Hi, please pray for my permanent resident processing. I have been in the process since November 2023, when I started the provincial process. And it finally got received in the federal level in November 2024. But since then, I haven’t received any update. It has been such a stressful, mentally tired and frustrating process. I got accepted to the university 3 years in a row and for all those years I had to withdraw my application because of this process. I asked for prayers in this matter. May God put his hands on my application to get process faster so I can start university still this year and on me to get peace in his willingness. I have rounds of anxiety and overthinking days. Please, help me praying for this

please pray for my 36 year old son. He has struggled with anxiety and an alcohol addiction since covid. He moved back home after he lost his job in another city and is now working two jobs. He started AA a couple weeks ago with the encouragement of a friend who goes with him. Please pray for him to overcome his addiction and also for him to be able to find an apartment that is affordable so he can become independent and happy once again. Thank you and God Bless.

My oldest sister Dana was diagnosed last year with metastatic breast cancer that had moved into her liver. She is a fighter and has lived with some form of cancer or another for the past 23 years. This last diagnosis though came with a treatment with no end date - then she caught that flu bug that was going around last month and ended up in the hospital with kidney issues as she wasn't able to keep any liquids in. She is back in GRH now with one of her kidneys no longer working, and her other struggling to continue on, she is also showing signs of issues with her pancreas -- all while taking Herceptin treatments for her cancer.
We are asking for healing prayers for her as she still has a lot of life to live and a grandson to help raise. She is strong and a fighter, but this is a lot.

Last August my father was diagnosed with mild Alzheimer's which started my sisters and I on a journey with him that he does not want to submit to. We have moved him into a retirement home, but he has (until recently) refused to let us sell his home in order to further financially support him. Due to poor planning, and assuming the other sibling was taking care of things his house went without anyone checking in on it in the past month or so - we learned last week that there had been a leak and now the house and most of it's contents are destroyed. We are all devastated and don't know how to tell him that his nest egg and the history of his life is covered in mold. We are 90% sure that this won't be covered by insurance as well so we are struggling with the financial and emotional impact all at once.
Please pray that through some miracle insurance comes through or that we can find enough people with skill and know-how to help us quickly clean out all that isn't destroyed and still have enough money from the sale of the property to sustain him through these last years of his life. He is otherwise healthy, which means he was really counting on the sale of his home to set himself up in a small home separate from the retirement home where he currently resides.

My husband, Jim, had a massive heart attack in Feb. 26th, he had 2 stents put in, then in Saturday, March 1st he had heart failure. He’s still in the hospital. There has been some positive steps forward but also some setbacks. One being ventricular tachycardia. He had no pulse and had CPR and 2 shocks to get his pulse back. Another similar episode this morning at 12:30am. It’s been an emotional stressful week and a half. He is having a hard time sleeping as well which he needs for healing. We ask for prayer for the medical team, Jim and our family for strength, peace, wisdom and comfort during this valley we find ourselves. His heart is very weak. He may need surgery for a defibrillator on Monday. One hour at a time. We know God is in control!! Thanks for your prayers!!

My dog of 16 years is really sick and getting to the point of saying goodbye. I am 22 so she has literally been with me almost my whole life. I love her so much it hurts to think of never seeing her again. She is my first dog so I have never even been through this process before. It is so hard for me and my family but what helps us is knowing she’s tired of fighting and ready to sleep forever, free of pain. I just need prayer for my family and I to get through this extremely difficult time of sorrow. Especially help me be able to finish off my last year of university strong while grieving my dog. She is my best friend and I love her more than anything that I just don’t want to say goodbye but also don’t want to see her suffering anymore. I also pray for my other dog and how she processes the loss of her sister since we can’t tell her what has happened. Just really need prayer that God will be holding our hands through this process, especially my dogs little paws inviting her to doggy heaven. Thank you for your prayer

I ask for your prayers for my dad. A couple weeks ago, he had emergency surgery on both his hands for flesh eating disease. He was discharged from hospital late last week. He has daily dressing changes. After discharge his one had started to become infected again. He was restarted on antibiotics.
Now, today he was rushed by ambulance to hospital as he fainted. It has been discovered that he has a bleeding ulcer and will require surgery for this.
I ask for your prayers for healing for my dad and to uplift my mom in prayer as she is struggling and is exhausted.
Thank you and God bless!

Please pray for my granddaughter who is in the 2nd trimester of her pregnancy. The beautiful child she is carrying is struggling with some serious developmental issues. If by God’s grace she carries this baby to full term, he will need life saving surgery. If things progress negatively during the pregnancy then they will do the surgery in utero. Please God wrap your loving arms around this child and shield him with your love and care. Thank you to the amazing prayer warriors at Creekside

Dear friends,
I humbly ask for your prayers for Ha-young, Ye-young, Ui-seop, Jung-won, Eun-tae, In-sook, and your beloved ones. May God lead us, not on the paths we desire or know, but on the paths that He desires and delights in.
Please pray that while we are still in the flesh, we may cast away all idols, come to know God according to His written Word, and truly taste His goodness.
May this entire journey be guided by God's peace and protection, and may the undeniable transformation in all of us come solely through the one and only God.
Thank you for standing with us in prayer.

