Praises:
Mary Conley Thompson received a good report from the doctor about healing in her knee.

Requests:
Jill Jones will be having surgery for her brain tumor on Thursday in Dallas. The plan is to remove as much of the tumor as possible knowing that they probably can't get it all. The hope is that if they can remove the root of the tumor that the parts not removed will die off. Please pray for minimal side effects and a successful surgery. Please also pray for Jill's family as this has been very hard for them. The surgery is expected to last 10 to 12 hours so it will be difficult for her parents. Several of us are traveling to be there with her family that day.

Please pray for Leramie Priest who suffers with bad allergies, especially during this cattle show season time.
