He now weighs 3lbs. 9ozs. and is off all medications. They have been feeding him with a bottle once a day but he has difficulty with it because he gets too tired, because of that he still has the little feeding tube going into his little mouth. But they are amazed that he can even drink from the bottle at all at this point. Alicia still needs prayer. She is gaining weight and now weighs 100 lbs. but she needs prayer because she has had four seizures in the past five days. She tried to get an appointment with the clinic but they can not see her until Dec. 12th. Please continue to pray for the Lord's total and complete healing for her.

Please join us in prayer for Brenda.

    "I do believe in God almighty, but I am a sinner and my problem is with stealing. I have prayed to God to help me with my problem and I have tried so hard to keep from doing it, but I find myself stopping for a period of time and then I am back at it again. I really want to stop and be faithful to God, but I don't know what is wrong with me. I get so angry with myself and after doing it I feel so guilty. I can't sleep and I cry, I say I am not going to do it again, but it does not work. I have searched for a program/counseling, that perhaps I could attend, something like AA, but have not be successful in doing so. I think I need help with trying to overcome my problem, so I am asking for prayer that maybe could be a beginning for me to stop this awful problem that I have.
    I also would like to receive the free bible that you are offering. My name is Brenda
