PRAYER WALL

Therefore, let us approach the throne of grace with boldness, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in time of need. - Hebrews 4:16

Thank you for visiting Englewood's Prayer Wall and for praying for the requests below. We believe in the power of prayer to transform our hearts, lives, homes and beyond.

Candace Roberts

I’m grateful we are part of the family at Englewood and that God has blessed us in so many ways. I’m grateful for the opportunity to serve at Englewood and walk alongside other Christians. And for the privilege to bring my prayer requests before the church family.

My family and I need your prayers as we continue to go through a very difficult time with my sister that is mentally unhealthy and unstable. I’ve dealt with her unhealthiness for years and it’s worn me down to the point that I had to set boundaries and not get around her. She lies, deceives, and lives a very unhealthy life. I’m praying for salvation for her, and that God protects us from her. Through this I’m asking God to continue to strengthen us, protect us, and allow us to keep our eyes on him!

"Praise the Lord, I tell myself; O Lord my God, how great you are! You are robed with honor and with majesty; you are dressed in a robe of light. You stretch out the starry curtain of the heavens; you lay out the rafters of your home in the rain clouds; You make the clouds your chariots; you ride upon the wings of the wind" (Psalm 104:1-2).

Chris Pridgen Praise for Ed

10/11 Update on my husband Ed, he had his bloodwork done today and it was good. He also had his Pet scan and there was nothing suspicious, doctor was pleased! We praise God for his healing and we go back in three months for more bloodwork and another Pet scan. Thanks for your many prayers.

-------------------------------------------

10/2 Update on my husband Ed,

We are almost three months out from his cancer treatments and he has gotten most of his strength back, his taste is coming back slowly. We go back October 10th for a Pet scan to confirm that his cancer is gone and more blood work so please continue to keep him in your prayers for an awesome report. There is victory in Jesus and his mercies are new every morning. Thank you for your continued prayers through his journey and we are anxious to put this chapter behind us.

--------------------------------------------

PRAISE!!!!! 8/8/23 Update on my husband Ed:

This is certainly a praise report, the cancerous tumor is gone. Thank you Jesus and for the many prayers that have been uttered. To God be the Glory for the great things he had done. We go back to Duke in October for the Pet scan so please continue to pray to confirm the findings of today. Hallelujah!

--------------------------------------

8/7 Update on my husband Ed,

we are a month out from his treatments and he is getting a little stronger every day. Two weeks ago we went to Duke for bloodwork and to see the chemo doctor. His bloodwork levels were improving and the doctor said he was pleased. We go back tomorrow Tuesday the 8th and the radiation doctor will put a scope down his nostril and take a look at the base of his tongue. Three weeks into his radiation he did this same procedure and the cancer was 75-80% gone. He had radiation for seven weeks so please pray the it’s 100% gone. We are so trusting God for an awesome outcome. Thank you for being with us through this journey and your prayers. Hope to be back in church soon!

----------------------------------------------

7/8/23 Update on my husband Ed, this past Wednesday July 5th was his last radiation treatment and over a week ago his last chemotherapy. Praise God we are done, just some follow up appointments with bloodwork in two weeks and then in four weeks they will put a scope down his nostril and take a look. Three months from now, he will have another pet scan so please continue to pray for good results. Also pray for a speedy recovery that he will get stronger and get all his taste buds back. Thank you! God is so good!

------------------------------------------

4/5/23 UPDATE: Ed, just returned home from Duke Health for consultation and with all that’s going on, they had already reviewed his records and did the biopsy while we were there. The preliminary findings are that he has squamous cell carcinoma and now we are waiting for an appointment for the Pet scan. So continue to pray for him! Thanks.

40 Day Pray for EBC - Day 1

40 Days of Prayer for EBC

Day 1

What do we do? Is a question that many will ask during this season in the life of Englewood. What we do is pray and we continue sharing the Gospel message of Jesus Christ to a lost and dying world. Realistically, we know that prayer is

the most important thing we can do during this pastoral search. It is difficult - just ask Peter, James, and John (Matthew 26:36 – 46). It has been said by those who consult with churches during these times of transition that a lack of prayer is one of the biggest mistakes made during the process.

Begin today by praying;

* asking God for His continued blessings on EBC,

* for His guidance as our search team enters this time of seeking God’s direction,

* for stamina to continue praying for as long as it takes,

* for us to be sensitive to God’s leading during this time of transition,

*to remember to pray for our leadership at EBC in the days to come.

Pray for Baptist Children's Homes

There are 16,000+children without homes in the state of North Carolina alone!

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!
