Prayer List

Brother Knights, Russell Rouse could use some prayers right now. SK JohnTieskotter messaged me today and said that Russell had dental work done on Wednesday that he is in the process of recovering from. He has also had a lot of pain due to his hip which they are going to replace but he has to be nicotine free before they will do the surgery. We know it is very hard to stop an addiction like smoking especially when one has done it for years. Let us pray not just for Russell to be able to get nicotine free so he can have the surgery but that if Russell wants to kick the habit for good he can. Lets also pray for healing and strength during this time. 

Update on Don, I was sent this update earlier this week and had not got a chance to send this out for that I am sorry. 

"Don is now at Quail Creek. He is on the Redbud wing, room 56. 

He had quite the reaction to the IV antibiotics, and was displaying stroke signs. After all the tests were done, they determined it was an antibiotic reaction. Once the bad antibiotic left his system he returned to normal. Thank you God!

His eye surgery will be this Thursday the 28th, Don will most likely stay in Quail Creek for 2 weeks. He also meets with an infectious disease doctor next week to see what they can do about breaking this UTI cycle. Please pray that they can successfully stop the UTI's. Thank you so very much for keeping Don in your prayers."

I did ask and Don would love to have visitors.  

Lord Jesus Christ, please watch over and both Don and Russell during these trying times.  Help heal them and give them strength. Allow your strength to not only give them physical strength but to run deeper and to solidify their mental and spiritual resolve. Lord you healed the blind, please allow us to see you clearly. You healed the deaf mute, please allow us to hear you and to speak your word. You healed the lame, please allow us healing and strength to follow in your path. Lord Jesus Christ, we know that all things are possible through you therefore we hubbly ask that you help our brother knights. Amen

Update John Tieskotter coming out of retirement to construct a ramp....

SK's On Saturday, August 30th, John Tieskotter is organizing a ramp construction project. It will have a 12' ramp and a 5' x 10' deck. The address is 416 South Pine Street, Apt. 107, Marshfield. The Apt owner has previously given him permission to construct something on the site. It would be really appreciated if you could come out and assist John; this is a very important cause that will greatly benefit folks who require ramps to enter and exit their homes. The start time is unknown to me, although I would guess it is 8 or 9 a.m. Sometime this coming week, I will obtain a precise time and include it in a reminder email.

Update on Don Broyles

Brothers, I spoke with one of Don's daughters today and asked how he was doing. He is still in the hospital and has had another setback. It looked as if he would be moving to a care facility while he recovered from this last infection but before they moved him, his mood and behavior changed. They were concerned that he had another stroke. They now think it may be caused by a reaction to one of the meds he is on, so they are going to switch him over to a different medication and see if things improve. I asked if there was anything that the Knights could do and she said just pray, knock God's door down with prayers. They need us flooding heaven with prayers for Don, please brothers lift him and his family up in prayer.

Prayers for Brother's John Tieskotter and his family.

Brother's John Tieskotter reached out to me the other day, him and his whole family could use a lot of prayers. John's nephew's nephew has died, he was only teenager, they are asking for prayers for the family and for his soul. They are not releasing details but it was tragic and unexpected. The family is still working out funeral plans at this time. 

Bless, O God of eternal life, all who have died tragically. Grant them rest and peace in the assurance of your compassion and love. Comfort those who mourn in their deep sense of loss. Strengthen them to face feelings of pain, and anger and help us to reach out in love to all who mourn for this young person. Through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen

Don Broyles

Our brother knight Don Broyles has taken another bad turn, and is in need of prayers. His wonderful wife Chris has humbly asked for prayers for Don.

This is the message that I received from Deacon Mike that came from Chris. 

"Good evening! I'm humbly asking for prayers for Don. He has landed in the ER once again. Apparently he was not completely over the UTI, and now he has another hospital stay. They will be admitting him tonight, on 3B in room number 73. Don declined yesterday and began hallucinating this morning. Unsure if this will interfere with his scheduled eye surgery on Thursday. Both Don and I would certainly appreciate him being remembered in prayer. Thanks so much."

Brothers please add both Don and Chris to your prayers. 

Prayer for the sick invoking Jesus' miraculous healings

Lord Jesus Christ, Savior and consoler of our weakness, who delivered Peter’s mother-in-law and the ruler’s son from a high fever; who restored strength to the paralytic, cleansed the lepers, healed the centurion’s servant; who saved the woman suffering from hemorrhage, raised up the man lying helpless on his pallet at the pool of Bethsaida, went about the towns and villages healing all kinds of ailments … may the sick … be freed from their illness and restored in body and mind, and may rightly see fit to praise your power until the end of their days; you who live and reign forever and ever. Amen.
