MEDICAL
Michael Prather: Was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer that has metastasized to his liver, bone, spine, and brain. Michael is known by many members at GC, and has worked with the His Way group. Please pray for comfort and healing.
Lachlan Doris (great granddaughter of Betty Doris): Four-year-old Lachlan was recently
hospitalized for breathing problems due to low oxygen levels but is now back at home. She was a preemie when born, which may explain part of the oxygen issue. Will be seeing a pulmonologist for treatment alternatives. Please pray for Lachlan’s full recovery, and for her parents and family.
Bert & Joyce Blackwell: Bert is at home under Joyce’s care as his health continues to slowly decline. Please pray for comfort for Bert, and strength, comfort, and energy for Joyce, especially as she keeps up with their sweet 8-year-old great granddaughter who lives with them.

Bobby McVey: Has hopefully had his last chemo treatment for lung cancer. He had a meeting on Friday to review the results of his latest CT scan. Will report that next week. Praise be to our Heavenly Father. Please pray for full recovery.
David Wheeler: Results from a recent MRI show that cancer in the right kidney is growing slowly, but there is a new, aggressive type of cancer in his left kidney. The good news is that it has not metastasized. David will be following up with his doctor in June. David is not a candidate for kidney or prostate surgery. Please pray for strength, comfort, and peace for both David and wife Carolyn. They are a true loving inspiration.
Esther and Russ Johnson: Esther recently changed doctors as part of her dealing with
Parkinson’s disease. Please pray that the change in doctors and any treatment modifications will lead to much better daily health, strength, and control over any anxiety. Please pray for Russ as her caregiver.
Cathy Arvidson (sister-in-law of Esther Johnson): Dealing with severe back pain due to
spinal stenosis. Please pray that her back surgery will relieve the pain, and that she has complete recovery.
John Wood: We are praying that John’s medical treatments for pancreatic cancer are effective and that God will lead him to the very best solutions for complete healing. We pray that God continues to be glorified through the tremendous faith that John, Alicia, and their family have displayed throughout this journey.
Laura Johnson: We pray for Russ Johnson’s sister and her ongoing battle with bladder cancer (over nine years). Laura is having chemo infusion treatments that have had tough side effects. We pray for Laura: for strength, reduced nausea, and that the treatments will rid her body of cancer. Give her peace, Lord.
Louise Clites: Is in failing health as she continues to reside in her assisted living apartment in Cumming. At age 94, having lived a life of love for our Heavenly Father and his son, her children ask us to pray for some “good days” for Louise as she waits on the Lord to call her home.
