Greetings!,
It's difficult for me to adequately express my gratitude to everyone who so graciously responded to our last email, alerting you to the unfortunate reoccurrence of cancer, after I had overcome the first bout back in 2009.
All I can say is thank God for all your concern, the prayers of thousands around the world, and the financial support sent, enabling us to keep
afloat in an uncertain sea!
I can literally feel the strength of all the prayer being offered up on our behalf bearing me up like a ship on an ocean! I am so grateful for all your support!
However, I have good news and bad news!
The bad news is, even though we have been proactively going after a miracle, we have been slowed down by a few things.
There's been a significant healing revival going on for over six months in Mobile, Alabama under the stewardship of Pastor John Kilpatrick, who was central to the Pensecola Revival of the mid nineties.
John and I had spoken recently about my situation and he had invited us to come to the revival expecting a miracle. The only time we could go was last Thursday, so we booked flights, hotels and cars etc and were all set to go. However, the airlines canceled our flights due to the snow storm that blew into the Northeast of America. We will now have to wait until early March before we can go again.
And the good news is that a biopsy taken last Wednesday, when I had an endoscopy to see if any cancer had returned to the esophagus, as my recent PET scan seemed to indicate, proved to be clear, thank God!
This means that there are currently only the two lymph nodes affected! Please pray that those too will disappear!
I am currently ministering in Baltimore, MD until tomorrow, having spoken twice on Sunday and teaching three hours a day in a Bible college! The weekend before last we were in Chicago, IL where I spoke six times.
So, I refuse to slow down! I'm going to just push on regardless, as long and as hard as I can!
However, there are several ways you can make a difference.
1) We would kindly ask you to be active in prayer and to alert others you know who would faithfully pray for a miracle.
2) Melva and I would also appreciate your kind consideration of standing with us with financial support because of the uncertainty surrounding my ability to ministry, which is where 95% of our support comes from.
