Peayer Request 11/4

Please add Loretta Nabors to your prayers. She was admitted to the hospital last night and is still in there waiting on Dr Singh to come look at her my toe & hopefully drain it again.
She says ... "They did do x-rays and said there's no bone infection. The IV antibiotics are working, my WBC is coming down.   I'm pretty sure with my history of staph/MRSA that he will keep me another night & continue the antibiotics to be on the safe side."

Prayers!!! 11/3

Urgent prayer request...Paul McClain’s heart went into afib and he is back at the Hospital. (Also His kidneys  are still not functioning)

Are you a medical provider?

With the medical emergency we experienced during morning worship last week we identified the need to have all of our medical personnel more organized. We need to know who is trained, ready, and able to help if and when something like that happens again...Anyone who is a nurse, EMT, paramedic, or other medical provider is asked to meet very briefly with Jay Cannon following morning worship Sunday. We will just identify who’s who and show everyone where all of our emergency medical supplies are kept. Please plan to stay around a bit for this meeting Sunday! And thanks for being willing to yours your gift and skills whenever necessary!

Update on Paul McClain - 11/2

Paul McClain is in rehab in Dallas and will continue there until the 21st of this month.
Please keep him and the family in your prayers, as he continues to heal.
