Another wonderful evening.  It has been a good day (outside of my Rangers losing). 

Great news from OH regarding the Dallas Conference.  Looking forward to it.

Tonight is my Friday.  I hope to catch up on some of my TV time this holiday weekend, but.....  Monday is an afternoon baseball game.  I will have to get practically no sleep, as the gates open at 10AM.  They will be playing the Yankees.  There is a pregame concert at 11AM.  I will have to nap when I get home from the game.

Prayer requests are listed below.

I do ask that you keep me updated on requests.  Often.  Please. 

Also, please feel free to just visit here.  Tell us about how your day went.  Your successes.  Your failures.  Your fun.  Whatever.  When I post this thread, I do not have access to any chat programs, so this sometimes substitute as that vessel for me.

Continue to keep your thoughts and prayers for the members of our Armed Forces serving around the world, especially during this time of increased awareness.  Please thank God for these men and women every day.  In addition, please keep the wives and family members in your thoughts.

PEOPLE SEEKING EMPLOYMENT:

Avis
James - Phyllis' "friend"
Jennifer
- (Cruise Director Julie)
Nina

Those who are not yet unemployed, but layoffs are looming

Anne -(Lalocaweta) - Please pray for her as she undergoes treatment for a medical problem she is facing.

Cindy Mc - a coworker has a 5 yr old son who was diagnosed at 3 with Metastatic Retinoblastoma.  He lost his right eye, but through chemo and radiation it was thought the cancer was gone.  It is back and spreading in his brain.
  There is no cure and they are treating him with some oral Chemo medication right now. I am just asking that you pray for Isaac Xavuer Vasques-Grimmett. He is a precious little boy who has been through a whole lot of difficult times in his 5 short years. We are praying for a miracle but if we can't get that... For God's mercy and grace to keep this precious little boy and his family from suffering too much. Update:  Isaac is on his way to St Jude's to try something.  Please continiue prayers.

Dana - requests prayer for her family.

Debra - has been put on no work by doctor due to memory loss that is related to recent hospitalization.  Also, with the no work comes less pay.  Prayers for the financial side of the situation.

Gina J. - Pray for her 6 year old Marina, diagnosed with a terminal illness at age 2.
 She has improved, but still needs our prayers.  Pray for this brave little girl.

Janet (1divaatheart) says her husband's tumor is shrinking (Praise God!).  She does need prayer for herself and her family, as her father has entered hospice care due to his cancer and her mother has been hospitalized for her Altheimerz.

Karen (Misty750342002) - A friend of Karen's from work (who is like a son to her), Dustin Murphy, is 24 years old and has been diagnosed with Hodgkins Disease.

Prplecat asks prayer for her health battles as well as the family's move to Wichita Falls.

Vicki V.  - husband Patrick continues to have health problems.  Update on Patrick.  His most recent diagnosis from the neurologist is Ataxia and Neuropathy of the left side.  Which basically means he has virtually no feeling in his left leg and foot - probably the results of both a broken femur (more than 30 years ago) and his more recent heart and lung surgeries and the bed confinement from all of those. 

Vanessa (Butterfly Reborn) - requests prayer for her family.  There were no specifics, but I am sure the Lord knows.

Vanessa - We have all followed the story of Elizabeth.  Here is her Caringbridge page:

Hi George;

Another day of what's becoming the "same old, same old". Sent out resumes. Worked out. The only variation is one of the new local restaurants threw a "Paella Party" and served free paella from 6-9pm so we gathered a few friends and went to that. It was a good time.

I'm really struggling with depression and feeling hopeless this week. I knew going into it that this week and next would be slow because of the holiday, but I'm just not nearly patient enough to cope with it well.

I'll be around for a bit. Prayers for all who need them.
Blessings, Jennifer

Jennifer, I want to thank you for dropping by each night.  I look forward to your report, because I know one day soon it is going to be "I am no longer looking for a job, now I am looking for some muscle to help us move."

Prayers continue.



GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!

Jennifer - are you LinkedIn?  I've been getting a huge number of contacts for job opportunities through that site, our company filed Chapter 11 and is selling off business units and the sharks are out!

www.linkedin.com

I've found it to be a great networking site!

Jodie;

Yes, I've been on LinkedIn for years. I rarely find any postings there that aren't available already through Monster or indeed. But I'll keep checking.
Blessings, Jennifer

Evening George,

Could you please add me to the unemployed prayer request section...  I will be closing down our office this next month.  I've been expecting it, just didn't want to happen, it's been an unpleasant roller coaster ride the last 8 months.  Unfortunately I have been on a contract basis for the last year, so there are no unemployment benefits to draw from.

Prayers for all of the spoken and unspoken requests.  Special healing prayers for our kids, Elizabeth Grace and Isacc.  Special prayers for those that are hurting tonight for whatever reason.  Blessings to all.

Hey George -

All is well in KINGdom.  Raymond had his one week follow up for his stint placement yesterday and got the "all clear".  Thanks for keeping him on the list all week.
