Please continue to pray the UTI is completely resolved.

Jesus has the physical, emotional, spiritual & mental healing Marko needs.  Help him to open his heart to receive it.  All glory to God. We ask it in Jesus Name.   ( please send Your Peace that passes understanding to his family as well as to Marko.  Amen)

2/1 From Jackie: My dad was sent home last night. All test were fine. They told him to see his Dr on Monday to have his meds controlled. Sounds like his BP meds need to be adjusted. Thanks for the prayers. I’m hoping he’s okay today and can get into his Dr tomorrow right away.
