Prayer Requests

Latest PRAYER REQUESTS:

-- Officers Rob Dahl and Mike Dye sent the following request:

The following e-mail was forwarded to me from Scott Chamberlain, who is a LEO from Oregon. Officer Doug Asboe (Fairview PD) and his wife Tera (Boring FD) had a baby boy a few weeks ago, born with a serious medical issue. He remains hospitalized at Dornbecher and they have been by his side throughout, staying at the Ronald McDonald house a good portion of the time. Their son, Ryker, continues to struggle and is facing another significant surgery incoming days. We need to truly cover this family, baby Ryker, the doctors and nurses and everyone involved in significant prayer!!!

-- Pray for Boulder (CO) PD Sgt. Jim Byfield who was severely beaten in an on-duty assault last Saturday night. Here is an article on the attack (as with almost any media report, I can't vouch for accuracy): http://www.denverpost.com/commented/ci_16371527?source=commented-
This could have been much, much worse. Suspect is still at-large -- pray he is taken into custody without further injury to officers.

-- Pray for Chicago PD Officer Marikay O'Brien who is once again dealing with a potential cancer issue. Marikay has also been reaching out to wounded CPD Ofc. Densey Cole.

-- Please keep Daniel and the rest of the Greenhalgh family in prayer. God knows the need.

-- Please pray for a new officer who is feeling lost spiritually as he starts out in our God-ordained yet exceedingly difficult profession.

-- Please pray for our country and our leaders, especially in regards to the upcoming election that is only only days away (many of us have already submitted our mail-in ballots or gone to early voting). I can't tell you whom to VOTE for, but our call is to vote biblically (biblical world-view). Let's also be II Chronicles 7:14 Christians both on our knees and at the polls. May God bless and keep and the United States of America and defend our fellow warriors fighting both abroad (military) and domestically (law enforcement).
