I could really use prayer support tomorrow - I find that I have 4 services to take an a Messy Church that I must be at...and I am at a low ebb physically, emotionally and spiritually. Thank you.
Lord, help...
Thanking Mary and Telepath for their ministries of gathering and focussing, and paring for all who have posted, all who cannot or who dare not ask. Lord, in your mercy, hear our prayer.

Please will you pray for my friend J, one of the best human beings I know. He was diagnosed two days ago with a brain tumour, and is being operated on on Monday. Please pray for strength and faith for him, and for the best possible outcome from the operation. And please pray for his wife as well.
Thank you, all. I am so glad I can ask here.

A sort of minor request in the grand scheme of things, but if people could spare a few prayers. I've just taken in my late mother's cat Sybil, since her house is going to be sold soon. My brother, who has been living there with the cat, feels awful about having to give her up but for the time being he's going to be living on our cousin's sofa so he can't take her. Please pray that Sybil should easily integrate with my three cats, and please pray for my brother, that he should feel better about having to give her up.
Prayer for all here.

Can I ask prayers for D & M please?
They moved to France a few years ago. M had a heart condition, and got very frustrated with the French health system. This drove them to sell up and return to the UK last autumn. I heard tonight that M went into a UK hospital to 'get sorted out', and has died of a hospital acquired infection.
Tomorrow morning D gets the keys to the new home they had bought after months lodging with relatives - she had loved France and didn't really want to leave, and now is having to move into the UK home M had wanted, but to live there alone. She has asked for prayers.
What a mess.

For Nicolemrw's Sybil to integrate beautifully and for her brother to be reassured.
For Oferyas' M to be comforted at the loss of D.
Usual employment and good-habit stuff for me please. In thanks for a weekend well spent (at least I think it was)

Much Yay! for AuntieD and PaulW. Thank you God for the many, many answered prayers that have brought them this far.
Still waiting for my grandfather's funeral which will not take place until the 9th of June. We think my grandmother, J, has just about grasped what has happened but it's wearing on her sons and daughters-in-law (S, W, P & H) to have to tell her over and over again that her husband has died. Grant them all peace, Lord.

For mini doris to arrive safely.
For Golden Key's dentistry.
For Grandfather Pain's funeral. For Grandmother Pain to grasp what's happened. For S, W, P and H.
For a swift and sound resolution to the troubles in Syria, especially those affected by the massacre at Houla.
For Yam-uk's J, for healing.
For Mrs Sioni's workplace.
For those affected by the earthquakes in Italy.
For saysay, for guidance and that certain things go smoothly and actually work out.
For R. And for J's only remaining relative at J's funeral tomorrow. Neither the Telemum nor I will attend. The Telemum is doing something else (that sounds a bit hazardous from what I understand - so, for her safety). I will be attending the memorial service of V.'s mother, so, please especially pray for R. And for. V.
For, you guessed it, funding and continuous employment for me. For me to overcome some of my bad habits and fix a creeping problem. Longstanding ambitions, while I'm at it. And please may I do an excellent job tomorrow morning.
For K.'s employment and for her morale.
For J.'s business venture.

I'm getting scanned in the morning (30 May) and my prayer is that they will find that the little dots of melanoma are gone in the wake of the therapy. I will know the news at my next meeting with the oncologist on 11 June.
I give thanks that despite the seriousness of what i have had, i have not had, unlike most people, any unpleasant symptoms -- how extraordinarily blessed i've been! And i pray especially for other shipmates and their loved ones who i know have had a lot harder struggle in dealing with various forms of cancer than i've been having to do. And on top of that, i give thanks that this therapy -- for what up now has been a fast-moving cancer with a low survival rate -- became available just mere months before my diagnosis! Thank you God, thank You, and may i use however much useful life is ahead of me in a way that best makes use of the many blessings You have given me!
On a much less serious level, but one which has a big impact on my productivity is that all of a sudden i am unable to use the new rather expensive computer that i recently was able to purchase and which has been a big help to me and i pray that problem is only minor and can be quickly fixed.

I'd like prayers for today as I've to meetings where I used to work.
The first is at 11am and is a "fact finding" meeting regarding my grievance about the way I was treated by some members of staff.
The second is at 2.30pm and is my appeal against the termination of my contract due to ill health.
I haven't slept at all last night and am already starting to feel sick.

I'm appealing against my annual preformance report. It isn't a bad assessment, but it's lower than before, is against my immediate manager's assessment and was set where it was because of marking quotas handed down from on high. It will be a distraction from the day job for a week or two, so I hope it doesn't affect my performance this year!
for those considering my appeal, some of whom put me in the position to do so.
