Put On Some Rock-N-Roll

Prayers Needed

Classmates - Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers. I'm having vascular angioplasty of my legs tomorrow morning. Dr. Paul Pierce at River Region will be my surgeon, and Laura (my sister) will be taking me for the procedure. Thank you so much! Marian

Update: My angioplasty procedure went well and had no blockage in both legs.  Can't drive for 24 hours and am a little sluggish today.  Thank The Good Lord I had a good outcome.  I'm still having problems with a vascular wound not healing on my left foot, and hopefully seeing a new surgeon Thursday will help.  Thanks again for all your prayers.  

If anyone needs prayers for anything, please contact me by email or call me at 769-203-0350, and will post on our Class of 1959 blog.

May God Bless each and everyone one of you!

Prayers Needed

I have not posted in a while to let y'all know who has been in the hospital and is in need of prayers.  

Please pray for the recovery of Anita Zorn Hossley (Class of 1958) who had a stroke last week and has been transferred to CMMC for rehab.  My sister, Laura Love Ables (Class of 1961) just had a knee replacement last Tuesday at Baptist Hospital in Jackson. I was in the hospital for 17 days for a stasis ulcer on the left foot and cellulitis on the right leg.  I have home health to change out dressing every 48 hours and go to the wound clinic once a week. I'm also in the process of moving to Cannongate (liveatcannongate.com) in a couple of weeks. For all classmates who have health issues that are in need of prayers as well. 

Prayers Needed For Classmates, Etc.

Please pray for Ina Lott Whittington and her daughter, Rhonda.  They both have Omicron Variant. Also, for my Great Grandson Tidus who lives in Montana with Covid.  I have been having issues with my left leg with a vascular stasis ulcer.  Also, trying to move in a couple of weeks to a new apartment.  Just found out that my daughter, Debra Ann has Covid.  Granddaughter Lucy has it now.

Omicron Variant is hitting way too close to everyone's home. With a sad heart but with a strong faith in Almighty God today I kneel down in prayer, asking for a full recovery of those with Covid-19 and the Omicron Variant and in pain, and yes Lord I'm asking You to protect and cover us with Your mercy and forgiveness. Please protect and strengthen us and the elderly, homeless, unemployed, sick, front liners, and caregivers who are exhausted but not giving up.

Our Father, who art in heaven,

hallowed be Thy name,

Thy Kingdom come,

Thy will be done,

on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses,

as we forgive those

who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation,

but deliver us from evil.

Amen

Happy New Year Classmates!!!
