Thank you all for praying for Bev and Les. They attended church with us at Quail Run and are wonderful folks. Join us in prayer:
Merciful Father, We pray for Bev and ask for a healing touch from You, the Great Physician. We pray that Bev will come through surgery and that the surgeons will be able to repair every broken bone and every physical problem. We ask you to provide the best care available for Bev and a miraculous recovery. Comfort both Bev and Les with peace and faith in You. We pray for friends, family and strangers to be available to Les for prayer and comfort and support and meet every need. Thank you, Lord, for the privilege of knowing Bev & Les and being a part of the family of believers across the U.S. who are praying for them and loving them. Hebrews chapter 4:16 tells us to “draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” Help us all to grow closer to You, Heavenly Father, during this time and continue to praise You for You are good, all the time. We ask these things because of Jesus Christ, our Lord, and in His Name alone. Amen.

Sorry to hear about Les and Bev's problems. We will hope and pray that she recovers completely. Also, we sure hope your daughter gets along with her surgery, too. I know you are excited to see your other grandkids in Oklahoma. Enjoy!
Please keep us updated on Bev's condition. She's in our thoughts and prayers.
Thanks
