Prayer Request

Please pray for safe travels for Daniel and John Bozeman as they return home today from Louisiana.  Debra sent the message below and asked for prayers for them and thanks to everyone for their prayers and well wishes during this difficult time after her losing her brother.  Please also continue to hold Debra and her family in your prayers as they grieve the loss of their loved one.  Thank you.

Dan and John are headed home today,  I'm staying behind to help clear out my brothers things. Please ask the church to pray for safe travelling for them. Thank for everyone for their prayers and well wishes. 

Prayer Request

Please be in prayer for Debra Bozeman and her family.  I received Debra’s note below relating to the sudden death of her brother Edward.  Many may recall we have had Edward on our prayer list for a while.  Prayers for travel mercies for Debra and her boys as they leave today for Louisiana and for comfort and peace for the family as they grieve the loss of their loved one. 

Susan would you please let the church know that my brother Edward passed away yesterday. He had a heart attack and he was alone so no one was there to help him. We are really in need of prayer. He was doing so well and was so happy. I'm heading to Louisiana today with the boys we ask for travel mercies.  Thanks Susan



Sad news

From Susan Davis

It is with a very heavy heart and great sadness that I send you this email.  My baby sister, Ketiva Lynch, whom many have prayed for over the past few years, lost her battle with Lupus late this afternoon.  She was rushed to the hospital with a possible heart attack and did not survive.  She was 49 years old and suffered with Lupus for almost 18 years and it just overcame her body and destroyed her organs over time.  She was always so positive and loved her Lord and knew in her heart that He was there with her all the time.  God definitely held her up many times through her struggles, especially during the times she questioned Him as to why her.  Please keep her husband Bill and their daughters Magen, Mallory and McKenzie in your prayers as they grieve this sudden loss of a wife and wonderful mother.  Please keep me and my family in your prayers as well as we support them through this difficult time and also grieve the loss of my baby sister and my children's favorite aunt in the world.  Thank you. 

Answered Prayers

 Answered prayers and message from Pastor April…….

Baby Eric is doing so well the nurses told Miss Judith they believe he will be able to come home this weekend!  God has done it!  The prayers of the faithful are mighty indeed.  The family is so grateful for all of your prayers and encouragement!  They said Eric will be baptized at Hollydale soon!

As your pastor, my heart is full.  What a blessing that God would favor us to allow us to see His miraculous work among us!  Thank you for surrounding Miss Judith with love and care, Hollydale!  You are agents of His love. <3

Prayer Request

Please keep Kylie Parrish’s mom, Farah , in your prayers.  She was taken to the emergency room yesterday and later admitted to the hospital because her blood pressure and oxygen levels dropped and the doctor thinks there is a connection to her other symptoms and wanted some time to try and find the underlying cause for her medical problems, instead of just treating the symptoms.  Please pray for a diagnosis and treatment plan so she can be feeling well again very soon.  Thank you.

Prayer Request

Please keep baby Erick and his mother, Judith, in your prayers.  Many who were at the Mother’s Day service will remember that Ms. Judith won the gift card for having the youngest child.  Baby Erick was born premature and is still at Kennestone Hospital.  They estimate he will be in the incubator for two more week.  He’s gaining some weight, but needs continual prayers.  Ms. Judith needs prayers as well for strength and comfort as she waits for the day baby Erick can be in her arms and at home with his family.  Thank you.

Prayer Request

Please keep my sister, Kevita Lynch, in your prayers.  She was admitted to the hospital yesterday due to fatique, nausea, fever, joint pain and high lactic acid levels and has a possible infection.  As many know, she suffers with Lupus, which is a terrible debilitating disease.  Please pray for comfort, rest and healing.  Thank you.

Prayer Request

Please keep Greg Detweiler, Toni Cox’s brother in your prayers.  On Wednesday, Greg was found unconscious on the sidewalk while out riding his bike and a Good Samaritan found him and called 911.  They couldn’t get a heartbeat and they used the paddles to try and revive him, then rushed him to the hospital.  He is in a medically induced coma in ICU.  They are going to try and remove him from the coma possibly today to check his status.  Please keep Greg, his wife, Toni and their family in your prayers as they go through this difficult situation.  Thank you.

Update on Prayer Request

 Message from Connie regarding Sarah’s surgery……..Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers this morning.  Thank you.

Hi everyone.  Lots has happened in 24 hours.  Mostly good.  Please feel free to share the update with the wonderful folks that have been kindly praying for Sarah and her unborn daughter, Quinn.  Tomorrow at 10:30 they will be removing the hemangioblastoma at the base of Sarah's brain.  While this is still brain surgery, the Neurosurgeon is pretty upbeat about her recovery.  The neonatologists are a bit more worried about Quinn.  They think that she will be fine but for a 23.5 week fetus, it would be a difficult time for the baby if she delivered this early.  We are praying that she doesn’t go into labor tomorrow.  Thanks again. I will update you tomorrow.

Received a prayer request from Shelley Brewster.  Please keep her uncle, Jeff Bachmanin your prayers.  He is currently in Blount County Hospital in TN with a severe lung infection.  They are praying that this will be a road to recovery for him in many ways.  Also, please keep Kellie Bachman in your prayers as she has been sick for about a month.  Shelley indicated they are both very kind people, salt of the earth.  Prayers for healing and comfort for them both.  Thank you.
