Prayer Request

One month from today, on September 13th, Scribe will be having surgery to correct a condition that is causing his ribs to press in on his heart.  He is expected to be in the hospital for a week, and the doctor is telling us Scribe will be in a lot of pain the first month after the surgery, requiring strong pain meds.  He'll be able to start exercising, etc. about 3 months after the surgery.

We humbly ask you to pray for the following:

~skill and wisdom for the surgeon

~no need for strong pain meds for that whole first month

~no complications or infections from the surgery

~that God would be glorified and we would be a witness for Christ

~that all of us would grow deeper in our love for the LORD through this

~for wisdom for me as I continue to homeschool, love on a brand new baby and all of our other blessings, and take care of our home

~peace and calm for Scribe and a very real knowledge of the presence of the LORD with him

Thank you for loving us through your prayers!

  1. You know I will be in prayer for
    Scribe and his surgery. I know
    the surgery doesn't just affect
    Scribe, but the entire family. As
    any mom would say, we would rather go through the pain than for our
    children to experience it.Love
    and prayers will be sent to you,
    Scribe. Memaw loves you so very
    much.
    HUGS,
