Please Pray For This Family!



I just wanted to ask for your prayers for this family. Although it's been years and years since I've talked with him, Ryan (the husband) was a good friend of mine during college. His wife, Lora, was diagnosed with a rare blood cancer this spring (while she was 5 months pregnant with their 3rd little girl). Ryan and Lora are also in full time ministry (in Minnesota)- and I have been so encouraged and amazed by their story and their complete faith. From reading their blog I've heard that Lora will soon be having a bone marrow transplant. Please pray for this family- that our Lord might choose to heal Lora and that their lives and faith during this time might reach many who don't know the Lord that they serve.
If you want to read more about their story (which really is incredible) you can check it out here at: http://www.wdio.com/article/stories/S527989.shtml?cat=10335
