Prayer Requests

[Zerbie]

Dear Vern,

What a courageous thing you did showing up and sharing your vulnerable self with your congregation. What a gift for them!!

How wonderful your little girl (doesn't matter does it, even if we're all grown up and married? we're still the little ones) was more alert and feeling better today. I'm glad for your family.

I guess that's what being in the arms of life is like. Scary and completely real. Makes you appreciate how transient things are (and how superficial we make so much of this world to be.)

Love you.

[RevVW]

Good night all, thank you for a wonderful close to a difficult but wonderful day. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Love, Vern

Praying for your family's peace and rest... and your daughter's continued health.

Peace,
Nate

[Daniel]

You are in my prayers, thoughts and meditations.

Wanted to let all know how things are going. The Dr's did an ultra-sound on her legs, and a C.T. on her lungs, neither showed any change. They have increased her dosage of blood thinners, and told us it is a wait and see situation. Frankly, none of us are doing very well.

As the day wore on today, Nicole seemed to brighten quite a bit, and I was grateful to see that.

Thanks for your prayers, we are exhausted.

Charley's symptoms continue unabated despite the drug therapy. He is scheduled for a heart catheterization early tomorrow. Please pray. I find myself numb with worry.

[RevVW]

BenL, We share your corcern, and hold you and Charley in our thoughts and prayers. Vern

[RevVW]

BenL, We share your concern, we will hold you and Charlely in our thoughts and prayers. Vern

Still praying.

This morning I chose to sleep in just a little. Poured a cup of coffee and walked down the path to the paper box to collect the morning paper. Walking back up the path I saw that one of our Azalea bushes is now in full bloom, a bright beautiful pink, and absolutely covered in blossoms. I smiled, then realized it was the only one blooming, the others all in bud, not yet opened. Well, you've gotten to know me a bit by now, I started crying, I really feel it was sign of our God's love and concern about and for our daughter. I again feel that peace, that all will be well.

Thanks again for your prayers, and Kara, thank you for reminding me to "feel the power of people's prayers", it works, just gotta remember to do it. Love, Vern

[Zerbie]

Vern and Ben,

Sending much love to both of you and your respective families.

to both families

Vern, wow, your daughter, and you and your family have been through so much the last few days. I will continue to keep all of you in my thoughts and prayers. It's good to sometimes have alone-time and sort things out. Please keep the faith, and many blessings (and healing!) to you and yours.

Ben, praying for you and Charley as well. Hope and pray that all goes well with the surgery and recovery, and that it will help Charley get better. God bless you!

Good news. Nicole is coming home today, still some issues to deal with, but the Dr's say they can deal with those as an out-patient.

Thank you for your support and prayers through this very trying time.

All of you remain in my prayers.

Vern, I'm so happy to hear that. What a wonderful way to celebrate Easter - talk about resurrection! kara
