From Sue Greene:
I had a call from Holly and she asked me to tell everyone at Powhatan that she loves them and to continue to keep her and the family in our prayers. As I shared with Holly if Jesus brings us to it he will see us through it.
Lets all keep Holly and children in our prayers along with Stan and Debbie.

Brandi Benson
From Brandi’s mother:
I would like to be able to give updates on Brandi until we all are able to return to church. She is doing so much better and is ahead of schedule. God has truly gotten Brandi and the family through this. Brandi is walking on her own without help, walking up and down stairs without help, bending her knee to almost a normal position, and her pain is lessening each week. She is only 4 weeks out of surgery.
Thank you
Tammy Benson

Martha Jones
From Pastor Jim:
Martha and I visited with Martha Jones at the Hospice facility in Goldsboro today. She was very weak, very tired. Her memory too is failing her more and more. We had prayer with her and assured her that the church family was praying for her. She is in no pain; just very tired. Be much in prayer for her.
Becky Harden
From Pastor Jim:
We talked with Dan last night. Becky is about the same. She was sleeping at the time of our call. We asked Dan if there was anything we could do – He simply asked for prayer. Becky can’t eat anything by mouth. Dan said he would feel bad if we brought him some fried chicken and she couldn’t have any. Be much in prayer for them. We can help Becky by supporting her outreach program to the nursing homes this month.
