Please Pray
This is Emma with her daddy, Joel on Easter this year. Emma is very sick with a high fever that will not come down. Joel and April (Emma's mommy and daddy) are missionaries in Haiti and they are not anywhere near a hospital. Please keep Emma in your prayers.Update 6/11/07: I just got word from Joel that Emma's fever has gone down and she is doing much better today. Thank you all for your prayers! Isn't God good?
Joel has asked me to ask all of you to pray for April. She has had a terrible migraine since yesterday and last night a fever was starting.

Thanks for letting me know, Melanie. Joining you in prayer for this precious one. Lord, put your healing hand on Emma and give Joel and April your perfect peace.
Our church has a team going to Haiti for a short term missionary trip on Tuesday for two weeks and a guy in our church works for Missionary Flights International that flies medical supplies and personel to Haiti from here in FL, he is one of the pilots - if you think they need any help with medical supplies let me know and I'll put you in touch with the right people!
Father, I pray you will hold Emma in the palm of your hand and let your healing virtue fill her little body. I pray you will give her Mommy and Daddy wisdom as they seek you during this startling time in this foreign land. I pray you will bring a divine healing that will be used to your glory in Jesus name I pray!
Amen.
