Austin had surgery last Thursday and all went well. Thank you for praying. However, he has popped his stitches and the wound is open. We are headed back to ECU Pediatric Surgery today, Wednesday.
The doctor told us this morning that he may have to go back into surgery to reclose the wound. Please pray that while the wound is open that it will not become infected.

My mother had surgery on her foot in 2019 and the wound got infected during her recovery. She then had another surgery that required her to have a vein removed from her arm to her foot to restore the blood flow in her foot. She never really healed and the foot is still swollen.
She is constantly dealing with pain that sometimes radiates throughout her leg. The doctors also want to perform another surgery, but she is fearful about where to go and what to do.
Please pray for healing and direction as she seeks medical advice, and God’s peace as she’s been dealing with this for over 3 and a half years. She is extremely discouraged and anxious about what to do next.

Lamet of Laos
Lamet of Laos
Population: 25,500
Religion: Ethnoreligion
Join us this week in praying for the Lamet of Laos, who are currently unreached and unengaged and live in villages in the isolated mountains of North West Laos. This people group is considered inferior by others who live in this region.
Families /households typically range from 6-7 in each family and the father is the head of the household and makes all decisions regarding his family. Most Lamets engage in farming and hunting.
Communication with the Lamet people is not easy due to the rough terrain getting to the mountainous area in which they live, so would you pray, that the Lord would make a way to send many laborers to go and work among the Lamet, so that they can learn and hear and know the true, inner peace and salvation that only God can give them.

1/16/23 Update - Colin is in a new day program and the manager and a male staff member is working with Colin. The male employee is working on his masters and it’s in the field of behavioral therapy and Autism. This is a blessing that God would put Colin in a new program, with a male, and with someone training in the field of caring for those with intellectual disabilities. Colin seems to be doing well in the program and we pray it continues.
Eddie's chest pain is there when he stresses. Work has been more demanding for Eddie since they are short two partners and the worries of Colin have both impacted his stress level. Pray we will know if the time has come for Eddie to retire. I’ve been praying for God's guidance for us both and what God wants for us regarding work/retirement.
My passion is helping others and I don’t know how God wants to use me to do that. I don’t feel like my current career is how I can pour into those that need me, but I don’t know what the next chapter is. Eddie's blood pressure medicine was increased and he is to continue to monitor his chest pain so his heart doctor can decide on a heart Cath. He returns to work tomorrow.
We also have a family member trying to bring stress into our family and I refuse to allow it. Pray God continues to guide us with healthy boundaries and healing. We do have a meeting with this family member this coming Friday so please pray for peace and God to intervene in the situation.
Grateful for your prayers!

1/11/23: Since my husband and I started the Leadership Pipeline, Satan has tried to attack our family and home in major ways.
We are trusting God and believing through the difficulties something will come of it that will bring glory to His name.
Please pray for Eddie as he’s come home from work with chest pain. He had heart surgery in 2016 and the stress associated with our special needs son has taken a toll on Eddie. Over the last month we’ve had behavioral issues and issues with getting care for our son. That stress has gradually worn Eddie down. Eddie had an EKG today and it didn’t show he was having a heart attack but it did show PVC’s. If it continues he’ll get a heart catheterization. Please pray for healing of Eddie’s heart, for caregivers for Colin, and for peace from all the attacks Satan is trying to use.

Pray for the Sutradhar of India
The Sutradhar of India, numbering 863,000, are Unengaged and Unreached. This people group is concentrated in the state of West Bengal and they are only found in India.
Pray for believers to take the available Bible translations, Gospel recordings and the Jesus films that are available in their language, to them to help in sharing the good news about Jesus.
The primary religion practiced by the Sutradhar is Hinduism, the predominant religious tradition of India. Hindus believe in the soul, or true self. According to Hindus, the soul goes through reincarnation—a rebirth of the soul into a new body after death. Life, birth, death, and rebirth is an endless cycle
called samsara. Rebirth is affected by karma—the result of deeds
or actions—in the present life.
Will you pray for the Sutradhar of India, that they may break the endless cycle of darkness?
Pray for someone to go and share the gospel with these people. Pray and ask the Lord if that person might be you or your family.

