Karmen shares this praise report:
Thank
you so much for your continued efforts and prayers on our behalf. I did want to forward a praise report rather than
a request at this time. I know you all were praying for our daughter Allison (8 years in March). She had her surgery
on May 21st. The doctors were unsure of the exact outcome to expect, but we knew best case scenario, was a repair to
her kidney and bladder, worst case was a removal of all or part of one of her kidneys. They were able to repair the
right kidney and attach a tube that was never attached properly to her bladder. Nothing was removed or damaged during
the surgery. Her recovery was extremely painful and long for her (and us all), but one month later from her surgery
we can say with certainty that this surgery has healed her of all her symptoms from birth, there is no indication that there
will be any lasting issues following the surgery (other than a large scar!)
We are happy to add that she is going
to camp at Rhodes Grove next week and signed up for Basketball camp in July. Due to her symptoms before, the only active
sport she could participate in was swimming! She is excited to try her hand at other things now!

Simmers,Pastor
Thursday, July 3:
Blue Mountain
Joseph Duvall,InterimPastor
Pastor Joe shares:
Thank you for remembering us at Blue Mountain.
We'd be happy if you'd join us in prayer for VBS which begins July 14.
This is a huge community outreach for the church and we are in anticipation
of reaching new children which translates into more homes being opened to the gospel.
There are several transitions taking place @ Blue Mountain. Some welcome
& some not so welcome. Pray for God's will to be foremost is all decisions & transitions.
As always, pray for God to impart His wisdom to me. I am not interested in
my time spent at Blue Mountain just being "a period of time". I'm praying for a revolution of genuine revival to begin in
our own hearts and spread to the community. Statis-quo is not on the agenda!
Pray for God's wisdom for the trustees & board members as they make decisions
on how best to finish up the building projects. It seems the most important ones are the most costly, so have a tendency to
get pushed to the back of the agenda, while less important projects get pushed ahead since they are less costly
Again, thank you for praying with us.
Friday, July 4: Office Closed
Pray for our country,
leaders and the upcoming November elections.
