Prayer

There are only 3 VVF women left and I praise God that we have sent so many home dry. I am also thankful that the ship will be in Togo next year which is close enough for those that went home wet to return for follow up surgery and they will have another chance at healing. The 3 women that are left are named Akouvi, Terese, and Beatrice. Terese and Beatrice have wounds that need a lot of time to heal and time we are quickly running out of. We are doing all we know how to do medically and now it is time to pray. Today the nurses and staff that have been caring for these women are going to fast over lunch and meet and pray over them. If you feel led please join us in doing so over your lunch. We are claiming this scripture over them.
"And the prayer of faith will save the sick and the Lord will raise him up..." James 5:15
"Elijah was a man with a nature lie ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months. And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit." - James 5: 17&18

  1. I was thinking just this morning that I needed to ask you and Beccy for an update on the ladies... breaks my heart. Did Agath already go home I assume? And I thought Akouvi was dry when I left... anyway, will join with you in fasting and praying over lunch today.

  2. Maggie, know that the Lord is good. May His resurrection power bring dignity, healing and love to those to whom you minister to. Terri
