Kendra Brady, who works preparing college students for the mission field, has been struggling with energy and breathing lately. She went to her cardiologist in Denver on December 15th . They ran many tests and then on her way home, they called and said that she needed to return immediately. They did a chest CT and found a pulmonary embolism. They started treatment right away and they will be running more tests soon. She is home now. Please pray for her complete healing.

Ildefonso and Lisbia Ramirez said that since September, the city has been submerged in a war between the drug cartels. It is not safe to be out of your home after dark and so this has meant changing prayer meetings, Bible studies, counseling, and classes. Even weddings and celebrations have had to be canceled. Now most church activities are done on the internet and many are growing in their faith. "Please pray for our church, strength for our church family, and for the violence to stop. Also, please pray for wisdom to counsel those who are going through many troubles."
