Prayer Requests (Updates Below)
UPDATED PRAYER LIST | |
Attention: Prayer warriors, both new and seasoned - an opportunity to join family in Christ throughout the world in a weekly time of 24 hours of prayer (and fasting if you are so led). In addition to our usual prayers for each other, here are some updated specific prayer requests: | |
New prayer requests are often added to the list under the person who has passed on the request, as this makes it easier to find when updates are given. New prayer requests (and new answers to prayer) will be highlighted for the first week, to assist those who are led to focus on new requests. | |
Sometimes due to juggling ‘life’ we may miss adding a prayer request/update/answer to this list, if this occurs… please let us know. | |

Ali’s daughter Jenny: cancer surgery. Update. the doctors are running tests on the intestines and lymph nodes that were removed from Jenny. If the lymph nodes show they are cancerous, Jenny will need to go back onto chemotherapy treatments. We are supposed to find out in 4-5 days. More prayers, please, and thank you. Looks like Jenny will be undergoing more tests in 3-4 weeks. They're giving her body time to heal from the surgery (2 of the 17 lymph nodes came up cancerous). Their pretty sure that area was cut out extensively | They just brought my daughter Jenny into the recovery room. The Doctor said it went very well. Praise the Lord. Thank you all for your prayers. If everything continues to go well she will have one more surgery in two or three months. 1/2/24 Jenny is feeling much better. She is only drinking liquids such as juice and clear soup, so they are unsure what caused a slight blockage in the colostomy bag, but all is going well once again. Thank you to my dear family for all the prayers. |
but the future scans will confirm this. What ever the next steps are, we are trusting in our wonderful God and Father to hold her closely and bring comfort to her heart.

Also, if everything goes as hoped...the colostomy reversal surgery is the next step. Scheduled for April or May. Hi everyone, Please continue to pray for my daughter, Jenny. April 8th is her ostomy reversal surgery and the doctors will, at the same time repair a herniated intestinal wall which just happened yesterday. Thank you for continuing in prayer for her. I hold you all close to my heart. | 21/2/24 Ali: Update on my daughter, Jenny. The many lumps found on my daughter's liver were ruled out being tumors.. Doctor said they are cysts yet will continue to keep on eye on them. Right now they said she is NED=no evidence of disease. Praise God for his healing hand upon her. I am beyond grateful to Him and to all of you for your love and prayers. She will continue to get blood tests every other month to make sure cancer cells do not appear. This they will do for 2 years. Thank you my dear family for all the texts, prayers, concerns and love. Re ostomy reversal surgery: Jenny just got out of surgery, and the doctor said everything went perfectly. Thank you, thank you for the prayers. Praises to our awesome God and Father. |

Mely’s niece Emely Joy: health | The test result came back, it’s not a tumour after all. It’s more on FISTULA FROM THE BLADDER TO THE ABDOMINAL. I am so relieved. Praise God for healing mercies. Now home recuperating. Her operation was successful. Recovering nicely from her operation. Sending her heartfelt gratitude to our group that took their time to invoke the LORD on her behalf.

Grateful to our group for the many prayers during those difficult times. |
Mely’s sister in law Elsie: not doing good, Platelet and Hemoglobin dropping …. | Good news regarding my sister in law Elsie Bascao, ( Acute Leukaemia ) her doctor reported that there is no more trace of cancer in her system ( first report was 70% cancer all over her body) I asked my niece to put her mom on BARLEY GREEN SUPPLEMENTS. She is still in the hospital. I saw a video of her, sitting, eating, laughing … She told me, we ( her and I) still have a lot of work to do in our community! She is an Adventist too. Mely: My sister in law Elsie is doing fine. She is still in the hospital but getting stronger by the day! Praise GOD in whom all blessings flow.! |
Update on my sister-in-law's condition: her hospital bills have skyrocketed up to PHP 390,000 due to the prolonged stay in the hospital and medical procedures. However, we received financial assistance from two Congressmen in the province who each provided PHP 250,000, totaling PHP 500,000 which greatly helped in covering all of the expenses. Furthermore, our Father above has graciously provided for us once again with an extra supply of 'BARLEY GREEN SUPPLEMENT'. This natural supplement contains vitamins and minerals that are essential for blood health and platelet production. Praise God for His healing mercies as my sister-in-law is now recuperating at home and producing platelets on its own. PRAISE GOD for healing mercies My sister in law is doing really well by the grace of God. Cancer free to this day PRAISE THE LORD. PRAISES AND THANKSGIVING My sister in law Elsie is getting stronger by the day. Thanking everyone for lifting her up in prayers and requesting that her name will stay on our list. | |