She just wants to go to heaven to see our dad and grandparents.

We are very concerned Colin will regress if he goes too long without assistance like he previously received through his day program.
In addition, this is very stressful for us. I’m currently trying to work but also care for Colin and it can be challenging. Colin continues to need assistance to help him verbally express emotions so it’s very important that he continue to receive services and care.
I pray we have doors open for Colin, the right people become available for Colin, and we make the right decisions about his care.

Pray for the Komara Panta of India
The Komara Panta numbering 34,500 live in the Southwestern state of India named Karnataka along the Konkan Coast.
They read, write and speak in Kannada. But also speak Marathi and Konkani.
They practice Hinduism. Hinduism is extremely diverse with no essential beliefs or required practices shared by all. Therefore, they look to a guru to lead them. The goal of a Hindu’s life is to build up enough good karma to attain freedom from the cycle of reincarnation and join with their gods. Hindus also hope their good works prevent calamity or difficult circumstances in this life. More than dealing with sin, the Komara Panta people are concerned with fulfilling their obligations and doing good works to avoid being punished by their gods through painful life circumstances.
The Bible is considered a Holy Book to the Komara, but does not apply to them personally.
There is no record of any among this people group who have had the opportunity to hear the good news of Jesus Christ. There are no known Church Planting efforts among them.
However, there are bible translations, Jesus Films, gospel recordings and radio broadcasts in their mother tongue.
Will you pray and ask the Lord to send someone to take these materials to the Komara Panta? Ask the Lord to send believers to who will go and explain the Good News to them, teaching them to obey what they learn.

That village name is *Sh—
There were many people after we entered in the one home with the 13 people and we shared the gospel. They heard gospel and they all believed.
We took tea, we took some photos and we wrote names and times. Everything was good. We told them, we will come back.
And we left that village and went to another for sharing.
But Next day .
Some villages people came together and discussed about our trip.
Some people know we came in villages and we going here and there. They understood we came for spread our religion and convert the people. Then some came that home asking about us.
They say, ''Foreigners people comes and spreads their religion and they does conversion to the people.''
This news spread to the Antichrist people ( RRS people, VHP, Bajrang Dal , Bjp) through WhatsApp groups.
Two days before, one man came for the prayer in that village. He was a pastor, his name is Gavit. He doesn't know what happens in that village. When he entered that village, Some Antichrist people attack on him. They broke his car. They beat him very cruelly. This news spread in *R District.

Praise the Lord, that more than 120 children currently have safe, caring homes as a result of families saying “yes” to becoming licensed foster care parents.
BCH has been been providing a variety of placement and prevention services to meet the specific needs of children and families through their many programs including Cottage Care, Family Care, Community Outreach Ministry, Orphan Care, Family Foster Care and others.
Although we can’t help every child, you can be a difference maker for even one child giving them a bright hope for the future.
Join with us in prayer, that our own church, and churches throughout North Carolina would each care for at least 4 of the 16,000 children in North Carolina's foster care system! If Baptist Children's Homes and the local church met that goal, every child would have a caring home!

Please pray for the salvation of my son in Texas. Drew grew up in the church but has turned from the Christian walk.

EBC Family,
Please pray for our son, Cooper, who has been diagnosed with Osgood-Schlatter's syndrome. He has been unable to play sports for over a year now, and his lower legs and feet hurt daily. He is currently in Physical Therapy at Boice-Willis Therapy on Winstead Avenue.
Please pray God, our ultimate healer, would allow Cooper's legs and feet to stop hurting, and for the syndrome to disappear.
Please help us pray for conscientious therapists who are working with him to provide a healing and helpful treatment plan.
Please pray that Cooper's motivation for daily activity increases (and for him to do his exercises at home) which are needed to recover muscle loss he has sustained. Thank you for each and every one of your prayers for Cooper. God bless you.

Pray that Micah's country will open for adoptive families to travel to finalize adoptions.
