    Our family is literally in constant prayer (and some fasting) for Peter and your family. Our hearts are breaking with love for you. I am reminded that “The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much” (James 5:16). The prayers for Peter are just astounding but the God he serves who hears is more incredible yet, who will answer our prayers.
    Phil 1:6 And I am SURE of this, that He who began a good work in you will bring it to completion. We know God has saved him alive and has a plan for his usefulness in the Kingdom of God. We pray for full restoration and many souls added to the kingdom.
    Thank you also for the Godly example you are setting and I pray God grant’s you great victory through your faith in this trial.
    With ALL our love, Patrick, Rhonda, Will, Audrey, Jordan, Maggie, Noah, Mary M’Cheyne, LaurelAnna Joyner

    Dear Helms,
    Please add our prayer network of friends to the number. My parents in Arkansas are on their knees with weeping, beseeching the Lord for Peter, as well as their church and friends and our friends in Ok and VA and our church in GA and SC. They are calling us for more updates and we point them to these sites.
    We are hearing from all these how powerful your testimony has been for them to read and how God is using it in their lives and the classes they teach.
    Thank you also for this blog for us non-facebookers. I want you to know we are with you in this. We are so VERY thankful to have had Selah and Peter visit with us in June.

    As you know Teresa, me, and the whole Beck family are in constant prayer for all of you. I like the blog better than face book but I am overwhelmed seeing the amount of praying Christians writing on face book.

    This will be easier for me to read the updates though. It is amazing how the Lord has blessed so many people through your trials. God bless all of you, my heart breaks for you, and I thank God for you.

    Grace and peace to you all in Christ Jesus,
    Ken

    Dear Helms Family,
    Our daughter, Rhonda Joyner, requested prayer for your precious son, Peter. Our friends and their churches in Arkansas
    are claiming God’s promises and praying for Peter’s recovery – “nothing is too hard for God.” Your sweet family is so dear
    to Rhonda and her family. We love you and will be praying fervently for Peter and all of your family.

    May God bless you with peace, comfort and strength.
    Ron and Jo Ann Gross

    “Be strong and corageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”

    I just heard about Peter. I am so sorry. I wanted you to know that the Vanderpools are joining others everywhere in prayer for Peter and your family. We serve a God of healing and miracles. May he strengthen and encourage and give you peace. Our love to each of you. Leslie Vanderpool
