. I feel good, but noticing some limitations with increased cough and low stamina (blamed on radiation inflammation and being treated with a very long course of steroids). I’ve had some pretty bad headaches and have a brain scan next week. I have tried to be very open and transparent with this journey. I am doing this because of the power of prayer! Please put me on your churches prayer lists, tell it to your prayer warriors and bible study groups. I have beat the odds! 50% of Lung cancer patients typically live 5 years. I’m at 5 years and 3 months!!! Enjoying life, traveling as much as I can, grateful for every day and leaning on the Lord! Thank you from the bottom of my families hearts!”
