ROBERTS FAMILY

Thank you for all of your prayers.  If you have a prayer request you would like to submit, you can click here or send an e-mail to robertstereen@comcast.net , or we have a link on the home page for your convenience.  Please include as much or as little information as you feel necessary, and remember, the Lord knows all. 

The group just got back from singing at a couple of nursing homes and we'd like to ask all of you to pray for these people.  There are so many people in nursing homes everywhere that need our prayers.  As we were getting ready to leave, a woman named Helen took my hand and didn't want me to leave.  I told her I'd pray for her and she said she'd pray for me.  When you pray, please remember these people and say a prayer for them. 

Tereen

I am Charlotte Rice Cartwright...Brad's cousin.  Anyway, my husband has a tumor on his pituitary gland pressing against his brain.  He is having an MRI this morning and then we will know what the Doctors are going to do.  They think it is rather large because he is having dizziness, nausea and has no peripheral vision.  His face is even changing shape.

I would like to request prayers for me and my family.  We are praying as well.  Mom (Dorothy Rice) says all will be well and thank God for her!  I have been so blessed with the family I have and I would like prayers for all of them, too, for being so uplifting and positive!

Please pray for Gabby Rebber.  Gabby is 13 years old.  She was born with leukemia and club feet.  Gabby had a series of chemotherapy treatments that she endured during the first six months of her life.   After those treatments were finished, she also had to have multiple surgeries on her club feet.  Those surgeries seemed to help Gabby for the next few years, but as she grew bigger and had to apply more pressure on her feet, she began to have more problems.  This summer, Gabby and her family will have to travel to Philadelphia, PA, so that a specialist there can begin to perform a total of 4 more surgeries on her feet.  The expenses for these trips are more than the family can handle.  Please ask the Lord to help Gabby with her feet.  Ask Him to guide the doctors as they work on this young girl.  Also, please ask for help with the family finances.

Please pray for Tina and her family.  There has been a disagreement in Tina's family that has caused a separation.  Please ask the Lord to soften the hearts of all involved and to bring this family back together.

Please pray for Dave and Melinda Lemarr.  Dave is disabled because of his back and is in constant pain.  He can't get out except to go to the doctor and is getting very discouraged.  Please ask the Lord to lift Dave up in spirit and to ease his pain.  Please ask for strength for Melinda as she is working hard to support the family.

Please pray for Carol and her family.  Carol's nephew passed away today and the family needs our prayers.  Please ask the Lord to help this family in their time of loss.

Please pray for Brad's mom who continues to have serious health problems.  The doctors may not be able to help Carrie, but I know my Lord can.  Please ask the Lord to touch Carrie and relieve her suffering.

Please continue to pray for Brenda for the help she needs.  Please ask the Lord to give her comfort that only He can.

Please pray for Leona Anderson's daughter, Kathy, who was seriously injured in a car accident.  Please ask the Lord to guide the doctors as they try to find out what is wrong with Kathy.  Please ask the Lord to help Kathy with the problems that she is having with her lungs and all of her health issues.  Please ask the Lord to comfort the family as they stay by Kathy's side.  Please pray for financial help for this family as they are traveling over an hour each way to visit this loved one in need.  Please ask the Lord to help with Kathy's medical expenses as she has no health insurance.

Please pray for Debbie Hamilton who was very seriously injured in an accident at work. 

My grandmother, Betty Brandenburg, was diagosed with ovarian and possibly peritoneal cancer. She recently went through a cardiac stress test to ensure that her heart was able to withstand a 3-5 hour surgery. Unfortunately, she wasn't cleared for surgery due to her test results. I believe that the Lord will watch over her and see that she is needed greatly to those that love her dearly. Please put in a request for us. I know the Lord is great and powerful, please ask him to take the cancer out of my grandma, she has always followed the Lord and encouraged all of us to do the same. We are putting our faith in the Lord and I hope he feels that she still needs time to touch people with her loving , caring heart.

Thank You So Much,

Kelly Grayson

We received the following prayer request.  The Lord knows all things.  He knows who these people are and just what they need.  Please pray for these people that they be able to overcome the hurt and put it behind them. 

Please pray for E/M. There's tremendous bitterness and resentment in M towards E for a careless but well-meant thing he did. Sorry about just letters for names (even the letters are pseudo), and God can figure it out I'm sure.

Please continue to pray for Shaun Brown and his family.  Shaun's 1-year old daughter, Bayon, has a fast-growning kind of brain cancer and was supposed to start chemotherapy last week.  The doctors said they can't give her the chemo treatments because it will kill her kidneys which in turn will kill her.  Without the chemo, the cancer will kill her quickly.  She has taken a turn for the worse and this family needs all of our prayers.  Please keep them in your prayers for healing and comfort. 

