Prayer is requested for Rannie Childress, lead pastor in GCI’s congregation in Attalla, AL. Rannie is hospitalized with pneumonia in one lung, resulting in extreme shortness of breath. He is retaining lots of fluid and they are treating him with antibiotics and steroids.
Though he is doing a bit better, Rannie’s battle with illness continues. As he noted in an email informing people of his illness,
Christ is with us in good times and bad, including times of good health and bad. Let us trust our mighty God to move into, not around our troubles, and let him show us once again his mighty, awesome power!
Cards may be sent to:

Here’s an update on Rannie — he came home from the hospital today (12/7) and is doing better. Thanks for the prayers!
Praying for you brother. The flu, which seems to be leading in many cases to pneumonia, is spreading like wildfire down here in Lower Alabama (Donna and I got it, as have our Alabama children and grandchildren). Take good care and get well!
Thanks Rannie and rest up my brother–people are depending on you and the important ministry God has given you–thanks for the update Ted–certainly lots to pray about–NE
praying for you… May you regain strength and be back leading your flock soon… GOD IS WITH YOU! in prayer my brother!
Continued Prayers for you, my dear friend!
My prayers are with you and Shirley both as you call upon the Lord to move “into” these troubled waters. I’m reminded of Psalm 34:19, “The righteous person may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all;”
Wishing you grace and peace!
Get well quickly, Rannie! You are one of the most joyous people I know, so I am sure people are missing you in the neighborhood!!
So sorry to hear that you are not feeling well. So happy that you are in good spirit. Let us take this time to continue to Rest in HIM. Take care and praying for your speedy recovery. We love you both!
Praying for you as well Mr. Ted. Take care
