Prayer Requests
· Please continue to remember Mae Aungst and her family as they grieve the sudden passing of Lenny. Thank you for your prayers for Mem, she still needs them. With the help of medication she is resting much of the time, but she is still grieving deeply, and will be for a long time.
· Keep Blake Aldinger (Katie & Stephen Aldinger’s son) in your prayers today and tomorrow. He is being admitted to the Children’ Hospital of Philadelphia today for an NG cleanout, and tomorrow he is scheduled for testing all day, for which he will be put to sleep all day. The doctors say by the end of the day they will have a diagnosis and treatment plan for him.
