These prayer requests are sent to me by fellow believers who realize the power of prayer. As Christians it is our charge, as instructed by our Lord, to "Pray for One Another". He tells us that as born again believers, whatever we ask for in His name, shall be given to us. Please join us in praying for the needs of our brothers and sisters in Jesus! If you have a request, you can submit it to us using the button near the bottom of the page. We update this list daily, so lets all use this power of prayer!

Yeshua HaMashiach!

For:  Her cousin's family

Nature:  (Robin's words) I have a cousin who committed suicide last evening. Please pray for my aunt, uncle and my cousin's brother and for all of our family. My cousin Donna,  who is 40 years old, married someone quite a bit younger than herself in the last  couple of years. Her husband's mother has NEVER  been pleased at all with the marriage - trying to get her son to get out of the marriage early on. He moved his things out this past week-end,  then her mother in law visited her yesterday and brought a notary with her and commenced to try to get Donna to sign a bunch of papers. My uncle and aunt were with her later,  and then left her around 6 pm yesterday evening, because Donna  told them she had to get some rest because she had been very upset and had to work today. They tried to contact her later in the evening and upon getting no response,  my uncle went to her house and found that she had hung herself. Thanks for all of your prayers.

Made by:  Doug Blakemore

For:  See below

Nature:  (Doug's words) My mother died a few days ago and I will be preaching part of her funeral this next Saturday.  Please  pray that the Holy Spirit will fill my mouth with words that will honor  Him.  My mother was 86 and ready to go home.  She didn't talk much about her faith but always showed it in what she did and how she lived.  I had the opportunity over the years to talk to her about Christ and she had confirmed to me that she had accepted Him.  The funeral will be - by her request more of a memorial and a celebration than a funeral. I keep thinking that we are so close, it isn't impossible at all to imagine that she join us for it as Christ brings the dead in Christ back to Earth just before our departure!

Please pray for his recovery since the doctors don’t have any hope for him. He is now in a coma and the family is devastated. His father is also getting married next month so please keep that in prayer. His dad is Ralphy the attorney who comes here once in a while. Thanks for your prayers.
