Thank You Note…

Dear Music Ministry,

Thank you for the cards, texts, food, visits, songs and so many ways you expressed love and concern for us during the days of Mary Jo’s declining health and then again, at the time of her passing. The plant sent to the funeral is thriving…like Mary Jo is now doing in Heaven!
Your love and prayers have carried us through, and we are honored to serve alongside you in this ministry.

Elthea and Bart

• Christi Wall – 1. My mother will be admitted to the hospital on October 5 for her plasma exchange. Her neurologist decided to coordinate the plasma exchange with the next infusion of her medication in the hopes to limit the stress on her body. Please continue to pray for both physical and emotional strength for both my parents in the days and weeks leading to this procedure. 2. My co-worker, Wesley Wilson and his wife adopted their 2-year-old son, Yax, this time last year. In July, Yax started having infantile brain seizures. He is now on hospice care at UAB and is expected to pass from this life any day.
• Ellen Brunson – Thank you all for the prayers for my sister, Lisa. She is home and doing well after her surgery. Please continue to pray for her and her family as she recovers and starts treatment in the next few weeks.
• Karen Fisk - Please pray for a new date for our bonus boy's procedure as soon as possible!
• Beverly Anglin – Travel mercies as Richard and I travel to Canada on Monday. We will celebrate my sister’s 80th birthday, go to cemetery to visit nephew’s grave (he was killed in Japan in May), try to find my brother for a visit, and enjoy seeing our daughter Laura. We will also see a close family friend who has a terminal brain tumor. It will be an emotional time on many levels. Prayers for so much right now but we know our God is there and gives us strength and courage when life is filled with tough challenges. See you guys in a couple of weeks. Love y’all. Beverly
• Laura Leslie Stewart – Brother-in-law, Shane Hardy, at MD Anderson this week for tests. Had a CT scan Monday and when the Dr. compared July scan to Mondays scan, she could not find any tumors. Had MRI last night and still waiting on those results.
• Bill Tolbert – Has bad infection in his hand due to a cut he obtained at work – Antibiotics not working and has a lot of pain.
• Emily Hudgens - Update on Mari Latham: She had an angiogram this week that showed no vascular malformations or other concerning areas, which is encouraging. She has also had some new sensation in her lower extremities, was able to sit with minimal assistance, and has moved out of the PICU. Please continue praying for decreased spinal cord swelling around her T5-T7 vertebrae, increased movement and sensation, continued healing, and wisdom as her family begins making decisions about intensive rehabilitation. Also pray for strength and peace for Mari Latham and her family as they take things one day at a time. Thank you
• Alissa Murray – Please be in prayer for Alissa and family in the loss of her father who passed away Sunday night. There will be a graveside service on Thursday, September 24 at 10:00 am at Natchez Trace Memorial Park, 759 Hwy 51, Madison, MS.
• Leanne Sage - Al and I will be flying to Wisconsin Sunday morning to help our daughter, Stephanie, and her family get ready for their move to Sicily. We’d appreciate prayers as we go to help them as they navigate this huge move!
• Cathy Brown - Bobby’s Mom fell yesterday and broke her hip … she had surgery yesterday and then the plan is for rehab.
• ***Jeff and Belinda Styres – Please pray for our family in the loss of Jeff’s father who passed away last night. Pray especially for his Mom. Arrangements will be sent out as soon as I know of them. Thanks for praying!
