Prayer Request

Please see Carole Shelburne’s request for prayers for her brother Chuck and his wife. Both have Covid and her sister-in-law is not expected to live. Pray for answers and miracles to happen for them. Thank you.

Susan please put my brother and sister-in-law in your prayers. I found out last night that they both have covid. My brother has a mild case as he had his shots. But my sister-in-law is not expected to live. Unfortunately she did not take the shots. They both are in their 80s and have been married since they were 17. As you can imagine it is very hard on Chuck. Please prayer warriors, pray long and hard for them.

Update

Please continue to keep Frank Bryant in your prayers as he recovers from his foot surgery. He is doing well but has a way to go before he’s healed from the toe removal. He was devastated to hear of Gail's accident and has been dealing with that as well. I spoke with him earlier today and he said to say thank you to the Hollydale folks for their prayers and hopes to come to church in the next few weeks. Thank you.

Because He’s Worthy


Greetings saints of HUMC!   This will be a unique Sunday as we worship in person but with a few changes.  Your Pastor will be away for a wedding in Seattle, Washington, so the order of worship will be as follows: Sunday school at the regular time.  At approximately 11:00 a.m. there will be an opening hymn, prayer concerns/praise reports, offering, message ( to be viewed on big screen together), then closing hymn.  Pastor Hull will bring a prerecorded message titled “Because He’s Worthy“  with scripture from Hebrews 13:1-8,15-16.     

Be Blessed, Pastor Hull

Join us this Sunday for worship at 11:00 in-person. We will not have a live Facebook stream at 11:20, BUT the pastor’s prerecorded message will be uploaded to Hollydale’s Facebook page to air at 11:00 as well as be available on Hollydale’s website www.hollydaleumc.org.  God's message through Pastor Hull will be "Because He’s Worthy" and scripture reading from Hebrews 13:1-8, 15-16.  

We miss those of you who haven’t returned to the sanctuary and look forward to seeing you very soon.  We always look forward to sharing this worship time with you whether in the pew or at home! Be safe and have a BLESSED day!

Prayer Request

Received the message below from Donna Parrish asking for prayers for her sister Pamela Howell. Please keep Pamela in your prayers as she travels this journey with her cancer struggles asking for comfort and peace for her and special prayers for her husband Marvin. Also, keep Donna and the rest of their family in your prayers as they love Pamela through this. Thank you.

Subject: asking for prayers

Hi, Susan. I request prayers for my family. My sister, Pamela Howell, has been diagnosed with cancer. She is being released from the hospital Saturday to hospice care. We don't know how much time Pam has left but we are counting each day as a gift. Her spirits are pretty good and the doctors are managing her pain. Thanks in advance for all who remember us in their prayers. This is especially hard for Pam's husband. So specials prayers for Marvin, please.

Yours in Christ,

Prayer Request

From Susan Davis

Please be in prayer for the family of Ryan McClimon. Ryan was on a trip to Costa Rica and while there developed a severe respiratory infection which happened very quickly. He passed away on Friday, July 30th. His mother, brother and partner Nathan were able to fly to Costa Rica to be with him before he passed but they won't be able to come home until Thursday due to the travel restrictions.

Ryan is like a second son to me as he lived next door growing up and best friends to Kristen and Paul. He called me his "other mom." So many memories of him and sadness fills my heart for he was a brother, a twin, a father to Anthony, a life partner and an amazing parent partner and best friend to many. Ryan had a lot of ups and downs in his life but in the past couple years was on top of the world helping others through addiction recovery. A heart as big as the sky for those he loved. Fly high Ryan! You will be missed by many. ❤️

Prayer Request

Please be in prayer for Steve Neal who was involved in a motorcycle accident about a week ago coming home from work. The person who hit him left the scene of the accident and others stopped and stayed with him until the ambulance could get there. He was in ICU for several days. Steve and his wife Tara are involved with our Boy Scouts. He’s had to undergo multiple surgeries this past few days and in a lot of pain. He has a long road to recovery but is in good spirits and appreciates all the prayers for he and his family. Prayers for pain med balance, successful surgeries and healing. Thank you

Update

Please continue to keep Gail Draper in your prayers.  She underwent hip and leg surgery this morning at 7:30 am at Kennestone Hospital.  She text the message below to me about 2pm.  Please continue to keep Gail in your prayers as she recovers from the surgery.  Thank you.  

Hi Susan, everything went well.   My surgery started at 7:30 this morning, it was through by 11.  They took the old bar out of my leg and put in a bigger longer bar from my knee to my hip.  Everything‘s fine, I fell asleep after the surgery and they let me sleep but I woke up because I’m starving and machines are beeping & beeping! Would you  put out the bulletin and let everyone know?  I can put full  weight on it cause the bar is bigger better one  it’s attached at the hip. And the knee with screws.

✝️ Would you please tell everyone thank you for all the prayers !!!  🎚


They worked out just fine 😉

Prayer Request

Please keep Gail Draper in your prayers. She fell last night and broke her hip. As many of you know she's been struggling this past week with a sudden notice she had to move from her home of 27 years due to water damage. She's been under a lot of stress and not feeling well during this time. I don't know all the details but was asked for immediate prayers for her and recovery from this accident. If additional details are provided, I will pass them along. Thank you.
