Steve Carver has requested prayer from all of us. He went to the doctor this week and learned he has an enlarged liver. They are taking steps to correct the issue, but could use some prayer surrounding peace and healing.
Lyle Loomis is in the hospital for Bronchial Pneumonia. He was admitted upon returning from a 2-week trip to the East Coast.
He is doing better after quite a scare, but will remain there for the next 2-3 days. Please pray for God’s touch on his life and for a quick recovery.

Here’s an update from Nedia about her uncle who had open heart surgery on Tuesday. His name is Peter Olasiman. He is at Alta Bates Summit Medical Center in Oakland.
My uncle’s surgery was successful! He had the root of the aorta replaced and also they unexpectedly had to replace the aorta valve too. The surgery started on time, 7:40am and went on until about 3:30pm (on Tuesday).
As of 7:30am yesterday (Wed) morning, he hadn’t woken up yet and he had a fever. The doctors also found out that he had a respiratory infection. They were treating him with antibiotics. He eventually did wake up and was responsive. So, so far so good. I haven’t heard from anyone on his status today yet. But I will definitely keep you guys updated. Please continue to pray for his healing & the infection to go away.
On behalf of my family, we would like to thank you all for your prayers already! It is said that when 2 or more people join together, God is there….and when God is there, miracles happen. I truly believe that with all of our prayers for my uncle, God will make an awesome miracle happen with his full & speedy recovery! So thank you so much for keeping us in your prayers!
