I am writing you today to ask a huge favor. My husband and I decided several years ago to adopt from Korea. Because my husband was adopted from Korea through Holt International 34 years ago we knew exactly what agency we wanted to use. We fell in love with a beautiful little girl on the "child is waiting" list. After reading her medical info we ask to have the little girl we now call Ally placed in our home. Ally has Plagiocephaly. We are told her prognosis is very good, but she may have to have surgery to relieve pressure on her brain before she is two years old. Everything was perfect! We finely had our placement and we filled out all the paper work. We were getting ready to bring home a little girl that would bring our entire family so much joy. Somehow some paperwork was misplaced. At the end of June, I received a phone call from Officer Angie Harris with the US Immigration Services. Officer Harris stated that she did not have all the paperwork to approve Ally's I-600. Because she had already made a decision to deny the case she said it would be $585 to reopen the case and that I would also have to fill out an I-290B form. I gladly filled out the form and sent the money. That was at the end of June and unfortunately we still do not have a decision from USIS or an I-600 form. We are hard working people who just want the opportunity to work and raise our family. Please keep our little girl in your prayers.

Thanks,
Angie, Justin, Tevin, and baby Ally

This request comes from a very special friend in Calif. Please send it along to any prayer partners you may have. Thank you. Jeanne

Hi,

Victor was notified yesterday that "if he wants to see Kelly (his 48 yr old daughter) alive he needs to get up to Sudbury (Ontario, Canada) very soon". She is in the final stages of ovarian cancer. Several months ago she had surgery to have a vertebrae removed. At that time the surgeons said that the surgery was successful, however her cancer was very aggressive and that they were not able to get it all. Her Mother said that Kelly is disoriented and she feels that the cancer may have spread to her brain. Kelly has been taken off of chemo and for a short time was finding relief in a spray of medical marajuana. However that is no longer helping her. She is at the hospital today in order to be "rehydrated". This is necessary as she loses her fluids due to vomiting. Her quality of life has been miserable for so long. It is a tragedy not only for Kelly, for her boys John (17) and Billy (16), and their Father Bill.

Victor is currently getting his things together and planning on driving there as he will need a car and rentals are very expensive. Normally it is at least a 4 day drive, but I know my "road warrior" and am sure that he will push it. Please pray for travel mercies, and of course for Kelly's salvation.

Victor will be gone for 2 - 3 weeks as he has a nephew that is getting married in Toronto the first week of August and plans to attend the wedding.

Normally I would accompany him, however we feel that it is best for me to stay here so that I can take care of the house, pets, and Grandchildren.

Blessings,

Judy

I would very much appreciate prayer for a biopsy I am undergoing this coming Thursday at 10:30 AM. A couple of enlarged lymph nodes showed up on a routine mammogram, and also on the follow-up ultrasound/ diagnostic mammogram. One of the reasons for this email is to share with important folks in my life that I have unloaded the fear and dread that once plagued me. Most of you got a similar email a few months ago before I underwent the 2 eye surgeries, and in the email, I shared my fear and panic regarding my failing eyesight (I have increased pressure issues, also) and the surgeries. This fear and dread has been reduced 99 % since BEFORE the 2nd surgury, due in large part to prayer, I believe. I love & appreciate my family and friends more than I can say in an email- GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS!!!

My husband was in a ATV accident. The day his doctor told him he could return to work he was handed his pink slip. After 26 years he was let go. He found a new job but after 3 months he had to quit, he is a social worker and the job he found had him making unethical decisions concerning the elderly. Please pray.

EARTHQUAKE RELIEF UPDATES

3-2-10

I have been wanting to send an update to you all on the project we are
working on…but I wanted to wait until we had some of the important
details ironed out. The thing is, working out those details has turned
out to be a longer and much more difficult process than we had
anticipated. To be honest, we are very discouraged right now. That is
why I’m writing to you tonight. We really need your prayers.

When we came into Haiti after the earthquake, we brought in a medical
team because the most immediate need here was for medical care. After
our team left, we continued to work at the hospital, but only while we
considered the many options for where to go from there. We want to use
the resources we have been entrusted with in a wise and purposeful
way, to make the most difference for the most people possible. As we
evaluated the many needs in Haiti, and the many possible uses for our
time and money, we decided to focus on a permanent housing project.
Right now, everyone seems to be focused on tents as the solution to
the problem for the thousands of homeless here. Tents are good and can
help to meet the need for immediate shelter and protection from the
rainy season…but they are a very temporary solution. Not only will
they last only a few months in the conditions in Haiti, but rainy
season is immediately followed by hurricane season…and a tent will not
provide much protection from a hurricane. We want to invest our
resources in a more long-term solution, so that is why we decided to
take on a permanent housing project.

