Prayer Requests Needed

A family member of mine was diagnosed with leukemia in the spring. He is a sweet 12 year old boy who likes to go deer, dove, and duck hunting and bass fishing with his dad. He has a family who loves him and friends who miss him. He had a normal life of a typical middle-school boy until his diagnosis. Since then, he's been through ups and downs. He's had rounds of chemo, made it to remission, only to be re-diagnosed.

He keeps running fevers and his white blood cell counts are very low. His chemo treatments cannot be given until his blood cell counts get higher. 

Please keep him in your prayers. 
I don't usually post such personal information on here, but I believe in the power of prayer. So, if you're reading this post, please take a few minutes in your day to send up a prayer for Dylan.

"Have faith in God," Jesus answered. "Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, 'Go throw yourself into the sea,' and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them. Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours."
Mark 11:22-24

  4. Dylan's name and intention will be written on the prayer wall of the North American College, so that 255 seminarians will be able to see this and pray for him. "And whatever you ask in my name, I will do..." Jn 14:13. Matt
