Alcornites,

 

A few months have passed since we were all together for the Mid-Winter Conference.  We received rave reviews from Alcornites all over the country and we are thankful for their praises. 

 We as Alcornites have always been a close knit group and I want to solicit your prayers for a few members of our chapter that have gone through some challenging times in the last few weeks and days.   

 

Ø  Belinda Johnson’s sister (Roberta Louise Pilate, also a member of our chapter) had open heart surgery on this past Thursday( May 28, 2009).  She had to undergo a second surgery on Saturday night due to an intestinal blockage.  The doctors will keep her on a ventilator and heavily sedated for a few more days.  Belinda is at the hospital with her around the clock.  She is in the Surgical ICU unit of North Houston Medical Center (1960 & 45) 

Ø  Erskine Payne recently lost one of his nephews that was attending Mississippi State

Ø  Esther Ransom’s brother passed two weeks ago

Ø  Brenda Griffin lost a cousin last week (many of you may remember that she suffered the tragic loss of a family member during the conference)

Ø  Mrs. Theresa Prater had foot surgery (currently at home recovering)

Ø  Lori George is still recovering from foot surgery

Ø  Dr. Mary White was recently hospitalized

 

 

As we are directed by His Word:  Let’s ‘Pray Without Ceasing’.
