I know that there are many young people in our area who are suffering from numerous medical problems, but there are four children ranging in ages from three to twelve who are on my mind that need a special healing touch from God. One of these children has a serious heart defect at the age of two and has never had the privilege of tasting food; one has a form of adult cancer that the doctors don’t know how to treat it. Please say a special prayer for a touch from the Great Physician for little Sam McNaugh, Bentley Strickland, Maci Hamilton, Matthew O’Neal (awaiting a heart transplant). These are tough little fighters who have endured and continue to endure daily pain. Please continue to pray for these amazing young people. Update: Sam is back in the hospital at Blair E. Batson for heart issues; please continue to pray for his improvement as the days go by. Matthew is still patiently waiting for a heart transplant. Pray this will soon happen for such a sweet little boy. Maci is doing well at this time and is enjoying some home time with her family.
