My brother-in-law, a VietNam vet who lost both legs in that conflict, is in need of triple by-pass surgery...soon. At present, they are trying to get the VA to allow him to have the surgery in the land they are serving as missionaries. It would be very expensive for him to travel all the way home to Virginia for the surgery at this time because they have just put out a lot of money for their visas, language school, and paperwork...trying to establish an orphanage, and they have 12 of their adopted children with them, as well. Please pray that the VA grants them the go-ahead to have the surgery done at a hosptial near them. It is a very reputable hospital, so there is no concern about having the procedure there as opposed to in the USA.

Thanks,

Shery

Heavenly Father, we praise You for the willingness of this couple to bring the love of the Father to the fatherless. Bless their ministry beyond expectation, that others might see Your care and concern for the widows and orphans and seek to know You through the salvation of Jesus Christ.

May it be, Merciful Father, that You will work through every detail and set aside every hindrance, that successful surgery will be performed where he serves. We thank You for Your every provision, for You have promised to supply our every need according to Your riches in Glory by Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19. To You be all Glory, Honor, and Praise, now and forevermore, Amen ...

I am praying. You know, after the surgery he will be a much healthier person and have more energy. He just needs to get this behind him and then it's uphill from there.
