My family has to move out in 3 weeks, and we still haven't found a house to move into, I'm the eldest daughter in my family, only being 19, and I can see it's taking a toll on my parents, just with packing boxes and knowing we haven't found anywhere to move in to, they're getting older too and I can tell they don't have the strength and energy to do this again, since we moved every single year, I was just asking that you guys could pray for us to find a house, a house that suits our needs, and just to give my family strength, Courage and hope to get through this together.

UPDATE 3-1-25 - He was discharged from the hospital & transferred to the Galesburg Homeless Shelter. We have no other information at this time. But, God knows! And God knows the plans He has for Ed’s life!
Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
2-26-28 - Prayers for Ed! The house he was renting burned down a week ago in the early morning of 2/18. He was taken to a Rockford Hospital on Tuesday (2/18) via helicopter. He will remain in the hospital likely until at least Sunday. He is being treated for smoke inhalation & severe burns.
He has lost everything. He needs a place to live and no family members to turn to for help. He needs our prayers!

UPDATE 2-21-25 - I know it was mentioned in church, but I wanted to follow up here as well. I’m praising God for His favor and faithfulness! My previous apartment got rented out to someone very quickly and I have already received back the money that I had to pay to break my lease agreement. God is so good! Thank you all for your prayers!
Prayer - 1-20-25
Please pray that my former apartment complex will find someone to lease my old apartment to right away so that the money I have to spend to break my lease will come right back to me when they lease it out.
Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.

Oh Lord God, we lift those grieving people to you and ask that they be drawn to You & to feel your comfort and presence along with New or renewed relationships with U Jesus Christ our Savior ! Peace and hope to be restored in your name Jesus!!
2Cor. 1:3-7
“All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is our merciful Father and the source of all comfort. He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us. For the more we suffer for Christ, the more God will shower us with his comfort through Christ. Even when we are weighed down with troubles, it is for your comfort and salvation! For when we ourselves are comforted, we will certainly comfort you. Then you can patiently endure the same things we suffer. We are confident that as you share in our sufferings, you will also share in the comfort God gives us.”
