and a request for my father, who will have major surgery on 01-Oct-04 to remove a cancerous brain tumor that recently came out of remission.

1) My friend Carrie safely delivered a son, Elijah Samuel, on Tues. Mother, baby and Father are doing well, but tired.
2) Heather and Paul the missionary bear returned from South Africa on Thursday after a very rewarding and successful mission trip.
Thanks for the prayers that were said for my friends.

Please pray for my job search. I am employed at the moment but there are some things in the works that are causing me to seek out other employment. To go into detail here would take up most of the forum! I am also trying to seek direction if I should stay in my field or look into other possibilities. For awhile I have had some type of feeling I should be in missions or some type of ministry position. I am not sure exactly where that will lead, but I am praying that God will open the doors and that I will be bold enough to enter in. My devotion reading this morning was from Joshua..."Be strong and courageous!" Certainly advice I needed to read.
Thanks!

My best friend Chris goes in for knee surgery on Thursday the 16th. She has been waiting all summer to have a tendon repaired.

Thanks for the prayers all! And a selfish plea to keep them coming! Some recent news is forcing me to step up the job hunt. Looks like I will be looking to move as well. Hard decisions to make.....
for Chris. Knee surgery can be rough. Hope things will go smoothly!

I lift up Dana to your care as she faces surgery soon. I pray that she may be comforted by your love at this time and that you may guide all those who will care for her while she is in hospital. I ask Lord, grant her a swift and full recovery.
I also pray for Mike, Stephanie and Elizabeth. Help them through this difficult time. May they know that you are with them and that the thoughts and prayers of others are with them and Dana.
Through Jesus Christ, your son, our Lord
Amen
