Christian Photographers Community

We've learned from a phone call that our dear brother, Alan Moak, has been in the hospital for a week now.  He is very weak and when he is released from the hospital, he will be sent to a Nursing Home for rehabilitation.

We love our dear brother in the Lord and we ask that all of our members please pray for him that the Great Physician will heal him quickly and bring him back to health and strength.

John 11:3   "... Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick."

Pat I just found your email.  I'll be praying for Al tonight.

Just checking in and saw this announcement.  I am concerned about Al and will, most certainly pray more concertedly for his healing and complete recovery.  I am also concerned for Marbeth.   God keep them both in the very hollow of Your hand.   

My this is a shock but knew he hasn't been feeling well.  I will certainly keep Al in my thoughts and prayers and just as Jane indicated I will also remember Marbeth in my prayers.

I noticed Al hadn't been posting, but thought he was probably just busy.  I'm so sorry to read that he is sick, and have stopped and prayed for him and Marbeth before posting this.  May God raise him up quickly in fully restored health.

I am continually amazed at how dear to us our fellow posters on CP become, and how quickly!  Al actually called me a while back, and what a nice surprise that was!

When I was speaking to Marbeth last night she had a concern.   When he goes into a nursing home she hopes it is near to where they live otherwise she will have difficulty visiting him.  Lets pray also for this need.

Oh, no!  Praying as I type!!

Oh, our dear Al.

Prayers going his way and also for his wife and family to have the strength they need to handle this "new bump in the road of life".....

Please , dear Lord, extra special love and prayers for this much loved man who only knows how to spread Christlike feelings to all ....

Praying for Al

I pray our Heavenly Father will touch Al with healing and give His strength and peace to Al and Marbeth.   

Praying our Great Physician will restore Al to full health soon and give his wife and family wisdom regarding practical matters, and also give them daily evidences of His presence and guiding hand during this season.

Praying here for Al and Marbeth and will continue to pray for them.

There are no nursing homes very close to Marbeth and Al's home. Not in Mckinleyville or Arcata,  the nearest nursing homes are in Eureka about 17 miles from where they live. I  will call Marbeth  to see how he is doing. There is no charge for me to call them but I know their church family will see that Marbeth gets there. I will send a message to one of the members that is on Facebook just in case I can't reach Marbeth, Don Chin can bring me up to day on Al..

Praying too!!!

I just spoke to and prayed with Bro. Al, He said to tell you all thank you for the prayers and my god Bless you for your loving care toward him. He is in Room 124 at Mad River Hospital in Arcata Ca. the phone number there is 707-822-3621 if anyone  would like to call him.

He said his white cell count is too high, they haven't found out why yet but are giving him antibiotics, The Wound care Nurse had been there this morning to wrap his legs. He sounded a little bit down, it could be the medication. Marbeth was there with him.

Thank you Marilyn.

Marilyn, thank you for that update on our brother Al.  It's good of you to keep in touch.

Al: I am praying for your health and comfort and that healing will continue with a faster pace.  Take care. 

Al, keep your eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith.  Please don't get discouraged, know that many are praying for you!  We love and miss you!

Brother Al I am praying that you can know God's peace at this time and your family.It is hard to pray for complete healing in difficult situations, it is easier sometimes  I think to pray for someone mentally ill.I pray that Jesus will Minister to you exactly how he needs to.Geoff T from Adelaide South Australia

Heavenly Father we ask in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ for healing for our
brother Al, he is very dear to us Lord, we pray that you will give him supernatural strength, may your Spirit be healing him as we pray, pour your healing power into him Lord, we pray he will recover well and that he might be with us for years to come, encouraging us with his wisdom, his wife needs him Lord and so do we, hear us Lord. Amen.
All our love and prayers Al,
with much regard,
Chris & Margit.

amen....

Dear Al, I got an email message to say that you have not been well.  I am glad that you know that God is faithful in the good times as well as during our difficult times.  Nevertheless everyone wants to assure you that you are being prayed for.  I trust that you will know the presence of God during these hard days, and this is what I will be praying for - "... if God be for us, who can be against us."

God bless you Al (and your family too).

Anthony.

Al, I am concerned for you and Marbeth, for your health and for your strength to look up even when you feel so beset with difficulties at this time.

May God be with you and Marbeth, and may His loving care and healing touch be with you.

Love and prayers,
Ruth Ann Bice

father Be with Al and Marbeth as the go through difficult times with Al's health.  Touch him with your healing hand.  Be with Marbeth and give her peace to carry on through these difficulties.  I ask direction be gicen to the folks at Al's church to pick up the slack and provide the needs that accumulate during times like thin.  I ask this all in the neame of our Precious Saviour

Amen!!

Haven't posted lately, been really busy.

Al you have not been forgotten, we are praying for you here in NC. I don't get so busy that I don't pray.

I see it's been a week since there was a update on Al, just wondering if he is at the same phone # as posted by Marilyn and how he is doing?

Lord, in thy precious Name, we ask that you continue to be near both Al and Marbeth. Draw them up close to Your breast, please, and give them comfort and peace, and should it be in Your will, may they be reunited, stronger and healthier than they've been for years, we pray. We remember in Your holy Word that You tell us, "I am the Lord who healeth thee." We're claiming this promise in the name of Jesus who died for each of us, Amen

I Spoke to Marbeth last night.  Al has been moved to St.Josephes Hospital in Eureka.  From what she said that is further away from where they live, but the Doctor who is dealing with a different problem wouldn't go to the hospital that he was in.

St Josephs Hospital, Room 1327  Perhaps Marilyn can get the phone number for us.

These are the things that need prayer,

1.  His Kidneys that they become infection free. This was the source of high white cell count and the back pain he was enduring, also as the infection has reduced, so has the swelling in his legs..

2.  Pray that his strength increase so that he can get around on his own, and is able to go home.

3.  He will need to go to a nursing home, that his stay there is short.

4.  He is diabetic, pray that they don't have too hard a time keeping him on diet.  It is hard to change habits as we get older...especially label reading!.

5.  Last but most important please keep praying.  Prayer does work.

Judy:  thanks so much for the update on Al and for the specific prayers such as infection free kidneys and strength. 

On this beautiful Sunday morning, I will pray for our friend Al. 

Judy, thanks for the news from Marbeth.
