Specific Prayer Request - Mia's Surgery

Our little Mia will be having surgery on her eye on Monday morning.  After seeing the specialist for over a year.... we have decided this is the best course of action seeing how we will be moving overseas this year.  Her left eye continues to turn WAY out when she is tired or looking at things far away.  The doctor will work on the muscles around her eye during the surgery to help turn it back in.

If we neglect to correct this - by the time she is 7-8 the eye can begin to stay out all of the time...and it could potentially just quit focusing.

We would be so blessed if all of our friends, family, and prayer partners would join with us to pray specifically for this to be a complete healing for Mia.  There is still a chance that this will only fix the turning by 80% - but we are praying for God to make this healing COMPLETE and WHOLE.

Pray that her eyes will be COMPLETELY healed, and that the alignment will be PERFECT.  Pray for the doctor to have divine wisdom during surgery and for it to go PERFECTLY.

I am asking everyone to please consider praying for Mia with us at specific times over the next 3 days.  Would you please take a few moments to pray for her at 7:00 AM & 7:00 PM until Monday?  That would be 7PM Sat night, 7AM Sun morning, 7PM Sun night, and 7AM Monday morning right before the surgery.

We would also be honored if you would have your CHURCH family pray for her during your Sunday services.  "Again, I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven. - Matthew 18:19


We will post an update on Monday as soon as we are out of surgery.  Thank you so MUCH for your love, prayers, and support!


Hopefully after next week I will get back to my regular weekly posts!

We are praying for Mia, the surgeon and you all. Maggie had the same surgery when she was four and her alignment is now perfect according to her doctor. Love to you all!
