Praise Report & Prayer Requests

[cindyritter]

I know over the years I have shared quite a bit with some of you about my family in the form of various prayers requests and I have one again tonight, but first I have a praise report!

When my son Ryan married his wife Rose she had been baptized and raised in Church but had turned from the church and was curious about the wiccan religion and some other pretty scary things. That was more than 5 years go and I have sent out many many prayer requests and some progress reports.... Now I am excited to share a PRAISE! Rose & Ryan attended church with me tonight for the first time since they married and Rose really liked the service and wants to go again! God is SO good and He does hear and answer our prayers! I can remember a few years ago telling Rose that I would never pressure her to go to church, but would also not stop inviting her because I love her LOL ...she finally accepted the invitation and God was able to touch her heart through the service. I can't even begin to express how happy and thankful I am tonight! (BTW we go on Saturday night because our church is massive and there is less of a crowd on Saturday Night, and my BF and I have two special needs boys and they do better with a smaller crowd in the kids groups) Anyway please say a prayer of thanks to the Lord for Rose starting to open her heart to the Lord and turn back to Him!!!

An update on my son Ryan and another prayer request...
Over the years I have asked for prayer for my son Ryan many times, and I thank you ladies for each and every prayer. But I come again asking for prayer for Ryan, because he goes into surgery again on Thursday August 2nd (this will be #7 for him for the same problem) In the past he has had 2 bone transplants, cartilage transplants, attempts to repair his quad tendon, ACL and MCL. Praise God the bone transplants look good on the MRI, but his quad tendon is almost completely destroyed and they can no longer try to repair it, so they will be trying to rebuild in with donor tissue. Please keep Ryan in your prayers... And Rose too, they are going to be very stressed financially with Ryan unable to work for roughly 2 months.
Also praying for Dante (he has a flu bug again... And praying Ryan does not catch it or the surgery will have to be rescheduled) I thank you all in advance for your prayers. Cindy


P.S. My daughter April also needs prayer to return to the loving arms of the Lord where she belongs. <3 Thank you!
