The problem is, my wife and I are currently in debt beyond what I could pay back without needing many years to do so.

Please pray for Michelle’s needs. She sent in the following request: “I wanted to let everyone know that my mother died last week. It was very sudden and traumatic. She was my best friend and I was her “baby” of 7 children. She loved Jesus with all of her heart and taught me how to trust in him. I am left to care for my father who lives with me. He is 83 and needs 24 hour supervision. I promised my mother that I would take good care of him. Prayer needed for God to continue to show his strong right hand in my life with regard to how this is all going to work out: me going back to work, patience and care of my father and for my unsaved boyfriend Jeff who is very dear to me. He is very receptive to the word of God, but something is just not “getting through.” I know only the Spirit of God can “give the increase,” as the seeds have been planted, and watered. It seems I have so many problems right now. I can’t quit smoking no matter how hard or how many times I try. I don’t think I’m depressed anymore, and that is the best thing of all. My son, Jimmy is back in my life as of Father’s Day and he and his girlfriend Lindsay are slowly allowing me time with my grandson Max. Please pray about this relationship. I want to be a good grandmother to him, as my mother was to my son. Thank you for SEAPC. I know there are those who are praying for me and it is such an encouragement to know that my brothers and sisters in Christ are there and care. Please share this with others. Thank you, Michelle”

Chuck Lenhart, a good friend of SEAPC, needs prayer for his son, Christopher. This is his request, “Please be praying for our second son Christopher. He is in Children’s Hospital in Pittsburgh. In recent weeks Christopher’s seizures have become more frequent. It does not seem as if medication is helping him, so the hospital is putting him into preliminarily tests to see if he can be operated on. Being that Christopher’s seizures are mild and are isolated to a small part of the right side of his brain, he may benefit from some kind of surgery. These test will start tomorrow and through the week. Wendy is with him full-time and I go in during the day. Please hold up our precious son Christopher that he will receive a healing from the Lord. ~The Lenhart Family”
