I need at least enough cash to get me caught up -- and, hopefully, a little bit ahead with my basic expenses, and I'm also hoping to have some of those expenses to include getting my minivan working again (not to mention plated and insured) and for me to remain able to drive safely for at least the next 30 years. Also, need to get "THE BIG PROJECT" grand-opened a.s.a.p.

Several other people I know are needing heavy-duty prayer for a number of reasons with most of those reasons being health and finances.

Thank you for lifting these needs up in prayer.

Please pray with me for my cousins (Phil, Sandy, and Doug) who are going through significant health issues this time (Phil the most seriously-ill; Sandy, his wife and one of his caregivers, who has her own set of health issues; and Doug, their son, who is healthy enough but holds the role of caregiver along with his day job). On top of everything else, their sweet-natured, 8 year old Boston Terrier, Nala Lynn, just crossed over on November 13 -- two days after Phil called from the hospital to report that he's dealing with an antibiotic-resistant infection. It's now November 17 -- the 100th anniversary of the birth of Phil's mom (my Aunt Ruby).

I now have the Internet at home, for which I'm very thankful. What I need most now when it comes to what I'm lacking is for my minivan to finally be repaired, insured, and with a current license plate -- plus a little extra spending cash to make it easier to continue to get back on my feet again.

Please pray for my former next-door neighbor, Betty, along with her family, as they're going through some challenging times related to a move to another state they recently made. Pray for them to stay strong in their faith and morale and that they'll get the financial and medical help they're needing now.

Please pray for a wonderful angel named Scotty who has been going through some serious health problems and still isn't out of the woods! I hope he's feeling great enough to enjoy some ice cream, cake, and other goodies on his birthday coming up on April 14. He'll be 44, but he both looks and acts much younger -- I'm talking about looking like a teenager and being in his development a combination of baby and toddler. Even though he's never been to college and went through high school in a special education program, he has so much to teach people about what life is all about!!!

If it's God's will, I need my minivan fixed this week along with doing what I can to care for a couple of friends especially: Betty and Jane.

Please pray with me for the relocation of my keychain! Thanks!
