Pray for Lorene and Family

My friend's sister died of cancer last week... Jolene, the girl that died, was only sixteen. Lorene, her younger sister, is now left by herself. They had shared a bedroom. Also, her older sister is getting married in December leaving her the only girl at home (she also has another married sister and some brothers). 

Please pray for Lorene and her family and friends. 
Thank you! -Alison

Please pray for little Gabriel Zachary

This prayer request is from a blog that I follow...I will update you as often as possible - thank you for praying.

~Jenna


Jessica is 17 weeks pregnant with my little nephew, Gabriel Zachary!  Here's where the prayers are desperately needed:



At her routine 12 week visit, the doctor found 2 hemorrhages inside of her womb. In the course of 5 weeks, one has passed but the other has grown. It now makes up 75% of the uterine lining. 

It is attached to the placenta which is lying partially over her cervix. The placenta has torn away from the uterine wall. 

The doctors say that every week she is pregnant is a miracle, and they are truly baffled when she returns pregnant.

Her specialist, who is also a Christian, said that it will be a miracle if she makes it to viability (24 weeks), and that there’s nothing he can do to help her get to that point.

Thankfully he knows that it is our miracle-working Savior who can remedy this whole situation for His glory. As of today's visit (September 9th), they just want Jessica to get to 22 weeks ( 4.5 more weeks) before putting her in the hospital for daily monitoring and steroid injections. 

They don’t believe she'll be pregnant by Thanksgiving. Gabriel Zachary has grown on track thus far.   

There will come a time when what’s left of the placenta won’t be enough to keep him growing...

Will you join me in prayer?
