Here's the latest from Martin Hoppock's facebook post....
Update on Bill William Strahan Dec. 27 1:20pm (Kim Ringo Bright): not much more to tell on Bill's condition. There has been no change. There is no brain activity. The doctors will wait until his body temp rises to do more testing. We won't know any more until tomorrow. Keep Karen Evans in our prayers also to help her stay strong and know that we love her too! Keep Praying for a Miracle! Everyone please copy and paste these updates so everyone stays informed and there is no confusion like yesterday.
Update on Bill 12/27/11 8:20am: Karen and Tina are at the hospital now waiting on the doctors. Bill William Strahan is still on life support. Keep praying. Pray that Bill's lungs rest while he is in this coma.
PUSH - Pray Until Something Happens
Apparently, Bill is still alive. Please continue to pray for him!
Martin Hoppock sent this earlier...
Bill will be kept in the coma for at least 48 hours to give his lungs the chance to heal from the smoke inhalation. We are all believing positively for a FULL RECOVERY. Karen is in good spirits and really appreciated all the prayers and support.
Dear CMA family,
> Please pray for our son, Kevin. He has stenosis of the spinal column, and more ruptured discs and broken vertebrae after turning and lifting his 1 year old son. We are not sure if the breaks are new or left unhealed from his original accident when he fell from a roof on 2/2/09 and had several surgeries over the next year; finally able to move without even a cane so a real set back.
> Please pray for God's touch as he is in a lot of pain.
> Thanks, Jane & John Schuster

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please put Willard on the Prayer list. He is in Mena Hospital here in Arkansas. He passed a large amount of blood in his stool & passed out early this morning (Sunday). They are thinking it might be an ulcer, although he hasn't had any stomach pain. Said we'd probably be here a couple more days.
Thanks,
Janice Mauerman

Matthew 5:4
Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted
John 14:1-4
Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God[; trust also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going.

Dear Friends in Christ,
Rich & I want to thank all of you for the prayers you offered to God for our son Adrian last week. We were finally able to talk to him and he is doing much better. He is a baby Christian and is new to leaning on the Lord in times of trials. Rich & I know God is bigger than Adrian’s addiction and God is able to repair and restore his life. We ask for continued prayers as the Holy Spirit leads you as Adrian learns to live without drugs. We are asking God to help Adrian trust in Christ and the Holy Spirit as he journeys through this time of trial and pain.
God’s blessings,

I don't often ask for Prayers, but here goes.
My 1/2 sister in Michigan has found she has cancer. She went in for something totally unrelated and
while in there they found the cancer on the Lymph nodes. (Deneice 55)
My younger 1/2 sister is on life support and they are talking about pulling it. (Darlene 52)
My full brother is having lung and Heart problems, he's an EX smoker. (Tom 63) The New meds the
Dr. put him on has made it easier for him to breath, so that's a start.
I might as well put me on there also. Nov. of 09 they found a spot (4.6 centimeters) in my uterus. (I went in because of severe pain in the abdomen).
Then the pain cleared up for 2 years, and then came back the second week in Dec. of 11. Had test done again to see what is going inside, waiting for results. Drs. won't do anything till it hits 6 centimeters.
(Sandy 60).
I'm finding out that cancer does run in the family. There mom has it, my dad died of it, my mom had it, but died of other reasons, but because of the cancer.
All this has been found out since Christmas.
It's just to much to fast.
Sandy
Dear CMA Family,
Rich and I are asking for prayers for our son Adrian whose god-son, Zachery Douglas- 4 years old -, died yesterday in a drunk driving accident (his mother was the driver who caused the accident).
We are asking you to join us in praying for Adrian, Bubba’s family and all those who are now mourning the loss of such a young life. Bubba’s father is in prison and we need prayers for him to not do anything stupid – such as kill himself or someone else as the pain and anger rage within him – as the feelings of guilt are now racking his soul and satan is playing with his unbelief. Pray for God to reach down into this man’s pain and find him, bring him to the foot of the cross where he can find healing and forgiveness.
We pray for Bubba’s mother who is now in the hospital healing from her injuries, for the trial she will undergo, for the other people who where injured in the crash – God help us all find your comfort in our hearts.
Adrian and others will be traveling for the funeral and we ask for travel mercies to be upon them as they come to celebrate Bubba’s life and how he touched theirs with his infectious smile and laughter.
We are also praying for God's peace to break through the mind numbing pain of losing someone so young to such a senseless way to die. Father God, help us when we don't understand the pain of this world and no words can express the depth of our sorrows. Send your Son to comfort us as we mourn the loss of little Zach - Bubba - and watch over his family who need to know you love them.
God’s blessings,
Rich & Susan Westland

Hi All,
One truly does not reliaze how big ones family is until something happens. The out pouring of prayer, cards, and calls have been comforting and uplifting and all I can say is Thank You. While we joind the CMA to share the gospel with the lost, I can not begin to
express the impact being part of this ministry has had on our lives.
I often think of the places we have been and the people we have come
to know through the CMA and all I can do is say Thank You Lord, wow.
Thank each and everyone of you for your caring heart.
God Bless,
Mike & Gail

Prayers for Jamie Domeier who will be having surgery today.
Dear All: First of all, Praise God for Julie's great report.
Now, I ask for prayer for the kids' Sunday school teacher, Anthony
Keller. He is early 30's with 3 grade school kids.
Just diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor yesterday, had surgery
today. He came thru ok, recognized his family, but the doctor
gave him 12 months. Please add him and his family to any prayers lists
you know of because we know that God can do great things.
He is the God of miracles. Thanks. Jo
PS. Mom and Dad, Anthony is one of the guitar players at church, you
may remember him.

Region Prayer Family,
Please continue to pray for Bob Miller (MI Area Rep). He will be having another back surgery on Monday (Feb 6th) at St. Joe’s in Pontiac. The doctors have found out that his spine is too weak to keep the screws in from the past 2 surgeries. Please keep Bob in prayer during this process, and for wisdom for the doctors to know what to do for his extreme pain.
Thank you for all your prayers for both Bob & Sharon..
Prayer please. On way to hospital. Something in my stomach popped. Felt it & my son even heard it over phone like a ballon popping. Not feeling well. Thank you!
