6. Prayer Request

Please continue to pray earnestly for Pastor Dave McIntyre (senior pastor of Calvary EFC, Trumbull, CT) and his wife Andrea. Please check out his blog at www.calvaryefc.com. 

Pastor Dave McIntyre had really heavy-duty chemo last weekend. This is because the cancer has grown during recent chemo treatments. The doctor thought it would take several weeks both to recover and to know what next steps might be needed. Please pray for grace and healing for Dave and Andrea and family as well as church family.
