Make this your common practice: Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you can live together whole and healed. The prayer of a person living right with God is something powerful to be reckoned with. (James 5:16)

Here is the current list of people needing our Heavenly Father's help ... most remain anonymous but our GOD knows who they are: NB - I'm trying my best to get you regular prayer updates, so PLEASE keep up the good fight for them in prayer ...

Shad - (UPDATE) The 'urgent' situation was resolved when the catheter was changed. Shad's being rushed to the hospital today (03/08/23) from the care home because he's not passing urine and there is blood in it! NB - it's now well over two years since he first went into the hospital where the MSA was diagnosed. He's finding communication increasingly difficult, with both speaking or operating the comms board. He's also now struggling with his iPad & even the TV remote. But he's still trying to stay positive & as cheerful as he can, & looks forward to his occasional taste of ice cream (the only food he's allowed). The highlight of his day is always the visit from his wife, Joy, and sometimes their dog or a friend. As far as I can tell, they are still not saved but are increasingly open to the love & prayer, & comments from believers about Jesus... Peace, salvation and healing, please ...

My wife Tracey - her knee has really started playing up again today (03/08/23), leaving her with much pain and unable to walk or sleep - it's horribly swollen to twice its normal size, and her physio has put her forward for urgent treatment at the hospital ... Peace and healing, please ...

My friend Joy - (UPDATE 30/08/23) I must share with you my wonderful news !! The oncologist today said that after looking again at everything in my case, and due to the genetic element of my cancer the benefit of chemo is very small and the detrimental effect on my body so great, they suggest ongoing close surveillance instead. So no more chemo !!!! It’s such an amazing relief, to be able to move on without months of suffering. And the picc line was taken out of my arm!! Freedom !! I feel truly grateful and blessed 🙏 ❤️ ... Peace, and continued healing please ...

My friend Julian - He's been having really bad sleepless nights through severe back pains for many weeks, and this is obviously affecting his day-to-day work and general life. Peace and healing, please ...

My friend Enrica in Italy - Has asked for prayer for her father in law who has pneumonia. Peace, salvation and healing, please ...

There's an urgent prayer request from Pyles N Ward - I humbly ask you for your prayers. My mom, Sandra Pyles, suddenly (in the past few weeks) lost her ability to talk coherently. My sisters took her to the ER and CT scan found a 3cm tumor in her brain that is cancerous. We met with the neurosurgeon who is optimistic about her getting better/recovery so she is going to do brain surgery on my mom today (10 July), hopefully this will help her regain her speech and be able to treat the cancer. To be honest, I'm in shock… this has happened so quickly. I love my dear mom so very, very much. I appreciate your prayers... Peace, salvation and healing, please ...

My friend Audrey - (UPDATE) Audrey's mother Ethel passed on to be with the Lord yesterday (5 Sept). Can we please pray that her husband Bill will now open his heart to receive GOD's Peace in this trying time through a personal union with the Living GOD ... Peace, salvation and healing, please ...

We have an urgent prayer request from the beautiful Gypsy community: Can u all plz pray for little boy called Denice Ward he had an accident at Appleby today he’s had to be airlifted to the hospital... Peace, salvation and healing, please ...

My friend Tina - A message regarding her brother in law Robin. He needs a miracle as his heart is very irregular and it carries a high risk of clots. Please pray that God will restore his heart to beat normally . Thank you 🙏 Thank you so much. Xxx from Tina. ... Peace, and continued healing please ...

My friend Viv - she's developed a really nasty arthritis/carpal tunnel syndrome which has flared up in both wrists at the same time, and as she's an artist this isn't amazingly helpful. Unfortunately, it's NHS protocol to wear splints for 6 weeks before even being referred to the hand specialist! It's all a bit painful and frustrating, so prayers for peace and patience would be good, and that God willing, her hands will be totally healed. Thank you xx

Young Lydia - Just been advised the following update (20/05/23) Lydia is now at her new hospital in Ealing. We thank God that she has settled in well and is making friends. There is lots to do, and all the staff seem lovely. Please pray that she responds well to the treatment which is difficult at times. Although visiting is restricted, we are allowed to book in for visits. She is allowed to receive post, so if anyone enjoys letter writing, it would be a lovely surprise for her to receive something from her church family. The address is 22 Corfton Road, Ealing, W5 2HT. NB - For those who want to know more about how she’s coping, and what to pray into, she’s actually pouring out her life thoughts on Instagram under the title: stoma_life_lydia

E - Just had a further EXCELLENT update on a very special young girl who has very recently lost her mum to cancer, has already overcome cancer already in her young life, and is now facing that battle again being diagnosed with terminal cancer! Her tumors have shrunk so that she can continue chemo to extend her life. She's still coming to school ad hoc. She is an absolute fighter but desperately needs every prayer possible. Peace, salvation and healing please ...

My friend Siegfried in Germany - he's asking for help. He's had to leave his wife and son back in England to help with his Mother Irmgard who at 80 has just lost her husband and is now suffering from Parkinsons. Lord, please help her to receive your Peace, Salvation and eternal Healing in your Presence ...