We have a friend that has a son in U of L Hosp. He is in very critical condition. They are going to have to amputate his legs.  Please pray for God to touch him Thanks

We received the following request from a sister in the Lord:

I have some prayer request, that I would like you all to pray for, I've prayed for years for a couple of them, I pray one day God will answer, I also know, No is an answer.  I want to remain anonymous, God knows what they are.  I appreciate your prayers.

Let's pray that God gives this sister the answer that He knows is best for each request that she has before Him.

Tereen's great-nephew, Ryan, broke his arm at school yesterday (3/26) and will be seeing a specialist this morning (3/27) at 10:20.  Because it's right around the right elbow socket, he may need surgery to put in a pin or plate.  Please keep Ryan in your prayers and ask the Lord to heal this break completely.

Good news!  No surgery will be needed.  Just please pray for a full and speedy recovery for Ryan.

Please pray for Shaun Brown’s 1-year old daughter.  This little girl has had a lot of problems since birth.  She had problems with seizures and was taken to an Atlanta hospital where they worked with her and while we aren’t sure what they diagnosed her with or what they did they were able to get the seizures under control.  She was doing better until Thursday night (3/20) when she quit crawling and the only thing she could do was cry.  She was taken to Seymour hospital and they found fluid around her brain.  She was then transferred (either Riley Children’s Hospital in Indianapolis or Kosair Children’s Hospital in Louisville, not sure which) where they did an MRI and found a brain tumor.  They put a shunt in, but this tumor is a fast growing kind and had already grown into the stem of the brain.  They took her into surgery yesterday (3/24) for about 15 ½ hours and said the tumor is malignant.  They were able to remove about 95% of the tumor but couldn’t get it all.   They said this child will need chemotherapy.   Please pray for the Lord to move for this child and heal her of this cancer.  Please pray for the family as they are also suffering right now.  We would also appreciate your sharing this request with everyone who prays.  We appreciate all of your prayers.

Please pray for Taylor as she is facing a very difficult decision in her life.  Please ask the Lord to guide her through this and help her to make the right decision.  Please ask Him to bring her comfort in a difficult time.

Please pray for Carol and ask the Lord to add to her household as He sees fit.

Please pray for Bobbie and her household.  Bobbie and her husband have taken on the task of bringing up their four grandchildren and they need the Lord to help make this transition easy for all involved.

Please pray for John Fisher who lost the sight in his right eye over the weekend.  The doctors don't know what caused this or if it will come back or not.  Please pray for the Lord to touch John's blind eye and allow him to see again.

Tereen has a special unspoken request before the Lord that she'd like for you to pray about.  I once heard a man say he didn't pray for unspoken requests because he didn't know what he was asking for.  I can understand that and ask that you pray that the Lord's will be done in this request.  I'm not asking for myself, but for others in need. 

There is a very dear sister in the Lord that we'd like you to pray for her and her family.  This woman has a husband, a brother, a daughter and two sons-in-law that need the Lord in their life.  Please pray that the Lord come to these family members and help them with all their needs. The Lord knows who they are and what they each need.  Please ask the Lord to keep his hand on this sister and give her peace of mind in all that she must go through.  Please ask that His will be done.

My name is Gary Hogan. Some of you receiving this know me, some do not. My wife, Cindy, is 32 years old and has just been diagnosed 3 days ago with stage 4 cervical cancer and her chances for survival are very slim.   She was pregnant with our second child and had miscarried recently at 3 months, and now we know why.  This is a request for you to forward this e-mail to everyone you know asking for prayer.  The more  people that pray for her to be healed, the better. 
 
Pray and forward. It only takes a second to hit "forward".  Please pray and ask everyone you know to pray for the HEALING of Cindy and the removal of all cancer in her body, so she may enjoy all that life has to offer, and to continue to be the wonderful mother to our 5 year old son, Michael.  The power of Prayer is unsurpassed.   ; ; I want the whole world to have her in their prayers the next few weeks.   God will hear our cry.  Please do not be offended by my plea..  This is only a request for your help. 
 
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading this and helping with our request for healing!   No words can express the power we have when we each do a little to come together.

God Bless You!

We went to a nursing home tonight and performed for the patients there, and these people really need our prayers.  Most of these people are in pretty bad physical condition or they wouldn't be there.  They have such difficulties performing even the simplest task.  Some of these people asked for prayer and we did pray with them, but they need to be remembered daily.  So many of them don't have family nearby to come and visit them and they get very lonely.  We need to remember these children of God and keep them in our prayers.
