Rachel J. - Health/upcoming Surgery

Please keep me in your prayers. Days like today, Pacific Northwest weather is not my friend. My body is fighting me wicked hard today. Been sick the previous 2 days and then today the weather triggered my arthritis which in turn upset the Fybro and the Autoimmune. I made it to the office, but each tasks feels like an uphill battle. I also need to stay healthy for a hopeful knee replacement in possibly 3 weeks. Please pray extra hard that the replacement happens near or on the projected date of June 10th.

My wife just had a fainting spell and was taken to the hospital.  We are awaiting word on what happened. Prayers appreciated.

Pray for me as I go to my lasr Ocukar Oncologist appointment in Denver. It is hard to think about leaving such knowledgeable people on October Melanoma.

Tomorrow is a big day for me and I sure would love to be uplifted in prayer. 🙏🏻 

I go in to surgery @ 6am for a hysterectomy….having had endometriosis for my entire adult life, it is such a relief to think the day where I am pain free is actually coming to fruition. 

It almost feels like I am winning a battle that has gone on for AGES!

Steve S. Update

“Remember, our Message is not about ourselves; we proclaim Jesus Christ, the Master.”  “It started when God said, ‘Light up the darkness!’ and our lives filled up with light as we saw and understood God in the face of Christ, all bright and beautiful.”  2 Cor. 4:5-6, The Message.    “We carry this precious Message around in the unadorned clay pots of our ordinary lives… We’ve been surrounded and battered by troubles, but we’re not demoralized…We’ve been thrown down, but we haven’t broken,”  2 Cor. 4:7-9 (selected), The Message. Three months ago, we reported that we were well in the Spirit but were having a bit of a setback physically. The news we received was a lot to absorb all at one time, BUT God was so faithful and so present to us through this time. You prayed – God answered. We have many answered prayers to report.   Answer #1. Anne underwent a double mastectomy on February 14, which was completely successful. The outlook for cancer-free living for the rest of her life is excellent.   Answer #2. Our son, Jason, completed immunotherapy prior to having surgery on March 12 to remove a malignant tumor in his colon. He has since been pronounced cancer-free.    Answer #3. Our daughter, Amy, had help taking care of us both for a couple weeks when Anne’s sister flew down from northern Virginia to assist in our care.    Answer #4. The above caption, “…surrounded and battered, but not demoralized…thrown down, but not broken,”describes my journey up to this point. I was able to quit wearing my sling two months ago but I’m still undergoing physical therapy to rehabilitate my surgically repaired shoulder. Most days the pain is constant and intense. However, I do detect a slight but definite and favorable turn for the better.    I just had a follow up visit with my surgeon this morning. He told me that I was not quite halfway through the recovery phase. He stressed that I needed to be patient because the recovery is slow. Then he ordered six more weeks of physical therapy, with more likely to come. The result is I will not be able to travel to Guam and Micronesia for the rest of the year. And because of the constant pain, it’s also been difficult for me to work at my laptop and properly coordinate all the activity and communication needed with key church leaders, disciples, and other Liebenzell missionaries in Micronesia and the Pacific Rim.    Answer #5. God has graciously called a veteran missionary out of retirement to travel to Micronesia for me this year and with me next year. Bill Schuit has spent numerous years in Micronesia and knows the islands well. I am extremely grateful for Bill’s assistance for the next couple of years. He is a true and valued friend and brother in the Lord.    Meanwhile, Anne and I have still been able to continue the online Zoom training we do with stateside Micronesians every Saturday. Keep praying for that too.   We remain humbled to “carry this precious Message” with the support of such a faithful team. We thank God for you and your prayers, support, love, and concern.    In the Name of Jesus Christ, the Master,   Steve and Anne 2003 Crestview Dr. Columbia, TN 38401 Copyright © 2025 Liebenzell Mission USA, All rights reserved.
