5/18/24 Classical Saturday Morning Coffee Break & Prayer Revival

Good morning. You know the rules and I know who has been naughty, nice or somewhere in between.

Thank you Annie for compiling the weekly Prayer List.

AoSHQ Weekly Prayer List

Please submit any prayer requests to me, “Annie’s Stew” at apaslo atsign hotmail dot com. Prayer requests are generally removed after four weeks unless we receive an update.

Prayer Requests:

3/2 Reforger asked for prayers for his Coworker “D”, a widowed mom of 4 who is having a rough time with daughter #1. D’s daughter had to be incarcerated. She went nuts, trashed her room, broke things, and even kicked a cop. She could use a lot of prayers.
4/20 Update – Coworker D’s daughter is going to go live with her dad. Mom is at wit’s end. They hope a change in scenery will provoke some positive changes, since nothing else is working.

3/9 – Hadrian the Seventh asked for prayers for Her Majesty, who is having knee replacement surgery. He’d like prayers for a successful operation, but also an uneventful recovery. Her previous surgery in 2019 (on the other knee) was marked by great pain and the effect of the medication was terrible.
5/8 Update – Her Majesty had to go to the hospital again. Her incision from her knee replacement become infected. They had to open it up again, clean it out, and sew it back up again. Her medical vicissitudes with her knee and eye have made her depressed. She is home again now, and looks a good deal better than when she went in.

4/18 – Misanthropic Humanitarian asked for prayers, as he will be having his right knee replacement surgery on 5/6/24.
5/6 Update – Misanthropic Humanitarian sends his thanks for all the prayers and good wishes. He is home now with a minor setback hoping and praying for a turnaround.

4/20 – AnchorPoint wanted to share an answered prayer, as well as a request. The answered prayer is: AnchorPoint’s dad passed away about 2 years ago. The estate was not going to be a windfall, but they hoped it would be enough to pay off their mortgage. After all the work was done and all the bills were paid, the final check was $72.38 off from the total mortgage payoff amount! The prayer request is: AnchorPoint’s relationship with one sister is bad. The sister has had a lot of trauma in her life and significant mental health issues and physical issues. AnchorPoint asks for prayers that their relationship would be restored.

4/20 – FenelonSpoke asked for prayers for her son. God willing, her son will graduate in May with a degree in horticulture. He has a paid internship with a multinational agricultural company in the PA Dutch area starting right after graduation. He needs to find a place to live.

4/20 – Defenestratus humbly requests prayers for a friend named Jourdan, a wonderful young woman with a 2-year-old daughter. Jourdan had gotten the good news that her breast cancer tumors had disappeared after chemo. But now she caught a nasty bug, and Jourdan has spent a week in the hospital getting blood transfusions.

4/20 - Miley, okravangelist asked for prayers for her brother. They think he is on the verge of a breakdown, stressing out over prepping. He flies off the handle and is freaking everyone else out. Miley could use prayers, too, since worrying about her brother is making her ill.
4/25 Update – Her brother seems to have calmed down lately, but prayers are still welcome!

4/27 – Rhennigantx posted an update on his friend, Tim, who we have been praying for. Tim is not doing well. He is back on the vent and unresponsive. Rhennigantx doesn’t think Tim will make it.

4/27 – Someone Else requested prayers, as she is going through difficult family issues with an elderly aunt as well as dealing with some professional problems at this time.

4/27 – JW asked for prayers for Libby, who has a glioblastoma tumor that affects her word choices, so communication is very difficult. Libby has had surgery, radiation, and chemo, but is worse in the 4 weeks since treatment ended.
5/13 Update – The MRI showed that her tumor started growing aggressively as soon as the treatment stopped, plus she has 2 new inch-sized tumors near the treatment area. She is almost completely unable to communicate and feels very alone because of that. Her prognosis has changed from 18 months to maybe 4. Thank you to all who are praying for this total stranger.

5/2 – A Dude in MI requested prayers for dude Jr who is having a rough situation at school. Please pray for a quick resolution and no lasting effects.

5/4 – Sock Monkey requested prayers for a SIL who is interviewing with the Republican county leaders, for the interim position of County Attorney. He’s not necessarily a Trump supporter, but he is definitely qualified for the job and has the values that mesh.

5/4 – Paul requested prayers for the families of the toddlers bombed to death in Gaza.

5/8 – Fenelon Spoke asked for prayers for the young people graduating from college this weekend and beyond – that the graduation ceremonies might be peaceful, and that the young people going on to internships and jobs and looking for jobs might have a future with hope. Also for peace on college and university campuses.

5/11 – Ace-Endorsed Author A.H. Lloyd sent thanks for the prayers for his daughter and grandchildren, at the death of the children’s father. The family began tackling the financial side of the situation last week, and learned that because of various programs, his ex-son-in-law will provide support for his children in death that he never was likely to do in life, which is a blessing. This in turn opens a path forward for Lloyd’s daughter and her children to have a place of their own.

5/11 – Tonypete asked for prayers for #4 son. 5/11 was his wedding day, and he asked R. to stand with him. She isn’t his birth mom but raised him after T. died.

5/11 – Taq, rickrolled by Jesus sent thanks to the Horde for praying for his mother the last couple of months. Her fractured hip has healed and she is walking, albeit slowly and with a cane, again. He has made several modifications to the house to make it suitable for her. She spent a month in a nursing home, one of the better ones in the community. Taq and his father spent 12 hours a day there, and half the nurses were kind and full of compassion and half were slow, lazy factory workers who seemed to resent the residents. They also resented Taq and his dad being in their workspace. Taq is grateful that Go brought him here, because if he hadn’t ended up in a hospital in 2019 from alcohol, he wouldn’t be here taking care of his folks.

5/11 – Jewells said the chemo break doesn’t seem to be helping. The swelling in her feet and legs is terrible, and they don’t have an answer. When she goes back on 6/11, if the doctor doesn’t have any other options, she is considering stopping treatment.

5/11 – Reforger had a request for his neighbor, “B”. He had been accidentally poisoned by carbon monoxide and was in a coma for 6 days. He has lost function in his legs and damaged his brain. Reforger has tried to talk him past the “I wish I had died” stage, so prayers are needed for “B”.

5/11 – RedMindBlueState asked for prayers for a friend since age 5, who just lost her husband suddenly. Prayer for her and for her boys are appreciated.

5/11 – Mollo, lurker requested prayers for a 7-year-old named Eli who suffered a stroke. Right now he can’t talk and the right side of his body isn’t working. Pray for healing for Eli and strength for his family.

5/11 – J asked for prayers for his wife, who has been experiencing debilitating migraines for years. J prays for her. The kids pray for her. The doctors have done what they think they can do within what they know to do. Maybe she needs prayer more than anything? (Is there any doubt?)

5/14 – Nearsider has a job! This afternoon, Nearsider received and accepted an offer to work as a federal contractor. He will begin on 6/3, and will make approximately 80% of his previous salary. Thank you for all the prayers, concerns, well-wishes, and reach0outs. A very particular thank you to those of you who have hired me to build model aircraft for you – they’re all still going to get done, I promise.

5/14 – DaveT sent an update. We have been praying for the lawsuits related to his home (that a relative took loans out against) and his elderly cats. He has a GiveSendGo set up to help with the costs; please contact Annie for that information. He sends his thanks for the prayers.

2 Corinthians 4:8-9
We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair, persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed.
