Melanie Friesen
From Melanie Friesen: Please pray for my nephew, Luke (my sister, Alisa's youngest). He has severe hemophilia and has been experiencing more frequent internal bleeds so he is having surgery tomorrow at 1:30 to have a port put in so that he will be able to receive his injections more often. This can be a risky surgery for someone with a bleeding disorder. Pray that everything goes smoothly and that my sister and her husband would sense the peace of God.

Emmie requests prayer for her brother in-law who had surgery two months ago. He had four parathyroid glands removed and part of his thyroid. He just got his voice back this week, but is only able to whisper. He is also on dialysis every second day due to kidney cancer, and is functioning on one kidney which has less than 10% of function. Things are looking grim for him.

Andrew Friesen
Prayer request from Andrew Friesen: Courtney Joy and I (your missionaries with Africa Inland Mission) will be making our final trip to Manitoba before leaving for France and then onto Chad the following year! We will be gone for 3 years so we want to make the most of our time out west. It will be great to connect with the congregation and share a little bit more about our upcoming ministry in Chad! We arrive in Winnipeg on March 29 and return to Toronto on April 26. A major prayer request is regarding transportation. We will be traveling throughout Manitoba and Saskatchewan to fundraise and say our goodbyes. It would be a huge blessing if someone was able to lend us a car during that month. Thanks and God bless!

Update from Katy Hollander: Thank you to each one of you who lifted up my client in prayer over the past couple of weeks. She ended up being in court for two days and although it was difficult and exhausting, I think it went as well as it could considering the circumstances. It will be about a month until we know the outcome of her case, but no matter what that result is my client can rest in knowing she did a very brave thing and her assailant has been held accountable for his actions. Praise God for His peace and comfort during this time and all that He is continuing to do in the lives of those involved.

Update from Marla Williamson: Sadly, Greg's mom passed away at around 11:30 pm Eastern time. We had to make the difficult decision to take her off of life support as her injuries were too extensive. Needless to say, we are heartbroken. We feel so supported, though - both from near and far. We continue to covet your prayer support as we make the necessary arrangements.

Please pray for one of my clients from Turning Point. She is going to court on Monday Feb. 26 to testify regarding an assault. Her assailant has pleaded not guilty. Please pray that the assailant would change his mind on or before the court date and plead guilty so that my client would not have to go through the trauma of testifying in court. Please also pray that if this doesn’t happen, that God would give her His peace and favor during the court proceedings.
Thank you,
-Katy Hollander
