I'm not a religious person, but he's still in my thoughts.  Best of luck.  We'll hope for a positive outcome.

There are other American Christian friends for whose health I pray daily, facing the Temple Mount.

 I need to know your Dad's first name and his mother's name (your paternal grandmother).

   Hey gang.

     I've already posted this on the CTT and the OGR forums,but I figure all the prayer request will be fine.

   My Dad ,whom I've talked about on here several times, had a cancerous tumor removed on Dec.19th.

 He goes next week for a bone scan and exploratory surgery.

 He is a Christian and has faith in prayer,but is still in a very down state of mind.

 My Dad worked for the (C&O-CSX) for 42 years,and has been into model trains ("O" gauge) since about the age of 10.He also enjoys drag racing at NHRA and IHRA tracks.I've added his picture in my avatar.He's with his 78 Malibu wagon that he's raced since 1986.It was a winners circle picture from 2006 I think.

 So I'd apperciate if you don't mind mentioning my Dad in your prayers.

 We believe in the power of prayer Smile [:)]
