         "Thy light [shall] break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily" (Isaiah 58:8a).

ANSWERED PRAYERS

Asia:
         1. Indonesia: Despite the current unstable economic and political situation, the Lord has continued to miraculously care and provide for the local Family and prosper the Indonesian work.
         2. Gabey (3, of John and Rejoice) (PL 53:8): (Meningitis) "Gabey got out of the hospital after exactly one month. The meningitis was healed earlier, but he had also developed infectious arthritis in his hip, which kept him in the hospital a couple of weeks longer. The doctors are very pleased with his progress: in one week he went from hardly being able to stand to being able to walk without holding on. He just has a very slight limp as his left hip is very stiff still, but the doctors expect that to go away in time and as he exercises. We are all praising the Lord and want to send a very big thank you to everyone for all your care, love, and especially the words of encouragement through prophecy which we have received from around the world. We're so thankful for everything, and we just wanted to share the good news with you all that Gabey is well and happy and active again."
         3. Timmy (9, of Mary) (PL 49:2): (Guillain-Barre syndrome [a disease similar to polio])"The Lord has been doing miracles for Tim, and he is almost completely healed. Previously he was not able to walk, but now he runs with the other kids and can do virtually everything. A slight weakness continues, and we pray that with time the Lord will heal that also. Thank you for your prayers for him."
         4. Jennifer (baby, of Casper and Leah) (PL 52:30): "Since sending in our prayer request for Jennifer's allergy condition and against ear infections, she's been miraculously better. Praise the Lord!"

Europe:
         5. Michael By Grace's child custody case (PL 51:45): In the preliminary custody hearing, the judge ruled that Michael By Grace's children are allowed to remain with him. The judge also said that his Family membership was irrelevant to the case and that it should not be made an issue.
