Praises

Continue to pray for the CrossBridge friends expecting a little one: Chad and Cristy Burris. They found out they are having a baby girl due in May! Praise God! The Sabens asked that we would add to our expectant parent’s list for prayers: Brad and Ann Schroeder, the Sabens’ son and daughter-in-law!

Ky Vinsant was released from the hospital after his hip replacement surgery. Please pray for full healing.

Amber Christie has been released from the Hospital. No cancer was found in her lymph nodes. There were some malignant masses and polyps that were removed during her surgery. She may not need chemo treatment going forward so this is the best news they could have received. Praise God! Thank you for your prayers for her and keep lifting her up to the Lord praying that she is cancer free.

Randy Greene writes, “Mother received good report from Dr's. She finished treatments a couple of weeks ago, had MRI this week and spots that were found four weeks ago on brain have not changed. Possibly scar tissue from surgery. She is doing well and will go back in six weeks for scan and checkup. Praise God! Thank you guys and Crossbridge for prayers.”

John David and Andrew are both feeling better. Thank you so much for your prayers for them.

All are safe.”

Evan Bates writes, “Carol Lord, Rebekah and Samuel's elementary principal and formerly my first grade teacher, was struck by a car leaving her son's wedding over the weekend. She is in a coma at UAB. They have counselors at the school but obviously hundreds of children as well as her family are grieving and worried right now.

The Sabens’ ask that you keep praying for baby Alexis (she will be a year old Feb. 6th) as she is still struggling with several health issues and at this point is in the hospital in Atlanta, for grandson Michael Schroeder, 17 months, that he would eat more and gain weight and that my brother Harold, that has multiply myeloma, would have less pain and peace for however long the Lord lets him live. For my brother Wyndal that will have surgery soon to remove two hernias. That Duane’s Parkinson’s would be healed. We continue to be so thankful for the prayers of CrossBridge, of our LifeWalk group and my Tuesday morning ladies Bible study group. We are so blessed to have so many caring people. God bless each of you. Sue and Duane

Karen Miles writes, “I have a special prayer request. Heaven is rejoicing tonight as they welcome a sweet dear friend of mine, Adryne Davis. She was a beautiful wife, mother, friend and teacher. She has been battling cancer the past year. She taught me so much as she handled her journey with such grace. Her and her husband had a beautiful relationship as he was her rock throughout her sickness. Please pray for her husband Russ, her children, Jared, Tess and Colton, her friends and all the children lucky enough to call Mrs. Davis their teacher. She will be missed by so many in our Hoover community.”
