Prayer Requests 3/31/2023

• From Paula Duncan:  “My little cousin Jaxon Franklin 6 years old (in South Carolina) was hit by a car getting off the school bus. He has broken bones and head trauma. They are concerned that he might be blind also. Please pray for God’s healing hands on this little guy.” Latest update: “They took him to surgery this afternoon and they operated on two places his bones were broken. They have him in an induced coma. My cousin said they will try and bring him out of the coma and assess his brain function and his sight [tomorrow]. The little guy is going through a hard fight. He is definitely not out of the woods. Keep praying! Our God is powerful!”
• Amber and Ben Isenhower care for other children; one of the little girls, Naomi (8 months old), is very sick with pneumonia, high fever, low oxygen, labored breathing and was admitted. She was intubated, and is still very sick.  Please ask the Good Father to care for this little one and help her heal.   Latest update: “She’s doing ok. Stable and got her feeding tube. They are turning down the vent and O2 levels slowly and she is reacting well so far. She’d sedated and resting well.”
