A diagnosis, a long recovery, a parent in the hospital, or a mind that will not rest: these are heavy things to carry. Scripture calls God our healer and our very present help. Let us stand with you and ask Him for strength, healing, and peace.
Ask God for healing with all your heart. Then let yourself rest in His care. Faith is not a performance you have to keep up.
God works through skilled hands, good medicine, and the prayers of His people. You never have to choose one.
Anxiety and grief are real burdens, and God cares about them as much as any body that hurts.

Isaiah 41:10In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.

My back pain has been bad for months and the MRI is next week. I am worried they will find something serious. Please pray for good results and less pain so I can keep working. I keep thinking about what happens if I cannot lift at work anymore.

I was having panic attacks every night after my miscarriage. I prayed for peace and so did this community. It didn't all disappear at once, but within a few weeks I was sleeping again, and I felt God's nearness in a way I never had before.

After my surgery the doctors were watching a spot on my lung. I asked for prayer and so many people answered. The follow-up scan in September was completely clear. My oncologist used the word remarkable.

Dad had a stroke and the doctors were not hopeful. Over two hundred people prayed for him here. He spent three weeks in rehab, and last Sunday he walked into church on his own and sang every hymn. We are so grateful.
