I am home for a few hours this morning getting a package ready to send to one of your student workers in my department, the Management and Marketing Department. Matt Fay has cancer. It is a fast growing kind that they will be treating with chemotherapy drugs starting on Thursday. Today he is getting a chest catheter for doing blood tests and taking the chemo drugs. He and his family, mom and dad, need your prayers. They live in Clinton, Tennessee.

Twenty years ago, I had a fast growing cancer in my lung. I had a chest catheter and was treated with chemotherapy drugs.... Because of God's good grace and my doctors and nurses, I survived... I had people all over the country of every faith imaginable praying for me.

Please, have everyone that you know pray for Matt - God listens.......

Thank you, John

I will put Matt on my prayer list that goes out weekly to well over a hundred or more individuals and churches. May the Lord use you to minister to Matt and his family as you walk by faith with confidence in the King of kings. James 5:13-18
