Dear Brother,

1. Request from Susan: This is a prayer request for my father who is not keeping well and is admitted in the hospital.He is undergoing few tests and X-rays.He is responding to medicines.The result of the tests is awaited.He will be in the hospital for a couple of days.

2. Please pray for Shanti G who is to undergo a hip replacement surgery.

(Earlier mails - I just wanted to share a prayer request, would you please pass this along to your prayer partners. The request is for a 29-year-old mother named Shanthi G who has Lupus ( an auto-immunal disease). She had a baby via C-section on Dec. 6, 2009. The mother is still in the hospital and is critical, today the doctors may remove both her kidneys depending on the availability of the operation theatre. Her husband is a consultant and travels out of the state every week. He only comes home on the weekends. Her parents are taking care of the children (a 5-year-old boy & an almost 2 month baby) at home and they don't drive, hence they can't visit their daughter during the week. Some of us in our prayer group who came to know of this situation have been helping them out. Please pray that the surgery will go well and that she may be able to come home and be with her children. Thank you all for praying.)

3. For Leelamma who has to receive money from debtors. They are refusing to pay up the money.

4. For Binil who is undergoing brain surgery.

5. For Anirudh, 12 years suffering from liver cancer.

6. Requesting your continued prayers for Mrs.Nainan too for her hand pain and discomforts that she is suffering from.

7. For my health - I am just recovering from a fever that has taken its toll on me. By God's grace children and me have been healed of the fever though we are all exhausted. Also I request your prayers for my husband and mother-in-law to be protected from this fever as they have been taking care of us and I am concerned about them.

Warm regards and prayers,

S
