Youth pastor

[Venus Pax]

Our youth pastor had surgery today. We weren't even really sure if he was going to have it; I got a text from his wife this morning telling me he was going in.
This couple does a lot at our church. They are in their 20s and very active.
His surgery went well, but I'm concerned about how he will be doing mentally and emotionally having to lay in bed for so long.
Please pray for a speedy recovery for him, and pray for his emotions during this time. He's not the type of person that likes being home-bound.

Added to the prayer list. We will also pray for your Pastor as I am sure he is extra burdened right now.

Prayers from us. Since the procedure went well, I'm certain his spiritual strength and faith in God will support him through his recovery. And an extra prayer for his wife because--as Carlson1 made mention of the workload on your Pastor--I'll bet your Youth Pastor's wife will be in the role of caregiver during recovery and will have extra work to do, as well.

Just wanted to update:
He's home now. Although he is using a walker to get around, his wife said he is already walking straighter than before the surgery. He still can't do anything for himself except go to the RR.
Thank you for praying and please keep both of them in your prayers. I will report his progress.

Thank you for the update. Isaiah 59:1 "Behold, the LORD's hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:" We will continue to pray for all of the family and Church family as well.

Hmm. I think I figured out Longtooth's secret on why when trials of life are thrown at him he just comes back even stronger.
Take care my friend, our prayers for you continue.

Thank You Father for Four healing hand! Thanks you Venus for the update and let us know when he's off the walker.

Mars & I made it by there tonight. He looked like he was tired and hurting some.
He's off the walker. The doctor told him that he has to change positions frequently, which means that he can't merely lay down or sit up all the time. It looks like he's doing this.
I appreciate your prayers. I will let you know when I think he's out of the woods; hopefully it won't be long.
