Fairfax Circle Baptist Church

Please pray as the first DR team heads out today. Their first flight has been delayed, so please pray that the rest of trip goes smoothly and they are able to make their connection. Pray for strength as they prepare to serve!

As inspired by the Spirit of the God, we are in the process of planting a Baptist Church in Muscat, Sultanate of Oman.
It is not so easy to plant a Church here unlike some Gulf Countries. Therefore, we kindly request you and the Congregation
in Fairfax remember in your Prayers for its establishment alone to serve our Living Lord among this nation.

My former coworker Joel Rubin passed away abruptly this past Saturday evening. Joel had a stomach ache for about a week and went in to the doctor this past Wednesday 6 Feb to get it checked out. The doctor performed some tests and it was determined that he had stage 4 terminal and untreatable stomach cancer and he was given a prognosis of 2-3 months, but he ended up passing away unexpectedly 3 days later. His wife Judy has had health issues for quite some time and Joel has been her primary caregiver. I'm asking for prayer for Judy, their son Allan and their daughter Jamie. His service is tomorrow at 3:30pm.

Please pray for Bob and Carolyn Stilling's infant granddaughter Alex. She recently went home after being hospitalized but
had a setback and is back in the hospital.

This is a follow up to my earlier posting about my friend with an aggressive form of breast cancer. She is scheduled for surgery on Monday. She is very anxious and is scared that she won't live to see her 2 year old and newborn grow up. Please pray for her healing and for her peace. Thank you.

Please pray for Pat Bloom and Judy Schrader and their family in the passing of their mother today.

Please pray for a friend of mine who just discovered that she has an aggressive form of breast cancer. She discovered something odd during the last few weeks of pregnancy and now her son is a month old and they have determined that it is a form that doesn't respond to the traditional medicines. I don't know when she starts treatment, but I think it is soon since it is so aggressive. Thank you.

Last month you prayed for Natalee as she went through surgery to fix her broken elbow. Please join me in praising God for healing her. Please pray for her as she has her pins out tomorrow and her cast off! Thanks!

Please pray for my friend Bob. He awoke Sunday morning with poor vision and has since learned he has a
Detached retina. He has surgery on Friday. He is asking for prayer! Thank you

ALL,
Thank you for your prayers! Larry is home and on the mend. PRAISE the Lord!

Thank You for your prayers! Larry has had surgery and the bleeding has stopped. Had a scare this morning when his heart stopped briefly. This evening he was doing much better. His son is sick and his wife as well. Glad I'm able to be here to help out. See you Christmas Eve.

My brother Larry continues to bleed. They are taking him to surgery now. It is a very risking procedure.
I have a flight leaving DC at 3pm. Ben will stay here with his dad. Please continue to pray for his healing.
Thank you!

Please pray for my brother Larry in Tampa FL.
He was taken to the hospital yesterday after passing out at work.
He has a bleeding ulcer they have not been able to control. He has gotten 10 units of blood and is in ICU.
I pray that they are able to stop the bleeding and he begins to heal. He, his wife and two children have strong faith.
Thank you!

Please continue to pray for Skyler and Natalie. Natalie's surgery went well on her elbow. She has three pins in it and is in a lot of pain. Please continue to pray for healing for both girls.

Please continue to pray for Brenda Ureke. Her hip surgery went very well, and she hopes to be home on Wednesday. Please continue to pray for healing for her as well.

Please pray for the Ballard Family. Natalee fell of the monkey bars and is having surgery this evening on her elbow. Skyler is sick with an upper respiratory illness that will require her to be hospitalized if improvement does not come very soon. Please pray for healing for kids and strength for adults.

Please pray for my friend, Marta. Our dog Bandit bit her very badly in the face, her face is healing wonderfully, thanks be to our God but Marta is suffering bad nightmares and having trouble sleeping. She wakes up screaming and see Bandit's face coming at her. Pray that her skin continues to heal and ask for God to wash away the bad memory. He bit her for no reason, I put him to sleep the next day as Animal Control told me the Spaniel breed has a reputation of doing this. Also
Please pray for my upcoming surgery this Monday Dec 3rd when I will have my other hip replaced. The first recover was blessed and the left leg is so strong that I am looking forward to the strength coming back to my right side. Pray that God will grant me the same wonderful recovery and strength He gave me before. Thank you for your prayers, bren

Please pray for the Bushey's daughter, Debbie who has a job interview tomorrow. She needs this job due to a
recent separation.

Please pray for my nephew's son, Trent Crawford (age 27). Trent fell out of a tree on October 16th and broke his back. He now has two steel rods in place along his spine and is in rehab in The Shepard Center in Atlanta, GA. He was making a remarkable recovery until an infection set in around the rods. Last week, a second surgery was performed to clean that up, and Trent is scheduled for another surgery tomorrow (Monday). Please pray for tomorrow's surgery to go well and for Trent's recovery. Pray that his spirits will stay high through the long rehabilitation ordeal he is facing, and that his doctors will continue to provide him excellent care. Pray for strength and patience for his girlfriend, Paige, and his parents, Terry and Tonya. For more details, a webpage has been set up at www.trentoncrawford.com. Thank you.

Please pray for Ellie Bechtle's mom, Sue as she has an operation Friday morning on her vocal chords. Currently the chords are allowing water into her lungs that should not be there. Pray for Ellie as she ministers to her mom during all of this.

Please pray for Carolyn O'Dell's family. Carolyn passed away this evening (11/8) after complications from lung cancer.
Please pray for her kids, Shannon, Matthew, and Ryan and her extended family.
