Greetings to all our families:
We had blessings in the services last Sunday. In the Evening Service, we anointed David Head with oil and prayed for him according to James 5:114-16. He had surgery on Tuesday and the doctor has felt that everything went fine with that surgery on his knee. He has been greatly improved, able to move about with only one crutch, and feeling much less pain. However only last night his feet began to be discolored—so seriously that they are going to see the doctor this morning. This is an entirely different issue from that which involved the surgery this week. It is that he does not have feeling from the mid-calf to the bottom of the feet in both legs. So David continues to need our prayers. You can send David a card at 5153 E. Essex Ave., Castle Rock, CO 80104.
Viola Wall has returned from Sky Ridge Hospital to the Brookside Inn Nursing Home in Castle rock. She has shown definite improvement. You can send Viola a card by addressing it to Brookside Inn, 1297 S. Perry, Castle rock, CO 80104
Today I have another prayer request for a big physical need. It involves Pastor Ross Davis, Littleton Baptist Church, Littleton, CO. He had a serious fall in his home two weeks ago. I do not know why, but I had not heard about this until two days ago. He was in the bathroom during the night and fell hitting his head very hard against the sink. In the fall his foot got caught under the vanity and so his body was twisted. As I understand, that caused his ankle to be broken and also caused a serious disk problem in his back. The blow on the head was so hard that it tore the ligaments in his neck. When the three firemen were getting him prepared for the trip to the hospital, they realized that the situation in his neck was so serious that a mistake could have caused him total paralysis . He has undergone surgery, and now there are internal complications following the surgery. He is very week and has been transferred from Littleton Hospital to St. Joseph’s Hospital where he is Intensive Care. I am told that he feels as though his whole body is numb. I am asking all our people to pray for this dear brother. He has been wonderfully used in our area to see Littleton Baptist Church continue to be a wonderful testimony for the Lord. Brother Dave Deets whom we have known here as a Missionary to Italy, is the Assistant Pastor of Littleton Baptist Church. Because of serious illness with their son, the Deets had to resign their appointment to Italy, and he was called by Littleton Baptist Church as Assistant. He is now carrying the load of the church. It looks as though Pastor Davis is gong to have a long recovery process ahead. You can send Pastor Davis a card by addressing it to Littleton Baptist Church, 1400 W. Caley Ave., Littleton, CO 80120
Pray for Pastor Josh. He leaves today to go to minister God’s Word in Zambia, Africa. He will be returning in two week.s Pray for safety in travel and power in his ministry.
Next Sunday morning, we have an excellent preacher speaking in the Morning Service, Dr. David Canedy, Deputation Secretary of Baptist World Mission. You will be blessed by this man’s ministry of the Word of God.
In the Sunday Evening Service I will continue the series of Messages on Revelation. We will be looking at Ninth chapter of Revelation this week.
Keep looking up. We will look to see you at the services on Sunday.
Yours and His,
Ed Nelson, Pastor
