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:
8/6 - LMD Outer Banker requested prayers for a son who is undergoing an experimental treatment for
chronic Lyme disease, which he has been battling for 25 years. He will be in a clinic abroad for about a
month.
8/31 Update – The son is on his way home. After one month of treatment, the tests appear to show he
is free of Lyme and its coinfections. For the first time in 15 years, he no longer has to take antibiotics.
Now the challenge is for his immune system to repair itself to be able to ward off future problems. The
clinic indicates that will take about 6 months of healthy eating and supplements. Thank you for your
prayers; LMD Outer Banker and family are crying in joy.
9/7 Update – Someone Else asked for more information about the clinic and location where this
treatment was possible, if LMD Outer Banker would be willing to post a comment with that information,
or let Annie’s Stew know so she can forward the information. Someone Else has a relative who has
suffered for years and was finally diagnosed with Lyme Disease. Someone Else’s relative also needs
prayers for healing.
9/14 Update – the Clinic is in Germany, under clinicum.st.georg. (The URL is https://www.klinik-st-
georg.de/en). It is extremely expensive. The son said for most of the people there it was life or death.
9/21 Update – CP offered to help with logistics of a Horde member needs to come to the clinic noted
here. He is stationed in Germany, within an hour of the clinic. He also knows people at the local U.S.
Consulate. He said he can’t promise speed, only friendly assistance and moral support. Contact Annie’s
Stew and she can help you get in contact with CP, if you are going to Germany for treatment.
8/23 – Grumpy and Recalcitrant requested continued prayers for J.J. Sefton. J.J. is feeling “not too bad,
all things considered”. His post-radiation/chemo MRI is scheduled for the first week of Sept, and this is
when he will find out where things are at, concerning his cancer. Please keep praying for complete
remission, recovery, and a return to good health.
9/24 Update – J.J. posted that his last MRI was negative, which means that he is essentially cancer-
free. He has just started a 6-week course of chemo maintenance with regular MRIs to monitor for any
recurrence, presumably for the rest of his life. All things considered, his doctors are very upbeat that this
could be longer than the standard prognosis. He sends his thanks again to everyone for their prayers
and messages of support.
9/28 Update – J.J. said he just finished the first month of maintenance. It is amazing that it’s just a pill
that he takes at bedtime, 5 straight days per month, for 6 months. Now he has 3 weeks of until the next
round, and an MRI in the coming weeks.
8/31 – Jewells45 sent an update. She started on Cyremza 2 weeks ago, and the only side effects are
really bad headaches and fatigue. She is praying this works.
9/7 Update – Jewells and her husband had a tough weekend. Jewells had a lesion on her leg that hurt
so bad she couldn’t walk, and her husband had to drive himself to the ER. He was unable to urinate, and
in terrible pain. The problem was related to his prostate.
9/21 Update – Jewells’ husband got another catheter put back in on Tuesday. On Wednesday, he was
very lethargic and barely responsive, so she called 911. It turned out his sodium was dangerously low. If

she’d waited, he probably would have had a seizure or slipped into a coma. He stayed at the hospital
overnight.
9/7 – Tonypete requested prayers for his lovely better half. She had an injury that resulted in 4-5 staples
in the back of her head. No permanent damage or serious injury, so they are thankful for that.
9/7 – Sal asked for continued prayers for Pooky’s girl, who is waiting for Lil’ Pooky to be induced (or not),
and prayers for her friend J, 80, who could use prayers for healing. J. tripped and face-planted on her
patio. She is home, but facing a longish recovery.
9/14 Update – Baby boy Pooky has arrived. Mom and baby are home.
9/7 – FenelonSpoke asked for prayers for healing for C, a member of her congregation, who is
undergoing cancer treatment (chemo right now). She has a positive attitude, but the chemo exhausts
her.
9/11 – Jmel asked for prayers for her sister, who was hospitalized, and sent thanks later in the day to
those who prayed. Her sister’s blood work is looking good.
9/14 – COMountainMarie had asked for prayers. She was diagnosed with breast cancer a couple of
weeks ago.
9/14 – MH sent a prayer of thanks for the fire fighters and first responders for tackling the dangerous
“Davis Fire” in Reno, NV this past week.
9/14 – Sal asked for prayers for E and her 100-year-old mother, who is being moved into a new care
facility this week, that the move will not be too difficult and that she will adjust well.
9/16 – Teresa in Fort Worth asked for prayers for her husband’s coworker, Chuck. He is a young family
man in his 40s who received a diagnosis of colon cancer a few months ago, and things are looking pretty
bad right now. He had been receiving chemo in preparation for surgery, but now the tumor(s) are
intertwined with other organs, so they cannot safely operate. He and his wife divorced a few months
before the diagnosis, but she is still helping him out. His two adolescent sons are having a hard time
adjusting to all the upheaval. Chuck is planning to sell his house so he can move in with his dad, who is in
bad health as well.
9/16 – notsothoreau asked for prayers for a woman from church, R, and her family. R just lost her son to
suicide. He left a wife and 3 kids behind. There were no warning signs and R is in shock.
9/17 – PA Dutchman asked for prayers for his sister, Lori, and her husband, Fred. Fred just learned that
he has stage 4 lung cancer and there is nothing doctors can do for him.
9/18 – “…” asked for prayers for a friend, “J”, who was injured in a hit and run. He is left with back pain
and his arm is numb.
9/19 – Erebus asked for prayers for mom, whose years of suffering from Alzheimer’s are almost over.

9/21 – Commissioner Hrothgar offered prayers up for former (and hopefully future) President Trump, to
keep him safe from harm and that the forces of evil arrayed against him and our country be made
ineffective and come to naught.

of her son due to addiction-related ailments.

vehicle crash this week, leaving behind a pregnant wife and two stepchildren.
9/21 – FenelonSpoke requested prayers for her son, K, to get a job related to his major, which was
horticulture. He has been diligently sending out resumes from searches online, but hasn’t heard
anything yet. Also, prayers for other morons and ‘ettes looking for jobs.

friend and fellow parishioner, who recently had a tumor removed from her spine.
9/23 – Lady in Black asked for prayers for her dad. He is 89 and has upcoming cataract surgery. The
cataracts are so bad, he is now legally blind. His surgery is 10/1 and he is very afraid and worried.
Prayers for his peace of mind, safety, and well-being during the surgery would be greatly appreciated.

brother Mike, who passed away on 9/26 from stomach cancer. Prayers for comfort toward his widow
Irene and adjust son Michael are also appreciated.

fibromyalgia and another connective tissue disorder that can be severely limiting, and his most recent
job has a terribly toxic work environment. Despite this, the son has been pushing through. He has been
praying, but feels that God has abandoned him. The Horde’s prayers helped this son the last time;
please pray for him again.
9/28 – “Perfessor” Squirrel asked for prayers for a family of missionaries from his church, currently on
their way to Kenya to begin training Kenyans on how to engage in Christian missionary work in Africa.

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.