Our idea is to build a small community with safe, durable houses.
Looking at the resources we currently have, and additional funds we
anticipate we can raise for this project, we decided to start small—20
to 25 houses. Then if more resources become available, we can expand
the project and build as many homes as we have capabilities for. Our
target population is not just those who have lost everything and have
no means to rebuild, but within that broad population, it is more
specifically those that we feel are most vulnerable during this
time—the newly handicapped, pregnant women, and women with newborns.
We know that in the big-picture scope of things, 25 houses is not
much…but to those 25 families, it would be everything. We feel that it
is our responsibility to do what we can with what we have, even if it
doesn’t seem like much.

It would be very difficult to acquire land within Port-au-Prince, so
the area we have chosen for this project is Leogane, a town of 200,000
people. Leogane is about 15 miles west of Port-au-Prince and was at
the epicenter of the earthquake. The UN estimates that the town is 90%
destroyed. We moved out to Leogane last week and set up our tent on a
small compound where a couple other organizations are staying. The
past 2 weeks have been filled with meetings, exploring possibilities,
and more meetings. In trying to attain land for the project, and form
a partnership with an organization that has expertise in
house-building, we have gone down many paths and had many
conversations. There have been times where we thought things were
falling into place and we were making progress…only to be disappointed
later. We have been dealing with dishonesty, corruption, greed, and a
lot of frustration. We know Haiti well enough to know that it is very
difficult to get anything accomplished here, and especially if you
want to do something well and do it in the right way…but even coming
into it knowing that, we are feeling overwhelmed by the many obstacles
we have faced and still face if we want to go ahead with this project.

That is where your prayers come in. We need wisdom to know if this is
what we should be investing our time in, or if there is something else
that would be a better use of our resources. A group of professional
contractors from the U.S. told us today that we are too young and our
project is too ambitious. We need discernment to know if that is God’s
way of telling us to go a different direction…or if that is simply
discouragement that needs to be overcome. If the housing project is
what God wants us to do, then we need open doors and some
relationships that we can trust. We need renewed strength, clear
minds, and focused energy. We are asking you to please pray for us and
with us. We want to be good stewards of the funds that have been
entrusted to us, and we want to help meet some of the many, many needs
we are surrounded by here every day.

I know that many of you have been praying for us consistently over the
past 6 weeks, and just knowing that is a huge encouragement to us.
Please keep it up! Thank you so much for your continued support. We
couldn’t do this without all of you.

Thank you,
Heather

Shades of Blue, I have walked the road of Emma and Brad and I have asked Gods forgiveness for those mistakes but I am left with a feeling after the book that there is still something that God wants me to do only I am not sure what it is. Is it forgiveness towards others or myself from past mistakes?

My daughter is a college student and has recently gone through a relationship breakup - it was a 4-year relationship and she has taken it very hard. I don't know if it God's will for them to get back together but she is very confused. She has recently started communicating and spending time with a young man that does not live a very Godly lifestyle (drinking all of the time, swearing, etc.). Pray that God leads her in the direction that He wants her to go and give her eyes to clearly see this. Thank you so much! :)

I know we are doing the right thing by our son, but it still hurts very badly. I miss his voice, his smile and his hugs. He is really involved in our church back home. Kings Pasture Community Church. Jesse is a youth leader in the Vision group. He plans on being a youth minister when he graduates. Before we left our pastor called us and the family he is staying with up front and prayed for us. I know he is being watched and loved, but again it still hurts. I know without a shadow of doubt he is in the right place. I just ask that God watch over my son and wrap his arms around Jesse, please keep him safe.

Second we are struggling financially due to our house not selling back home. Trying to keep up with the mortgage, rent and sending Jesse money is very tight right now. I ask that the Lord please give us the wisdom that we need to keep going.

Hi Karen. Thank you for sharing your story about your brother. When you were in louisville you prayed with me for my son for a similar story. Today he admitted to me that yesterday he took 800 mg ibuprophen followed by medrol then ultram later oxycodone and finally ambien. He took the ambien because he was so hyped from all the other meds that he couldn't sleep. However even after the ambien he was agitated the he was up all night. I know he has pain issues but he gets angry with me when I try to talk to him about the dangers. His answer is that he is only doing what the Dr told him to do but at this rate I fear my 29 year old son won't reach 30. I shared the DVD of your brothers story but he is still in denial that he has a problem. He has been on narcotic pain meds of one kind or another for over 3 years.