For the past 2 plus weeks, I have been feeling dizzy in the evenings and sometimes during the day.
My diet has changed and I have eliminated processed foods and seed oils from my diet, but even with the changes, this feeling still persists.
I feel concerned that it might be something else and I am praying for God to heal whatever this issue is.
I have a Dr's appointment in a week and I ask for your prayers that God heals this issue and answers my prayer.
I thank you in advance.
God Bless.

Pray for my marriage.
I got married after learning about my pregnancy. Our relationship has suffered greatly from the stress of living together and being new parents. We have both treated eachother horribly. I feel the pressure is always on me to apologize and reconcile while I never hear any apologies or regret from him regarding his own actions.
I have to drag my husband to church and he almost always has a reason not to come with me and our child. Please pray that God will enter his heart and he will become a strong and devout father and husband to us both and our marriage will flourish.

In my last prayer request I posted on here, I asked for prayer about an upcoming nuclear stress heart test I was going to have. I was nervous about it. Praise I had peace then and it went well. My results were good. Pray I won’t be afraid of getting cancer from it and won’t get it.
Continue to pray for my nephew to be healed of lymphoma. For encouragement for him. He didn’t need to go on oxygen then when I last wrote. Pray for his mom too that she won’t give up and they both will put Jesus #1.
Thanks for praying!

A few months ago I asked for prayer for my dear friend Steven - a regular at Creekside. Sadly after his battle with cancer which started in the fall of 2024 we lost him this morning at 6am. I had been sick for a few weeks and unable to see him one last time. I arrived after church this morning to be told by one of the palliative nurses that he passed.
He was a remarkable person who never let the fact that he was in a wheelchair with MS stop him. He earned his UW undergrad degree and loved to learn. He always made you feel like you were the most important person in the world and shared great thoughtful insights into many topics. In short, he was not defined by his situation - - a lesson for all of us.
He will be missed but now pain free. I miss you my peer, friend and brother. Please pray for his only sibling Judy as she prepares for a difficult week.

Thank you everyone for your prayers and support for my mother’s funeral yesterday. It was a lovely service. I am now asking for specific prayer mainly for my husband. He has been grieving the death of my mother and before we had even been able to go home from the funeral he received a call on the passing of his uncle. He is in charge of both these estates and was close with both. His heart is overwhelmed. He has already taken close to a week off work for my mother and will now need to travel to Sault Ste. Marie for his uncle. There are no family members left except a sister with special needs, his uncle’s bed-ridden daughter who has said when her father is gone, she will commit suicide as she has nothing left to live for and nobody left to care for her. She has not answered the phone since we found out yesterday. My husband also has a 90 year old father with poor health, but the uncle and cousin will not have anything to do with him. I am fearful of my husband’s health deteriorating from all this stress and grief.

Thank you for your prayers. My mother passed away Monday February 27th with her family all present with her. Your prayers helped as there were difficulties getting her granddaughter flown in prior to her passing but with prayer it was accomplished. A small miracle that it did as there were a few hoops to jump through to get her here especially after the first flight wouldn’t allow her to board without proper documentation. She was able to board a different flight a few hours later. We never thought mom would be able to hold on as long as she did. Thank God for things to work out as they did. Pray now for strength in the coming days and professors at both her grandchildren’s colleges to show grace and understanding as they will be missing their studies for about a week. One is in nursing so it may be difficult to return to her hospital placement so soon after spending all that time at the hospital with her grandmother.

My mother attended creekside online from Toronto every Sunday for years. She is in the end stages of life. She has interstitial lung disease and caught pneumonia. Please pray that she hangs on until Sunday evening so that her granddaughter who is flying in has a chance to say goodbye. And even more so pray for her comfort and peace as she is scared about not being able to breathe.

Please pray for my nephew Brett and my sister Anita, his mom. Brett has lymphoma in his lungs and one is big by his heart. He now needs oxygen and my sister is finding it hard to get him some as he wants to be at home! It is really sad and they both have had a long, hard road. He has had 3 open heart surgeries in his lifetime. Pray the cancer will shrink and be gone in Jesus’ name! His birthday is in Feb. He will be 22. This is her only child.
Pray also for our whole family as it’s hard on everybody, especially my parents as they are living together now as Anita can’t work now.
Pray also for me. I am worried about a nuclear heart test I have to do which is this Saturday morning. Pray it will go well and nothing will go wrong. Or maybe I won’t have to do it.
