Update on one of our pastors and friends


We have asked for your prayers for our friend where we built the church on the rock. He had a mini stroke about three weeks ago and has had to stop working his construction job. He is taking medicine to help balance out certain levels in his body that are thought to cause strokes. He had to stay in bed the first full week and now is getting back slowly with therapy for his left side which was effected. He is able to move the left side but has no strength in his left hand and pain on the whole left side of his body. He is able to move around now and do a little throughout the day. He has not been able to work to provide for his family. We asked y'all to pray and those who could, to give money to help pay for medicine, medical bills, and food for his family. Well, the Lord provided through your giving in a big way!!! We received $460 to give to him!! PRAISE GOD!! He and his wife were soo excited! They told me that they had to borrow money from other people to pay for the medicine and the medical bills and that would cover that payment and give them plenty to live on while he can't work. They said over and over that they would be praying for all of you who are praying for them and also helping them financially! They were very appreciative and prayed for God to bless each of you! So thank you very much for your prayers! I have received many emails from many of you saying that you are praying or that the church is praying for him. I have relayed all those emails to him. Thank you! And thank you to all who gave money to help them out while he recovers. Please keep praying for a complete and fast recovery for him! He is still preaching too and leading his church and working there for the Lord while recovering, but I have to keep reminding him to slow down and recover while he can! Thank you again!