Hello. I have read one of your books (like dandelion dust) and it had inspired me to read more. I'm reading Even Now presently and I've been blessed. I thank God for using u to write such books. I also love to write but I've not been motivated to really write something. I would like to humbly ask if you could give me tips on how to write better and more consistently. I also love the way you wrote your dedication, about the way you wrote about your family. It inspired me to pray that God will help me to be a caring, loving and positively influential mother. It's a honor writing you this. PRAISE- Nigeria

I am very sick and due to be having major surgery soon which is going to be a long recovery ahead and I am honestly very scared. I have my three kids wo have been through so much this year and it hurts me so deep that I am a complete failure as a mother. We have lost so much and we try to rebuild and it seems that I just cant get to where we need to be because we have one hurdle after another thrown at us. My kids deserve a Christmas and I have nothing. I dont even have any christmas decorations, Last year we truly lost everything we owned pretty much due to situations beyond our control and my kids deserve so much better than what I can do for them, I am very very depressed and sick snd I need prayers for us because I am falling apart here. We are in need of any Christmas Decorations. I am in need of a wheelchair because after my surgery I am going to be needing one. And most of all any kind of help for my kids for Christmas because we truly have nothing. And above all your thoughts and prayers. We just moved here recently and I dont know anyone. I don't have any friends or people I am close to. When you are sick all the time and stay at home its very hard to meet people and I have been so sick and unable to do the things most can do that they take for granted.

I am just a small voice who is trying to be obedient to God. This election has been heavy on my heart. God gave me the idea to reach out to my brothers and sisters in Christ and have us lay hands on the doors where voters go in and out of to vote. The night before the election would be ideal. Praying for all the machines to work properly, there would be no fraud and if there was it would be brought to light, that everything would run smoothly and mostly that the people who are voting would clearly see and not be deceived as to whom the candidate is that would align himself with the will of God. Please also pray:
2 Chronicles 7:14 (NIV) if my people, who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. I thought it would be amazing if all the churches could have this verse on their church sign. Wouldn't that be awesome if everyone noticed the same message and it drew people to the Lord!!!!???? Praise your name Lord Jesus!
With time being precious please pass this on to other churches and organizations who are prayer warriors. Thank you and God Bless you and America!!!!
Seeing this come together will be so amazing to see that just one person working together with the body of Christ can make a difference.

Update On Tye Blanton

October 17, 2008
From the beginning, little Tye Blanton has fought to be here. He was born premature with a heart condition. His mother Micheala says she and her late husband were excited about his arrival because they were told they would never have children. “I had always imagined growing old with Shawn. Things happened very quickly for us. We knew it was meant to be.”

Then on June 17th, Tye’s life took another tragic turn.

Micheala says, “Tye is a lot like shawn.”

Just weeks after he came into this world his father was taken. 25-year-old trooper Shawn Blanton was shot to death after he stopped a motorist on Interstate 40near Canton. Trooper Blanton died in the same hospital his son was in fighting for his life.

Michaela says, “I dropped to my knees in the middle of the NICU, and of course, was screaming at the top of my lungs.”

Despite the tragedy, the family rallied. Michaela decided to send her son to Duke University Medical Center to have surgery on his heart. He seemed to be doing better, and two months after he was born, his mother was finally able to hold him. Earlier this week, as things seemed to be looking up little Tye was brought back to mission hospitals in Asheville.

“ I will understand if Shawn needs him more than I do. to me the only way Tye would be taken away is if Shawn needs him more than I do.”

Early this morning, Tye Blanton passed away. It seems his dad did need him after all.



May you be blessed by the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

Karen,
Thank you so much for this offer. I am anxiously waiting for the arrival of Sunset. After reading the Baxter family series, I feel like they are my friends. I cannot tell you how much I have enjoyed reading these books.

I have always wanted you to know how much your Life Changing Fiction has affected my life. When I started to read your books, I realized that your characters had such a strong faith and a real relationship with the Lord. I wanted so badly to have that for myself. I have always believed in God and as a teenager, I accepted Christ as my Savior. My parents did not attend church; therefore, I did not know God's Word. I never studied the Bible or even prayed. I just knew that God was real and that He loved me. My closets friend in high school was a Christian and her parents took her to church regularly. They shared their faith with me and took me to church occasionally. That is where I welcomed Jesus into my heart. Unfortunately, I did not really know what that meant and after a few years, my friend and I grew apart and my life changed. I made bad decisions and got in a lot of trouble.
When I was about 23 years old, my cousin gave me your One Tuesday Morning book, which was my first book of yours. I loved it. Once I started reading your books, I didn't stop. Between my cousin and I, we bought every book you have written. I was so upset when that came to a halt. (I read very quickly and had to wait for your next book) When I no longer had your stories in my head, I felt empty. That is when I realized why I loved them so much- Your stories made me feel closer to God. I learned so much form your characters about how to praise the Lord and to pray and believe. When I was 28 years old, I came to a crossroad in my life. I had a decision to make. I could continue to live the way I was until the bitter end, or I could put my faith and trust in Christ. God has provided so much for me since that first day I got down on the floor and begged him to save me. I started going to church and reading the Bible. I joined small groups at my church- met with other Christian mothers and learned so much from them. Since then, God has surrounded me with good people and given me a strong faith. He has changed my heart. It is amazing how strong I have become with God in my life. I now have a great job, a wonderful church family and my very own relationship with Christ. He has provided me with a safe home, away from harm, which I share with my two daughters and my parents.
I can't thank you enough for using the talent God has given you to write these fabulous stories. You are my hero Karen Kingsbury!!!!
