Prayer Request

There are times in each of our lives that rain falls, hard times come and it helps to reach out to our friends and to our God for a little support. This is the place to express those needs, concerns and situations so others in the AAPK family can keep you in their prayers.

Prayer Request

Post by Quick Steel »

A close family friend is slowly dying of pancreatic cancer. She was subjected to so much chemo that all her bones are gravely weakened. In a few weeks she will be taking a final cruise accompanied by my sister and some of her family. Of concern to me is that she has little, if any, remaining natural immunity yet will be with a couple of thousand fellow passengers. Nasty bacteria and viruses are not unknown on cruise ships.

This lady has been very charitable and generous in her life towards others but is not a Christian and apparently has little spiritual experience.

Kindly pray that she becomes open to the graces Our Lord may provide her. Thank you.

Christian or not, she deserves our prayers. God commands us to show compassion to those who don't, or won't believe.

It's not a request...

I've seen a lot of endings in my life, and a lot of life. Ive seen friends talk about faith and their eyes light up. Ive seen good friends that were good people die and express their faith at the ending of their life. Death is so much a part of life. Ill pray for her.


I am reserved to say this but I have a special friend that was born and raised in Alaska. He is old like me. A knife maker like me, He has always told me, if he is terminal ..he's going back home and cut a switch and slap a grizzly bear on his butt. Im crying now.

Prayers sent my friend.

Praying your friend will be receptive to the gospel, maybe the Lord provide her with a special messenger on the cruise she can relate to. ::pray::

Positive thoughts and prayers to your friend, and all those affected by her condition. My heart goes out to anyone affected by cancer.