(John’s wife Darlene: had a stroke (1/1/24) still in hospital. Darlene has had another stroke (12/1) Bowel obstruction surgery - hernia with her small intestine protruding thru it.

White blood count has dropped from 22 to 14.6 (normal 4-12) She turns her head, eyes are open at times, she has been making sounds and said “hi” . CT of abdominal surgery is showing as normal. She has given us a little smile. Still a long way to go. We praise our heavenly Father and His Son. (31/1) Sorry I don't have the best news to report. Darlene is back in the ICU and back on the ventilator. She wasn't very responsive yesterday evening and this morning. They believe she may have had additional strokes. They will do a CT scan shortly to check for that. I will keep you posted once we have the results. She has some bleeding in her bowels but the doctor said they are in a tough spot because they believe the meds she's on may be contributing to that bleeding. But if they stop the meds, she could potentially have additional strokes. They have her sedated so she is sleeping soundly right now. Please continue to pray. We know nothing is impossible for our Heavenly Father. We pray and trust her care to Him, He knows best and we will praise him come what may. ) | Praise our heavenly Father and His dear Son, we just got word that Darlene is going to rehab. Getting out of this hospital tonight. Update - Darlene has been moved to a convalescent hospital for her rehab. Hopefully she will be back home in a few weeks. Praise to the Lord all was successful and small intestine is going to be in good shape. We are so happy our tears of pain are being turned to tears of joy (that only God can give) Hallelujah we want to shout and sing His praises. Warriors we are not out of the woods yet but let’s just see what God will do. There is work to be done and a great harvest of his people that he loves so dearly. ● |

Pastor Naik was arrested in Asia (approx mid Feb) He was charged with preaching without a permit. Twice he has been refused bail. Possible next bail hearing 5/3/24. Another pastor is also still being held without bail, though other pastors were released. Please pray that they will be released and also lift their families up in prayer. It has been requested that there is no mention of this on FB etc, as it could impact negatively on this situation. Still waiting to hear the result of the judge’s decision from the hearing on 5th March |
Prayer update from Naik's wife: The hearing did not take place today because of the papers from the police station or because of the lawyers' strike yesterday, it was postponed to Monday.

Please pray for those who persecute us The judge refused to let Naik out of jail. So they are filling a bail petition in the high court. We now understand that Naik is diabetic, has not been allowed access to medication, and is now physically weak. He and another pastor have been moved to a separate cell so that they can’t preach to the other prisoners. Latest from Naik's wife: Three pastors got the bail but my husband didn't get the bail please pray for him so he could get the bill They didn't gave bail because my husband is from another state please pray for him. Naik is still in prison. The court is prolonging the case. So nothing really changed. Praise the Lord brothers and sisters. Today my husband will call. I will tell about you. Let me tell you that all of you are praying. Lawyer will file a bail petition in the first week of May. They say that the bail will come till the second week. Brother, please pray for this.

Some encouraging quotes: "The true fasting which should be recommended to all, is abstinence from every stimulating kind of food, and the proper use of wholesome, simple food, which God has provided in abundance. Men need to think less about what they shall eat and drink of temporal food, and much more in regard to the food from heaven, that will give tone and vitality to the whole religious experience. " Letter 73, 1896 & MM 283 • 🪷 "Now and onward till the close of time the people of God should be more earnest, more wide awake, not trusting in their own wisdom, but in the wisdom of their Leader. They should set aside days for fasting and prayer. Entire abstinence from food may not be required, but they should eat sparingly of the most simple food. R&H, Feb 11, 1904 • "The spirit of true fasting and prayer is the spirit which yields mind, heart, and will to God." MS 28,1900 |
