Thank you all so much for your sweet prayers and concerns, the Lord has heard! I went to my doctor this morning and he confirmed my suspicion, the mass which I was going to have surgically removed Wednesday is GONE!!!! Praise Jesus! Apparently, these cysts don't just go away, if they rupture on their own it is extremely painful. I experienced no such pain. My doctor did seem somewhat surprised, I explained that many people have been praying for me and that I think the Lord healed me.
" I sought the Lord, and He answered me,
And delivered me from all my fears.
They looked to Him and were radiant,
And their faces will never be ashamed."
" O, taste and see that the Lord is good;
How blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him!"
Psalm 34:4-5,8
Love and Peace,

Praise God For Answered Prayer!
Good evening everyone…… this is perhaps the best day in our lives! P.J. had a bone marrow aspirate Wednesday morning; we learned today that he has less than 5% leukemic cells in his marrow which means he is in remission!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There is a God……. And prayers from so many friends makes a huge difference. P.J. will still need to finish his chemo protocol because AML is a vicious and aggressive disease, but he is beating it, and the fact that he is in remission after the first round of chemo is HUGE!!!! We do not know when he will start round two, probably just after Christmas, but going back to the hospital now will be far easier knowing that we are already winning! He has so many guardian angels, and the weird thing is that he knows them. He tells us who comes to put good cells in his body when he sleeps…… they are people he has never known. The Lord works in mysterious ways…….. please continue to pray for a cure, and please thank God for what P.J. has accomplished this far in the fight!
Have a blessed holiday….. we will pray that your prayers are answered just as our have been!

Healing of Hemorrhage
One month before my 30th birthday, I was told that I would need a hysterectomy. Three days later, I was in the hospital. The second week after surgery, I had a reaction to the need medication and found myself very ill. In the midst of my sickness, scar tissue gave way and I began to hemorrhage.
Initially, the bleeding was slow, so we had time to see if my body could heal itself. After four more weeks, it looked like we would need another surgery. Still anemic from the first and unable to take the needed iron, I feared another surgery.
The afternoon before I was to meet with my doctor to schedule the surgery, I received a call from a prayer team member. When asked if I wanted to be added to the prayer list, I froze. Over the last year and a half, my family has covered the prayer list. First, my son was stabbed by a pencil which broke off in his leg, requiring surgery to correct. Three months later, my husband fell from a roof and shattered his leg. A year of operations and recovery filled the prayer list. Then it was my hysterectomy. I couldn’t bring myself to see my name on the list again.
The prayer warrior asked if she could pray with me over the phone, and I agreed. Within five minutes, the weeks of bleeding were over. The good news continued the next morning when my doctor released me from his care.
James 1:17 says, “Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.”
God Bless,
Kimberly

The Finger Of God Heals
A few weeks ago, Lara and Ty Cornell brought their infant son James, to a Wednesday night service for prayer. James had been diagnosed with hepatitis C. The community prayed for complete healing and asked for the hepatitis C to leave James' body "in the name of Jesus”. Later, when the doctor did additional tests ...
James did not have Hepatitis C!
"We were so ecstatic, and know that the Lord healed him. He will have additional tests when he is 12 months old, but I know that he is healed." ~Joanie Dean
God heard and answered our prayers - and we are so thankful!
O LORD my God, I cried out to You,
And You healed me.
Sing praise to the LORD, you saints of His,
And give thanks at the remembrance of His holy name.
To the end that my glory may sing praise to You and not be silent.
O LORD my God, I will give thanks to You forever.
Psalm 30: 2; 4; 12
