The Ultrasound Report

For those of you who didn't know, I'm pregnant again! However, I received a bad report on the baby yesterday when I went for my first ultrasound. Please read the prayer request below that was sent out to our church prayer email team and lift up our precious little baby on the way. Thank you so much.

Please pray for Mark & Heather Messick and the precious new baby they are expecting. Heather is 11 weeks pregnant and had an ultra sound done today that showed the baby MAY have a condition known as “Cystic Hygroma”. This condition is some kind of fluid filled cysts found mostly in the back of the neck that result from blockage in the lymphatic system. While I do not know exactly what this condition is, I do know that it can be dangerous for the baby. As we find out more and understand more, we will update you so that you may pray specifically. For now, please pray for the baby’s health. Pray for Mark and Heather to have peace of mind. Pray for their strength and wisdom in making any decisions they may need to make. Pray that they will be reminded everyday of God’s never ending love and mercy.

Here is a Praise!
Mark is speaking at a conference this week at Sherwood Baptist Church in Albany , GA. He is doing the Children’s sessions, and so far 11 children have made decisions to accept Jesus as their Savior. Please continue to pray for the Conference and for Mark as he leads the Children, that many more lives will be changed.
