Update on urgent health concern

Update from Martha, ReachGlobal staff in Costa Rica, with the MRI results that she has reviewed with a surgeon. “The good news is I have a fairly small lump on the right side that seems to be in an early stage. However it is an invasive cancer, and we will not know if it has spread until the surgeon removes some lymph nodes at the time of the operation to remove the cancer. Another new development is that the MRI shows a suspicious spot on my left side, so I have a biopsy for that scheduled for Tuesday, June 29. Please pray for decisions we need to make on the surgery and plans for treatment.”

Sharing the Gospel

Pray for Todd, ReachGlobal staff in the United Kingdom, who is meeting right now with a man who believes Islam is the true religion. Please pray for God’s guidance in this new relationship. Todd believes he likes to inquire of Christians about their faith in order to build strength in his own. Pray that this will be the beginning of a stronger relationship/friendship, that will lead to his leaving his current beliefs and growing in love with Jesus as the truth of his life.

Men's Gathering in CAC

Pray for the Muslim/Christian men’s gatherings in a creative access city where ReachGlobal staff minister. The Lord has provided Christian speakers for all the meetings planned into January. Pray for the gathering of almost two dozen men on June 28, as they discuss the topic of “Principles of Friendship and Neighborhood Responsibility.” Please pray for the Christian speaker as he delivers his presentation, for Muslim men to come with open hearts, for good conversations about the Lord, and for ongoing relationships with a purpose.

Update on Shiloh

Shiloh came home yesterday afternoon with a temporary immobilizing cast up to her shoulder. She is on pain killers that causes slurred speech and constant drowsiness. Pray for Sarah, David and Shiloh as they meet with a pediatric plastic surgeon today. The doctors are saying that it may be up to a year before the full extent of the recovery is known. Pray for God’s healing and complete restoration of Shiloh’s hand.


“I have been sharing the dozens of notes and phone calls from EFCA colleagues with my daughter, Sarah. Thanks so much to all of you for praying and taking the time to write and call.”—Denny
