Prayer Requests and Praises!!

Just a Few Prayer Requests and Praises to be noted!!

*Today is my 8 year anniversary of when I was diagnosed with Cancer. Feb 22nd 1999 will of course always be a day I remember. So Praise the Lord that I remain Cancer Free!! Praise the Lord for all the Amazing things he has done with My Cancer story, and Most of all... Praise the Lord for Caleb, who would not be here without my Cancer experience! Go God!!

*Praise - Chris (the fella buying our house) GOT HIS JOB and they will be closing by the end of the Month!!! YEAH!!!!! They actually moved in last Friday to "rent" until all those details were resolved! Thank you, Lord, for both us and them!!!

*Praise - Laura (one of our teachers) was able to lead a High Schooler to the Lord on Friday!! (See her pic on the picture website.)

*Praise - that our friend Ashley's Grandmom did not have cancer, as they had thought!!

*Prayer Request: Please pray for one of our Brazilian teacher's aides, CORA, her son John who is 20 was just diagnosed with Leukemia. They are flying to the states this weekend to seek treatment. They are selling everything and will not likely return. Her son Pedro was one of my 4th Graders. Please get before the Throne on their Behalf!! They come from a Catholic background, but we aren't sure of a personal relationship with Christ.

*Prayer Request: Please pray for Caleb, as he has been having nose bleeds off and on. I think it's mostly related to the drier air, and higher altitude. I will be calling his pediatrician next week if it continues.

*Prayer Request: Please pray with us as we consider the purchase of a car. We live a good 10 minutes drive from the school, and are relying on the Brazilian maintance man from the school for transportation. They have been gracious, but please pray for wisdom and discernment.

*Prayer Request: Please pray for our students! They are a great bunch, but come from many different backgrounds. Many Muslim. It was a great thing to hear them doing prayer requests and taking turns praying in my 4th and 6th grade classes today. Pray that God prepares their hearts! Also... I am praying about having the Jr High Girls (and possibly the Sr high too) over one night for a sleep over. They all want to, and have said their parents would be for that... I just have to approve through the right channels!

*Prayer Request: Please pray for the Isbell Family that is in Rio. They are also considering a purchase of a car. They have so many kids that need rides to church on Sunday, that they would love to pick up and take, but are unable to. Please also pray for their ministry.

~Thank you so much for going to the Throne with these Requests! Your prayers are felt and appreciated!!!

Because He said "Go,"

Hello Fryar family. Just checking out your blog and wanted to say that we are praying for you guys. Caleb looks so big since the last time we say him! Hopefully, we will SEE you guys soon! Do you have plans for EASTER?
Love you guys, Jon, Rachel, Kierra, & Raegan
