Please pray for Daranee Teapthong. She has cancer that has spread to her brain. After the first round of therapy, she is now bedridden but still moves about. May God work a miracle and restore her to her normal life. We give up all of her sorrow to Christ, confident that the Lord would provide enduring hope. Amen.

Kindly please pray the all gracious Lord also graces me a healing of my hellish schizophrenia illness, suffered for near 18 years, as he has healed some who have suffered the same for 12 years, as it increasingly becomes unbearable.

I humbly ask for prayers for my 29 year old son to receive an undeniable sign regarding God’s will BEFORE getting married in February 2027. And for his strength to be obedient to God’s most Holy and perfect will in God’s timing. And also for my son to seek wise counsel from priests and trusted men BEFORE getting married. For peace in my family of 2 and that we stay intact. All for the Glory of God. THANK YOU!
