Prayer Requests

Back in the spring of 1999 I felt a strong call to attend Seminary. By autumn I was enrolled and attending my first class. For a number of years I took one or two classes a semester. By spring 2004 I had completed half of the required 93 hours to receive my Masters of Divinity. Then two major problems occurred. First, I ran out of scholarship money. Second, I injured my right hand on June 15, 2004. The lack of scholarship money was a serious problem, but the injury forced me to drop out all together. After nine months of therapy my hand was much improved but my financial situation was now much worse then it had been before, I had incurred some medical expenses which I still have not paid off. I simply do not have the needed cash to attend graduate school. I have searched for scholarships but they simply are not available when it comes to religious degrees. My hearts desire is to return to Seminary and finish that degree. The only thing stopping me is a lack of finances. Please join me in praying for this need.

Back in the mid 1990’s the Holy Spirit gave me and some others a vision of a community out in the boondocks where people who have Multiple Chemical Sensitivities and/or other diseases can live, learn about Jesus, and find healing. Over time the others given this vision have left to do other things, leaving me all alone to run Alpha Omega Christian Communities For The Chemically Injured (AOCCCI). I have prayed for others to help in this work. Board members are needed. Volunteers with a variety of skills are needed. Over the years people have come, but usually not for very long. The need is great. Please pray for this situation. And if the Holy Spirit may be leading you to join the work, please let me know. I am more then happy to discuss how and in what ways you may be able to serve God through the work of AOCCCI.
