7/23/01________________________________________________________

God has turned my life (and my family's lives) so far around. There was a time we felt hopeless, and our lives were overcome with poverty, pain and suffering. God opened doors, blessed abundantly, and kept us through it all. I have recently graduated law school, and am sitting for the bar exam in two states.

7/5/01 Please continue to pray for Di, just when things seem to improve she relapses. She is full of anger in life among the panic, anxiety etc. I am giving her space but it is not moving along.  Pray that all her anxiety,
depression and anger be relieved and she return home to build our marriage in Christ. This is my promise to God. It is a spiritual problem that is out of man's hands. Only the almighty God can solve this.          Your brother in Christ,                                                                          Doug

7/7/01  ANSWER TO PRAYER: Di told me she loves me, and believes all her problems are being solved by a strong faith in God, and Jesus in her heart.  Her panic, depression and anxiety have subsided.  She has returned to Christ. Your prayers and God's work have performed a miracle. Satan is being defeated.                                                                 7/9/01: My miracle is complete, praise God, We found a church family, she has agreed to move home, and we are going to build our marriage in Christ.  We are going on a trip to the East coast to get away together. God bless all who have prayed. I won't forget my promise to God or my obligation to The Prayer Foundation .
Your brother in Christ,

6/23/01 I am losing a little weight, and that is great.  Also the depression is getting a tiny bit better!  God is drawing me closer to him through all this and I pray He is doing the same for Kevin. Praise God! I know He will come through for us!                                                                 Kimberly ____________________________________________________________

6/23/01 A couple weeks ago I sent an E-mail and asked you to pray for me in regard to my long term disability.  I would like for you to know that I received a letter yesterday telling me that the decision had been in my favor and everything would be okay.  I want to first thank my Lord and Master for keeping me in the hollow of his hands and blessing me with this answer of prayer.  Next I want everyone to know just how much I appreciate you for taking your time to pray for me and to keep praying for me until an answer came through.  I know God will bless every one of you in a very special way.  Thank you from the bottom of my heart for you and your prayers.  God Bless and keep you.                             Margie

6/17/01 URGENT: A friend of mine took their six year old daughter to the doctor on Thursday for headaches. They found a large tumor on her brain. She has to have emergency surgery on Tuesday  6-19-01.  She has only been given a 50% chance of surviving the surgery and then only five years max to live. please pray for her.  I know miracles happen. She is only six years old, her name is Stephanie.

6/21/01 ANSWER TO PRAYER: Just wanted to let you know a miracle has occurred. Stephanie's brain tumor was removed and to their amazement it was not cancerous.  They told them there was only a 1 percent chance of this happening. PRAISE THE LORD!!!!!!  She will be removed from ICU tomorrow. she is already up and alert and aware of her surroundings!!!

6/13/01 I wrote a couple of months ago to put my brother Domenic's name on your prayer line.  He had, just days before, been diagnosed with stage 4 small type cancer.  His body was filled with deadly tumors and hospital personal felt he would not make the week end. There were so many large tumors in his brain that he was unaware of what was going on.  We asked for aggressive RX.. We knew we needed a miracle. They did Radiation and Chemo.   We also got the gift of the heavens. Everyone Prayed!!!!  He came home about two weeks ago and his MRI yesterday shows an 85-90% shrinkage of the tumors in his brain.  He will still need more chemo etc. There is no doubt in my mind that Jesus carried my brother through this tough time.  Praise God! Thank you Jesus.
Thanks to all of you, too, for your prayers.
Carol

6/7/01 Thanks for praying for my Aunt.  She went home from the hospital this past Monday, after 45 days in the hospital.  They told her when she first came in they only gave her a 5% chance to live.  ____________________________________________________________

6/6/01 Praise his holy name, Lord we praise you, you are so wonderful and awesome, and we thank you again that you always answer our prayers.  I asked my brothers and sisters to pray with me for some clear directions and glory to God; as always he answered.  I sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kind letters and words of encouragement.  I thank you and I love you for you've been a family to me.                                                                                                              N.  ____________________________________________________________

6/3/01 Just arrived home, the surgery I was talking about lately was finished.  Thank you for your prayers.  During the surgery itself I didn't feel any anxiety.  I received much mail from friends.  Even my letter to the Pope was answered (thanks for your prayers).  My friend passed his law exam (thanks also). ____________________________________________________________

4/30/01 URGENT: Hello.  My name is Caroline.  My father is going to have open-heart surgery this Thursday.  Would you please say a prayer for him?  I just cannot imagine life without him.  He has been the greatest dad that anyone could ever ask for.  We've been through some tough times together.  My mother left us back in 1991.  It was a hard time.  Us kids would  rebel and take our anger out on him for her leaving.  I myself always ran away when I just couldn't take the pressure anymore.  But my dad never gave up on us.  He continued to work to put us through Catholic high school.  I am now 27 years old.  I just need extra prayers for him to make it through this ordeal.  I really appreciate your help.

Thank you so much.                                                                                      Love,                                                                                                        Caroline
                                                                                                                             5/2/01 ANSWER TO  PRAYER:  Dear Monk Preston & Family,
I want to thank everyone from the bottom of my heart for your gracious prayers.  My dad is doing fine now.  He went to the hospital today to get a catheterization done to clear up his arteries.  Now the doctors said that he does not need the open-heart surgery tomorrow!!  THANK GOD!!!!!  He is a miracle worker!!!   Today was a total blessing.  Now my dad has to just recover from today's minor surgery.  I'm sure that'll go well, too.  He is a very strong person.  Again, I want to thank all of you for your love and support.  I love you.
Sincerely,
Caroline

 First of all, thanks for all the prayers.  Friday night almost ended 12 years of a devoted relationship. We had actually decided to call it quits, at least that's what she said she wanted.  With everybody's prayers, we are now going to try to work things out again.   Thanks so much for all the prayer support. ____________________________________________________________

12/4/00 URGENT: Please pray for my niece, Allison, she is only five years old.  A rock came through the windshield of the car she was riding in and struck her in the eye.                                                                           Tom (Washington State)  

3/6/01 ANSWER TO PRAYER:  (My niece) Allison got to go home at Christmastime.  The Doctors did not think she would regain mental awareness and physical ability, that her mind was gone.  THEY THOUGHT WRONG!   Allison is 90% back to normal. She has learned to walk, and talk, and eat on her own again.  She still needs some work with talking, but as far as we are concerned she is doing wonderful.  I truly think God has his eye on Allison. She is a wonderful person and we are all so glad that we can share our lives with her.  I wanted to thank you for all your prayers.  At this point the Doctors have given Allison a clean bill of health.                                                                                  Tom (Washington State) ____________________________________________________________
