Prayer Request


Emergency Medical Flights are not unusual in Harold's line of work, but every so often there is one that grabs my heart and won't let go. Tomorrow he will be bringing this little girl back to the United States for surgery this coming week. The doctors don't expect her to make it through surgery, but felt like they had to try. It is a lot of pressure on the pilots knowing that someone is critically ill, especially when it is a little child. This little girl is only three years old. The tumor is growing so rapidly that the missionaries who are caring for her say that it was noticably larger just over the weekend. Please keep all of them in your prayers tomorrow and in the coming week. I will try to update when we have some more information.

This precious child will be in my prayers. I would love to see a miracle take place in her life. You said it well when you mentioned the fact that it grabbed your heart. I can't imagine the pain of seeing your child go through this. Harold and his team are true heroes to assist in this effort.

Wow, what a moving story. Sometimes it would be nice to be able to "fix" everything and see the suffering cease. Heaven will be an amazing place - if only for that reason.
