Prayer ClosetThe place to post prayer requests & testimonies. All new requests will auto-stick in Fellowship Hall for 48 hours.
My Dad has gotten to the point that he can no longer drive because of his extremely poor vision. He is in good health for his age (late 80s) other than his vision has deteriorated so much that he has had to have his driver's license pulled. I don't want him to hurt himself or others. So, this is the best for now.
Please pray that God will heal his eyes. This is very sad for all of us. We made an appointment for him in a city a few hours away where there is a large eye clinic and many specialists. He has macular degeneration and has had several laser procedures.
Can anyone recommend a specialist at Mayo Clinic or any other place? We would be willing to drive to Cleveland Clinic or any of the Mayo Clinics. I did a check and discovered that the Mayo Clinic has clinics in Florida and Arizona, as well as the one in Minnesota.

They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

We took Dad to a big city clinic where the physicians do research and are supposed to use the most recent equipment and techniques. Apparently, the local ophthalmologists have been giving him the best treatment. Please pray for him ....Pray for his wife. She is really taking this hard. Both of them need prayer for a deeper walk with God. Please help me to pray for them. There is a possibility that they will go to church with us tomorrow morning. Thanks to all of you here who said you would pray. I read requests and pray and don't always respond and I know others do, too.
Doctors are going to decide if Dad can have any more procedures to help to improve his vision. He may be having another procedure tomorrow (late morning). Please pray for him.
Jane, I'm praying for the GREAT Physician to be guiding the hands and minds of the physicians here to the best way to treat your dad. And also praying that this experience will draw your Dad into a close/closer relationship with Himself. That's the most important part.
