Fearless Friday

It's Friday once again and it's time to pray for our needs and the needs of others. 

Honestly, I am overwhelmed with the news I've been getting since I woke up this morning.  I already prayed but I will pray again after this.

Please pray with me for the family of Gina Carlin.  I got a message from Vicki, my dear friend, that Gina passed away.  I hurriedly hopped on to Gina's FB page and found this...
"With a broken heart I post the following to Gina Carlins' friends on Facebook: Gina Carlin passed away on Tuesday, September 21st. She was a loving wife and mother, a treasured daughter, beloved sister and friend. From our hearts to God's arms. Feel free to post your thoughts for the family to read and thank you for the... precious words already received from those of you that knew her and loved her as we did."
To those of you who knew her from Spicy, Savvy, Sane blog and Monkey Moon Photography, please pray for her family.

******************************

I have one more urgent prayer request.

My friend Lanie's niece, Rulaine Geronimo, who's just 11 years old was diagnosed with brain cancer last August and just a little over a month, Rulaine had already gone to be with our Lord.  The family was devastated.  They already lost a life and their bill in the hospital had since skyrocketed to $12,000.  Here's what's even more stressful ---  They were able to get Rulaine out of the hospital to the funeral home but the hospital won't release Rulaine's death certificate until Lanie's family are able to pay the balance which is still, I think, around $10,000.  The funeral home has given them only until Sunday this week to accommodate them or else they will be paying additional $112 per day until they get Rullaine's body buried or cremated.  How can this be done without the death certificate?  They don't have insurance coverage.

Dear friends, I appeal to you to please pray for my friend Lanie and if God leads you to make a financial donation of any amount, it will be very much appreciated.  Your donation will definitely be a huge help for Lanie's family.  I have set up a donation button at the lower left side of this page.  I will be accepting donations on their behalf using my Paypal account for now. Please do email me if you made a donation.  I would like to make sure that everything is properly accounted for.  I will give Lanie the list names of everyone who prayed and gave. You may also email her at melaibenedicto@yahoo.com.

Thank you very much.  May God bless you and your family.
