PCF is loving our new home at Esic Baptist Church. The Esic Folks have been very warm, welcoming and accommodating and we thank them for such a wonderful kickoff in our new home.
As we get settled, there are so many possibilities ahead of us! Here are a few.
- Esic has a wonderful nursery and play room for children!
- The choir is growing!
- There is huge potential for young families to join us!
To me, these are exciting times. I am counting on all of you to get the word out. There is church on Sunday mornings at 9:00am at 1000 Esic Drive in Edwardsville with a wonderful choir and a family of welcoming believers.
Matthew 28:19-20
“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
Prayers:
- Sandy Peterson, Sandy is scheduled to have knee replacement surgery this week. We ask for prayers of complete and rapid recovery for Sandy.
- Keith Sedlacek, I received news this week that Kieth is doing better and will now begin a new therapy. He will have a new CT scan this next coming week and we pray that this scan will show remission and healing. Keith was diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer.
- Beverly Farm, Please lift the Beverly Farm Caregivers in prayer. They are greatly understaffed and they are working hard with a lot of overtime. They need God’s strength, patience, energy, and peace. Also pray that God will send the right people to fill the many care giver openings and for God’s wisdom and strength for the current management team at the Farm.
- Sheryl Burian, Sheryl has had one of her knees replaced this past week. She is still struggling with some pain but definitely sounds better than my first call to her, so we ask for God’s healing touch fo a full recovery.
- Rusty Burian, Rusty is having severe nerve pain into his legs from a pinched nerve in his back. We pray for God’s healing grace and strength as he prepares for corrective surgery.
- John Grant. John we continue to lift up to the perfect Healer for his heart issues. He is scheduled to get a procedure soon that will help him get back to a more normal life. We pray for success for this procedure.
- Stephanie Powell, the daughter of Mary Knapp. Stephanie is facing an extremely difficult situation with her mentally handicapped 30 year old son who lives with her. He has gotten aggressive and violent and she cannot find a facility to help her. Let’s pray for God to intervene with an answer for her and her son Conner.
- Michelenne Bounds, one of Bonni’s best friends, is having some serious eye problems due to a degenerative form of arthritis. Please pray for God’s intervention and healing touch.
- Susan Dedmon, Susan is the sister of John Grant. John called me this week and asked for prayers for his sister because she has also been diagnosed with congestive heart failure. She was struggling with fluid in her lungs so we need to lift her up to the healer of all healers. We ask for your love, peace, mercy, and healing strength for both John and his sister Susan.
- Mary and Leland Knapp, Mary is having trouble with her eyesight and Lee is having some issues with his walking. We ask for God’s mighty hand of healing and love and peace for the both of them.
- All who are seeking a deeper relationship and deeper understanding of Jesus’ teachings.
- Courage to be bold for Jesus with our neighbors and family.
