Pls. PRAY for my friend Sara Beth, who had a biopsy today for a cyst removal from her breast area / results Friday. Looks to be cancerous, key is, it is small and hopes (& prayers) are that it has been caught in time before spreading to other areas. May the Grace of the Lord be w/ Sara Beth in this time of uncertainty. May his will be done!

Thank you all and God Bless.
