Please pray for me, and I am sorry to be asking again. I feel overwhelmed and discouraged. I have been praying for our house to sell, but nothing is happening. At 76, I am also facing a mass on my heart valve. Please pray that God will bless us with a very quick sale of our house so we can move forward and relieve this burden. Your prayers mean more to me than words can express. Thank you. Amen.

Kindly pray for Daranee Thepthong. The cancer has spread to her brain. She is now in an ICU room. May God show mercy. She is presently laying in bed following the first round of therapy but is still unable to move. May God work a miracle and restore her to her regular life. We commit all of her anguish to Christ, trusting that He would give us lasting hope. Amen.

For Diana and for me, for our families, neighbors, health, prayer, and faith. Specially for Diana, Lidia, Sergio, Amalia, Ariel, and for me, for our healing. For Diana, to find a good job. For me, to find a good job. So that Diana can return and be allowed to return to Buenos Aires soon and without problems. For Venezuela, and for my country Argentina.
