Tidbits from PR

This is finals week at BJU. Nathan has several exams he would like you to remember to pray about. On Monday he has Calculus 2 and needs an A to preserve his grade. On Thursday is his Geometry test which is also important for him to do well on. He departs from Greenville on Friday morning and will arrive here at 1:30 PM EST. We are all excited since we have not seen him for a whole year.

This week we visited a gentleman who fell from his roof the Sunday before Thanksgiving and nearly died as a result. He has some memory loss and some behavioral abnormalities. Jaime is also in need of Christ. His mind is not clear enough yet to truly understand the Gospel. His wife was very attentive during our visit. She claims to be saved but has drifted away for the Lord. She promised to be in church today and kept her word and brought her husband along! After the service Margaret spoke to me about her need to get right with the Lord. Keep both of these folks in your prayers.

A few weeks ago I mentioned a young man who visited the church who has an ongoing drug problem. He has a court hearing tomorrow, but we are not praying for him to get away with anything. Rather our request is that the Lord would do whatever it might take to bring him to true repentance. I'll not mention his name, but would appreciate your prayers.

Chu is still battling cancer. He is at home and receiving hospice care. His spirit is good, but he is unable to get out to church. His kidneys have resumed their duties after a complete shutdown a few weeks ago. We did some Christmas caroling at his home last week to ensure he does not feel left out.
