Asking for your prayers....

Please pray for a family friend, Roy. He was recently diagnosed with cancer. When the doctors went in to remove it, they discovered that it spread and there is nothing that they can do. If they removed it during the operation, he would have died on the table, so they left it alone.

I will be praying for your friend. Be sure to tell him to hold on and trust God. HE is always in control. God Bless.

NuQueen,

We are stretching out our hands in love, support and prayer for Roy. Roy needs to be reminded that, The Grand Physician may not be calling him home just yet, and that the 'good fight' is in order. We are asking that GOD place His eternally protective and girding arms around Roy, granting him providence. These earthly doctors may not have been able to take it out, but truly, Dr. GOD can.

Sorors and Friends,

first let me say i love this page. it's such a blessing. i'm sending out prayers to those in need.
i'm here to ask you all to pray for my fiance' David McMullen's mother, Mary McMullen. she passed away on March 13th after a lengthy battle with cancer. he and his family are trying to be brave at such a tough time and any kind thoughts sent their way would be most appreciated.
thank you for reading.

Soror, I will pray for him, his family and you also, as one of his main supporters. I went through a similar situation as the main supporter for someone who lost his mother last summer so feel free to PM me if you'd like to discuss. It can be very taxing on you as a supporter while also grieving yourself as well so that's why I said that I would pray for you as well.

WenD08,

You, your future husband and your soon to be in-law family should rejoice in knowing that your mother-in-law did not fall victim to cancer, but rather, she gained glory. Many of us here on GC can understand the collage of emotions that you all are feeling right now. I too lost my mom to cancer last March, March 14th to be exact, and there is no sense of pain, like that , than having to release your parent(s), or any loved one for that matter, to Heaven.
As you already know to be, you coupled with his belief and faith, are David's crutch. Remind him that it is now his job to insure that moms didn't go without having left behind an incredible legacy for him and the rest of the family to hold high. Continue to strengthen him, especially during what can sometimes be moments when the dark cold recesses of the emotional maze that he's traversing, seems unsurmountable. You all are to find peace in Mother Mary's homegoing. She is surrounded by the only true eternal love that last, and she is now healed.

Soror Summerchild and 7thSonofOsiris,

thank you all for your lovely words. i'm about to cry myself! i feel really good in knowing that i knew her and that she was happy for us. also knowing that after her struggle that she is at peace helps a lot.

SummerChild · #8 03-19-2007, 04:46 PM

Soror WenD08, try to take comfort in that. Also, you will be able to tell your children (if you decide to have children) about their Grandmother from a firsthand perspective. I will continue to pray for you and your fiance and the family.

My dad has kidney failure which set off some other illnesses. He has been hospitalized for the past week. Please pray for his healing, strength, and recovery. Thanks!

I ask that who ever will pray for my family as we celebrate Denita's life and cope with her untimely death one year later...

Denita interned for a local paper so there is an article on www.Charlotte.com about this already...hopefully someone will be held accountable for this senseless loss...

Soror, I will keep you and your family in prayer during this time of sorrow. I pray that the Holy Spirit will rest upon you and give you peace.

Love ya!

Sorors and GC friends,

Now it's me standing in the need of prayer...

The matriarch of my paternal family is in the hospital. She is 90ish. It is a scare, but through talking to quite of few PCPs, I am surely comforted and blessed to know that God says she is not finished, yet...

She worked closely with my grandfather who was the president of Bethune-Cookman for 28 years. Later on, she changed wayward elementary kids lives that are still remembered as they turn 50 years old. She is an awesome, God-fearing woman, whose wisdom extends across the Universe and into the Heavens.

I wish my grandmother was EVERYONE'S grandmother and I am here to share her livelihood with you all!

Stay blessed.

Dr. AKA_Monet

Thanks for all that prayed for Roy. He went home to the Father this morning.

I have a major issue with this but I'll address it an open letter.
