Visitation of The Sick

I visited with Allen Searcy a few days ago.  Allen is recovering from having cancerous tumors removed.  He says he's doing well and doesn't expect to have to take radiation.

I visited with Clara Parkman this morning.  Clara spent a few days earlier this week at the Heat Hospital in Little Rock after suffering severe chest pains.  She's still waiting on some test results, but is home and doing better.

Allan May had eye replacement surgery last Wednesday at the Baptist Eye Center.  He reports a success and he's doing well.

Prayer Request

From Chuck Brown for his aunt Ethel Dyer who found out she has cancer.  Please keep her in your prayers.
