Pray for Terry & Brenda Martin (Niverville, MB), in their ministry with the Rising Above Band. They have a number of singing engagements in December and Brenda is experiencing a lot of sciatic nerve pain. Please pray for relief from the pain and healing.
Pray for Daren George (Smithers, BC) as he plans a Rising Above Conference in Witset, BC in April 2024. Pray as Daren continues to deal with many deaths while counselling others and balancing requests for workshops. Pray for his health and that the doctors would find the cause of his dizziness.
