Pray for my niece, who is 24, pregnant, unmarried and is rapidly walking away from her Christian faith. It is causing gut wrenching, heart brokenness, and a myriad of stress within her family/my sister, brother-in-law, and nieces. She has walked into a lifestyle, culture and other family that has completely turned their back on God.

[We read] In the King James Bible, Ezekiel 22:30: "And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none." O God, please help us and teach us to build a wall [of prayer] around the USA, Canada, Poland and Great Britain. Are you ready to stand in the gap, where God is the Helper and Teacher?

Please pray that Great Britain, Poland, the USA/Canada would overcome for: (The Acts 26.18).
* Poland, pray for freedom from dead religion to saving faith of Jesus Christ as the Saviour and the Lord by faith only, * the Church in the USA & Canada & Great Britain – Pray for repentance and cleansing of the church - Matt. 3.12 "Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire." * my family: 1. Stir up the hearts of my family for ministry for me, my wife Dorothy, our daughter Ann, and our sons Peter and Daniel - "..but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord" Joshua 24.15 2. Pray for God's will, wisdom, discernment, revelation and recognition for me and my family; I ask God for Edmund’s work situation, God's direction for Edmund , Dorothy, Peter, Daniel and Ann (also God's protection over the company where she works), 3. God's order in my work. I ask God for great wisdom at my work. Blessings and the knowledge of Jesus Christ for my bosses. Thank God for the continuation of my work. Edmund & Dorothy Krzeminski

It must have been the many prayers to get Allen to Hannah's wedding because we had almost no issues, everything went real smooth - praise God! We had an enjoyable time and it was a huge blessing to be there! However today's trip to Iowa City was a bit more challenging but we got through.

There was good news today! With that said though, he still needs and wants all the prayers he can get. It's hard to believe that it's been a year now since we started the trail of doctors that took on, what they call, a complex person with puzzling symptoms.

The good news is that he jumped up 10 points on a memory/cognitive screening. She was also very impressed with how well he is walking now and wants me to send her a video so she can show her colleagues the difference between a previous video I had sent and how it's going now to show them what hepatic Encephalopathy can do to someone. The 10 point jump has landed him in the mild range of cognitive decline/dementia compared to moderate and even mod-severe. He did better now than he did back in December and the difference is noticed!

More testing and waiting continues, in about a month he'll have his 3rd lumbar puncture and this time it will be sent to Mayo to see if the antibody that was found from another test will be a match in the lumbar fluid, if it is it will be more proof that there could be an autoimmune going on. He will also have the PET done to look for cancer (still waiting for insurance approval) He still has some elevated markers to indicate infection or inflammation. If he wasn't doing so good, they would have started something called "pex", to "wash his blood" to remove the antibody to see if it would improve things. I'm glad he didn't have to do that and the improving has already begun.

His heart still has an abnormal EKG, which is a concern for cardiac arrest but thank goodness for no other symptoms of troubles, we just try the best to keep stress down. It does cause concern for a multi-system disease affecting liver, brain, and possibly heart. She feels something is going on beyond what's been found already but still trying to pinpoint if possible because it looks as if it is something treatable since he is responding so well to the medication he's on.

Overall - good reports, Testing continues, and she's hoping for more improvement but also a continuous stability with symptoms.

Thank you for your prayers, please continue!

please pray that God first convict me of sin in my situation, then forgive me, then prepare me for my upcoming meeting against Christians who aided and abetted my childhood abuser. All I want them to do is to stop. Just that. Stop sinning against the trauma victim, That's all.

4 year old Caleb Anderson is at Gillett Children's Hospital today undergoing a tethered spinal cord release surgery. At this moment he is getting his IV started/prepping for surgery. They will be in the hospital for 3-5 days with 6 week recovery at home. When asked by Kayla his mom on Monday "what are you thankful for today Caleb?" He answered, "I'm thankful that we got to play games as a family tonight, that we get to see Grandma tomorrow before I have surgery, and that we have Captain Crunch...Amen!"

Rosa Yath was diagnosed with Intraheptic cholestasis (I don't know what this is) and they decided they needed to induce and meet baby today. She is 37 weeks so baby should be big enough. Big brother Nathaniel is being taken care of by grandparents and Steven and Rosa went in at 6:30 this morning. They are asking for prayers for a healthy baby and mama.

Continued prayers for Bob Miller after his second stroke. He began speech therapy on Monday.

Praise to God for Linda Nelson's succesful move into town. She is overall feeling strong and hopeful about this change after losing her husband Dan several months ago. Thanks for church folks and her family who helped her move.

Sympathies to Randy Will (wife Mona) on the loss of his father last week. He had been on hospice for some time and was well cared for and dearly loved by his family. Visitation is Sunday August 12th from 2-5 and funeral on Monday the 13th at 11 at the United Church in Mapleton.

Best wishes to Don Klaseus as he moves from his home to Old Main Village on Wednesday, August 15th starting at 8:00 a.m. We are still looking for a few more strong folks to move furniture into a one bedroom apartment.

Praise God for the over 160 children who are attending Vacation Bible School this week!!! Leaders are amazing and kids are retaining some of God's good news for them!

Thank you for your prayers for Brenda Smith. This surgery has gone more smoothly than the first back surgery. She is now asking for the ability to sleep at night and full recovery.

I need grace to overcome a sin I fall into. I tend to hold an ideal expectation of my brothers and sisters. While I am to pray for them, I find I witness leaders kind of doing their own thing. So I find I get frustrated when I don't see changes in them.

I also read Amos. It reveals what happens to those who don't keep His commands and help the poor and needy.....fire!

I need to pray rightly in petitions and not fall into judgments against others and what angers the Father.
