Kairos Outside Announcement

Posted on by Brandee Terry

Just a reminder that the Kairos Outside Finger Lakes weekend is this weekend.  We are having what is called a “Walk of Love” on Sat. evening at 9 ish.  This is when the community comes to the church and will stand along the walk with candles and sing to the guests.  They don’t know you are there and will be coming from a Forgiveness Service.  It would be so wonderful if there was a big turn out for these women.

Also, we have reserved 15 roll-a-way beds from the place in Elmira that we used to get them from.   We already have one truck that can bring some, but not all.  If there is anyone in the downstate area that can pick up some beds on Friday during the day and deliver them to Geneva, it would be greatly appreciated.  They have to be taken back on Monday.  We would have to remove them from the church on Sunday morning also.

The closing is at 2:30 on Sunday, so whoever can help can come early and load the beds and stay for the closing.  I know it’s asking a lot, but we really need the beds and hope the community can help.  Our only other alternative is renting a Uhaul, but would rather not spend that money.

Please contact me directly if you can help with the beds.

God Bless you all,

Prayer & Praise

My sister has been diagnosed with Stage 1 Uterine Cancer please pray for her and for the surgeon who is reviewing her case.  She is going to see the surgeon on 4/27/11.  She has been more like a mother to me and has taken care of my kids since they were babies.  All prayers are appreciated.

Love in Christ.

Please pray for my daughter-in-law’s father. He is in ICU @ Hospital with double pnuemonia and MRSA. The dr. said today that he is not improving and can only survive on life support. The family from out of state is on their way here. Please pray most especially for our daughter-in-law and her brother. Their Mom just passed away two months ago and they are really hurting. Pray please that they will experience the loving presence of our God through this most difficult time in their lives.

Thank-you all so much.

Asking for prayers for friends. She fell recently and broke her hip. They did surgery and later moved to a rehab center. Almost 3 weeks since surgery and not doing well. After testing found that she has Osteoperosis and hip not doing well. Needs to have surgery again. She went for scheduled surgery yesterday. Found she has a very bad infection in the area. Orthopedic Surgeon took her in to cut out and remove infected area. Now has to wait until healed. Dr will then see if can repair the hip surgery or need to do total hip replacement. We pray for comfort and healing of the infection and that God will strengthen her for surgery to follow. Prayers also for her husband as is very worried about the whole situation.

Please pray for my sister, who had a ruptured brain aneurysm a week ago.  She is in  a Virginia hospital. So far prayer has been powerful, but she is not in the clear yet.  There is a chance of another vasospasm which causes a stroke.  So please pray with me for my sister and best friend, also for her husband, and their children and grandchildren.

Thank you.
