Post-Choir Prayer report

We began choir rehearsal tonight with a season of prayer.

There were four main requests, all of which I want to pass on to you.

1)  Dienna Rogers' 24-year old son Richard Gamache will be buried tomorrow.  His services are at 10am at Dimond & Shannon Mortuary in Garden Grove.  The family has requested that in lieu of flowers, contributions be given to CRIME SURVIVORS, INC.  

2)  Daun's mother, Ruth Garrison.  If she doesn't wake up with some alertness tomorrow morning, hospice nurses will interpret that as an indication that her body is shutting down.  In that case, the prognosis is anywhere from 48-72 hours.  Let's pray that she wakes up with some energy in the morning.

3)  Michelle Pate's sister Cheri Diaz.   It looks like they are definitely going to lose their home through foreclosure.  This is and extremely difficult and stressful situation for her family.  (Her husband's mother is very seriously ill in a distant city.  Very sad.  Cheri and Juan have four children.

4)  GOOD NEWS - Janet Overton told a beautiful story about the imminent reunion of her sister with a son she hasn't seen since his birth.  I can't go into details here, but it's a moving story, worthy of a Hallmark special!

So, please keep these updates in mind as you continue your praying.    Of course, we will be in special prayer for John and Michon's  friend Dawn.
