Update

I received an update on Karen from Joyce Shonkwiler and want to pass this along. Karen was taken by ambulance last night to the ER and spent most of the night there. My apologies for not being accurate in the earlier email. Her doctor said she could go to the ER, but had to go by ambulance. She is also trying to work in an earlier appointment with the doctor. She has three broken disc and a broken rotator cuff. She is back home with prescription medication to help with the pain. Annette Mundon sent a message to me telling me that Hollydale’s Touch of Grace Ministry paid a visit and brought dinner to Karen this week and others have inquired about how they can help. We will pass along any information received about coordinating meals for Karen. Please continue to keep her in your prayers as she struggles through this painful situation. Thank you.

Please keep Karen Berta in your prayers. Karen fell and injured her back, believes she has broken something, but due to a previous extensive back surgery she underwent, she just can’t go to the ER. She won’t be able to go to her back doctor until the 16th and will have to be taken by ambulance per her doctor’s orders. Please pray for comfort and healing for Karen as she deals with the injury and what will come next once she can see the doctor. Thank you.

Message from LJ Russell. Please keep LJ and his nephew’s family in your prayers.

Today we lay my nephew to rest . I want to thank my Hollydale UMC Family for the many prayers for Bob. He was a force of nature. He is blessed to have accepted Christ prior to his passing. I stand firm in the belief that he is now being held in the loving arms of our Lord. Thank You Lord for the blessing of this young man in my life. As all were blessed to have known him.

Shelley sent the below update on Alexis’ knee injury.  Please continue to keep Alexis in your prayers as she goes through her medical treatment and has a speedy and full recovery.  This has to be quite upsetting for Alexis as this would be her first season playing college basketball.  Thank you. 

I wanted to give you an update on Alexis' knee injury.  She had her MRI and tore her ACL and meniscus.  She will go to doctor tomorrow and we will find out more information.  I would imagine she will have to have surgery and will be out for the basketball season.  Prayers and God Bless.
