Rob and I will be praying for these precious people and I will repost to ask others to pray, too. Thanks, Ali for allowing us to be involved with God's work in healing Marietou, Alpha, Fodi and Bala!
Thank you for letting me know, and let them know that I have been and will continue to pray! Alpha told Derek at his pre-op visit prior to the last big surgery "I guess I won't be playing cards tomorrow" - we have been praying that he might be playing soon. Mariatou is my personal hero along with her most amazing caregiver - please give them a hug for me. And Fodi - we have shared his alphabet learning and pecious smile with so many. Bala was delayed by malaria but is hopefully strong now? Love to all!!
Please let them know that prayers will be coming to them from New York City! Please also tell the handsome gentleman in the first photo that he has BEAUTIFUL and expressive eyes! Tell the girl in the second photo that her pink flower is very lovely and something little girls in New York, wear, too!
Just saw this link on Amal Landis' facebook page, and am praying! Though I don't know you personally, Ali, I think my husband Jon knew you via Iroquoina, and we so enjoyed watching the 60 Minutes segment on Mercy Ships a few weeks ago. I am praying for this special request today, and please know that we will continue to pray for the ministry of Mercy Ships in general! God bless!
I am praying in North Dakota! I also had my 2 year old daughter look at the pictures and pray with me. After answering a few 2-year-old "Why's" to the best of my ability and praying with her, she said "Jesus help you!" Bala's name is stuck in my brain- so I think Bala will be prayed for all day!
