Bob L. - Back Pain

Fun fun have a headache my back is just killing me just resting hoping it will help the back but it’s not. Keep me in prayers tired of the back stuff

Amber O. - Schoolwork

I am asking for prayer, it is inevitable, I have to get my hours done (and no season as an officer is ideal) so we might as well just get’er done. This marks the finishing of my third social practice which now starts my field placement for my BSW. This requirement over the next six months is for me to complete 400 hours as an intern, plus any of the schoolwork that goes along with it. This averages to about 17 hours a week, some weeks I can do more, which would allow me to do less during other weeks. I am an anxious person and I’m freaking out. 

Jaylyn's Health Update

Now that she is stable sometime next week, we will move to a Kaiser Neuro facility to start her next step towards recovery. #jaylynstrong #jaylynshealingjourney

Amy M. - Jaylynn’s Update

Day 15 8/19: Today we had a few set backs from our recovery plan. She was suppose to get her EVD (External Ventricular Drain) removed but due to excessive swelling underneath the skull, another CT scan will be done tomorrow to try and figure out the cause. That also pushed back the plans to have the staples removed. But with all of today’s setbacks, we will take the best win of the day. Even though she has the trach, she was weaned off the breathing machine today, and is breathing on her own! YAHHHH!!! Because she is still not coherent/ awake she’s breathing through the trech tube!

So proud of her and all her progress! #Jaylynstrong #jaylynshealingjourney #everydaystronger

Melissa A. - Friend Harold’s Health

Help Harold Fight Liver Failure

Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers,

I never imagined I’d find myself in this situation, but I’ve recently been diagnosed with end-stage (N stage) liver failure—a life-threatening condition that has completely turned my world upside down. This diagnosis has come with overwhelming emotional and physical challenges, and now, mounting medical bills are adding a financial burden I can no longer manage alone.

I’m currently undergoing intensive treatment and frequent hospital visits, with the possibility of a liver transplant looming ahead. Every test, medication, and hospital stay brings hope—but also rising expenses that insurance doesn’t fully cover. The funds raised through this campaign will go directly toward covering my medical bills, hospital stays, treatment costs, and any future procedures necessary to keep me fighting.

I’m reaching out with humility and hope, asking for any support you can give—whether it’s a donation or simply sharing this campaign with others. Every little bit helps and means the world to me and my loved ones. Thank you for standing with me in this battle. Your kindness and generosity are truly a lifeline during this incredibly difficult time.

With gratitude,

Harold “HD” Simon

Randy S. - Pastor’s Health/Peace

Dear friends & family, I’m reaching out with a tender heart today. What I’m about to share is sacred, and I trust you’ll hold it in prayer and love. This isn’t just news, it’s a call for us to stand together, to surround Pastor Dennis and Desa with the presence of Jesus in these precious moments.

I just received a call from Desa about Pastor Dennis. With a heavy heart, I need to share that he’s in the final stages of his journey here on earth. The hospice nurse says it could be just a couple of hours, or maybe a couple of days.

Let’s surround them with the kind of love that heaven recognizes, lifting them up before the throne of grace with compassion, mercy, and faith.

Heavenly Father, we lift up Pastor Dennis and Desa to You right now. We thank You for the life, the love, and the ministry that has touched so many. Wrap them in Your peace that passes all understanding. Let Dennis feel Your presence and hear heaven’s welcome, and let Desa feel the arms of the Comforter around her. We trust You in this sacred moment, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

We declare that Pastor Dennis is surrounded by the love of God, the prayers of the saints, and the peace of Christ that cannot be shaken. Whether in life or in glory, he is in the hands of the Good Shepherd, and those hands never let go.

Pastor Sheryl and I love each and everyone of you. 🙏🏽❤️

Arnulfo’s Family

Please lift up Arnulfo and his family in your prayers. Arnulfo and his wife Cynthia are going through a hard time. They have a baby boy (Alonzo - 9months) who is in Cynthia’s care. May Alonzo continue to grow healthy and in God’s protection.

Amy M. - Update

Todays prayer card day 7: We had a few set backs with her developing pneumonia. But as I was getting ready to leave the hospital (her dad and I switch off staying the night with her) Leaving her is always the hardest part of the day! Her machines started beeping with her oxygen dropping a bit, I paused and waited for the nurse to arrive. While we were still with her the nurse did her hourly stimulant test. I figured Gisella Gonzales and I would stay a few minutes past the visitors hours to see how she react. While doing her stimulation exercises she opened her eyes a bit longer then usual and fluttered her beautiful eyelashes at us. I see you baby girl!!🥰

Every little tiny extra movement, we will take as a WIN! Keep FIGHTING BABY GIRL!!! #jaylynstrong #jaylynshealingjourney #strongereveryday
