We received a message from Arlene for her neighbor’s daughter, Leslie. Leslie has had heart condition since she was young, but has recently been in the hospital in Pittsburgh. They are now moving Leslie to children’s hospital where they are going to do a catheterization; however these plans are subject to change at any time.  

We are asking that you pray for Leslie’s healing. Pray that the medical team will make the right decisions regarding her treatment. Pray also for her parents as they may need to go to Pittsburgh at a moment’s notice, pray for traveling mercies as well as comfort and peace during this time. 

Thank You.
