September Prayer Letter

 September 2021

Dear Praying Friends,

Dr. J. has helped me and many others down through the years. I have tried to share the gospel with him, but as an atheist, he shuts down any conversation about God, prayer or the Bible. Over the years, he has tried to use his intellect to explain away things he has no answers for; that is until recently.

I entered his office and immediately, he asked me as a pastor, if I believed in the power of prayer. I told him that of course I did because I believe in the power of the Almighty God. Shaking and struggling for words, he shared that his five-year-old daughter has an infection that no medical treatment has been able to cure and now his nine-month-old son has respiratory difficulties that the doctors cannot alleviate. He confessed that in desperation, he had gone to a charismatic “healing service” only to leave after a few minutes when he recognized it for the sham it was. He tried to dismiss all churches because of the religious con artists he had seen, but the father in him is desperate and seeking help for his beloved children that the medical profession cannot give.

I promised that we would pray for his children to be healed. We would love to see God heal these precious children so that Dr. J. would know that God exists and cares about him and his entire family. Please pray with us that God would do what no doctor can and that Dr. J. would understand that there truly is a God who loves him and wants to save him and his family.

Praying for miracles and salvations,

 

Mark Hale
