PLEASE PRAY FOR MRS MADPRIEST'S MOTHER AND FATHER

First there was this a few days ago from MadPriest:

We've just got back from an unexpected, two day visit to Norfolk, made necessary by Mrs MP's parents having a fire in their home and her mum ending up in hospital. Things were bad but not as bad as they could have been and, although it's going to take a few months, their bungalow will be cleaned, repaired and redecorated courtesy of their insurers. Some other stuff that needed sorting out also went surprisingly well.

And then today:

Having only just got back from Norfolk I received a phone call earlier today in which I was told that police had broken into my father in law's house this morning and found him lying comatose on the floor. So he is now in the same hospital as my mother in law and we are back on the road again tomorrow, travelling all the way back to Norfolk.

Pray for Mrs MadPriest and MadPriest for safe travels.

O God, the strength of the weak and the comfort of sufferers: Mercifully accept our prayers, and grant to your servants Alan and Pam the help of your power, that their sicknesses may be turned into health, and our sorrow into joy; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

PLEASE PRAY FOR TRACY AND MRS MADPRIEST

After just getting over a nasty chest infection, Tracy now starts the new year with an infection in her leg.

O God, the strength of the weak and the comfort of sufferers: Mercifully accept our prayers, and grant to your servant Tracy the help of your power, that her sickness may be turned into health, and our sorrow into joy; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.

Tracy blogs as Petty Witter at Pen and Paper. You may want to drop in and leave an encouraging word. She's been confined to the house for a month, except for Christmas day before the leg infection set in, with only her husband Neal (Themethatisme) for company (poor baby!).

UPDATE: MadPriest says:

Mrs MP suffers from migraines. Of course, being Mrs MP she is not content to just have headaches, flashing lights and nausea she has to have the type of migraine that causes sinus pain. This (which sometimes happens twice a month) is an agony which she can only compare to acute toothache.... Please pray for Mrs MP. She is so miserable at the moment as her Christmas holiday has been pretty much ruined by it. And migraines and depression go together like pouring water onto a chip pan fire.
