Macey Chupp – An Update from Parents Maren and Jeremy: Macey, a varsity volleyball player, began experiencing seizures, tremors, and other symptoms over the summer following a knee injury and surgery, and was diagnosed with Functional Neurological Disorder (FND).
Maren shares this update: “We feel so loved and humbled by all of you! Thank you for praying for Macey, writing cards (we loved every one!), and caring for us so well. Macey has completed her in-person brain rehabilitation and will continue treatment with at-home brain rehab and a neuro physical therapist. She is now having many more good days (including some seizure-free days!), and we are patiently waiting for God to heal her fully as she does all the doctors tell her to do. Thank you for kneeling with us! Grateful for our tribe!”
Judy Sampley: Judy had gallbladder surgery this past Tuesday and came home Thursday afternoon. She is doing great! Rick and Judy are thankful for everyone who has been praying and ask for continued prayers for her full recovery and healing.
Kathy Brooks – Under Hospice Care at Home: Kathy is at home under hospice care, having decided to forgo further treatment. Kathy and Ed are grateful for their wonderful hospice team and for the love shown through visits and calls. Please pray for these beloved saints and their family, asking God to surround them with His peace, comfort, strength, and grace.
Ashley Wyatt: Praise the Lord! Ashley completed her radiation treatments recently. Ashley and Rocky are deeply grateful for the prayers, encouragement, and support they have received from their Grace Chapel family. Please continue praying for complete healing and that there will be no evidence of cancer when Ashley returns for follow-up scans in February.
Grace Brown: A recent CT scan showed good results, with no growth in Grace’s existing lung tumor and no new growth. She has completed radiation and resumed immunotherapy, and after a month of weekly injections, is back to one injection per month. Please pray for her continued healing, for manageable side effects, and for peace and strength for Grace and her family. Grace and Tom are thankful to God and to everyone who continues to pray for her.
Verna Enfinger: Margaret Krams is spending a couple of weeks in Florida helping care for her 92-year-old mother, Verna, and giving her sisters a much-needed caregiving break. Please remember Verna as she continues physical therapy, and remember Margaret and her sisters as they faithfully care for and support her.
Laura Johnson: Russ Johnson’s 71-year-old sister, Laura, has just moved into a hospice care facility in DeFuniak Springs, Florida. Russ is very close to his sister but is unable to travel to see her because of the health of his wife, Esther. This week, Laura’s three children were able to visit her all together – including one she had not seen in a few years. Please pray for Laura and the entire family, including Russ and Esther, and ask for the Lord’s comfort and peace for all.
Kathy Bain: Jane Gilliard’s sister, Kathy, has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and has begun chemotherapy. Kathy and her husband, Dewey, are former members of Grace Chapel. Please pray for strength, comfort, peace, successful treatment, and complete healing, and for encouragement for Dewey and their family.
Bradley Eidex: Bradley, a recent college graduate and dear family friend of Jeff and Melissa Baillairge, was diagnosed with cancer after tests revealed several malignant tumors. He began chemotherapy about a month ago. Please pray for effective treatment with minimal side effects and for his complete healing. Please also remember his family, especially his father, who is taking time away from work to be with Bradley during his treatment.
