Hello, dear friends!
i have an urgent prayer request and a story for you!! We are up against some really dark stuff here, and I would love for you to keep Miriam in your prayers!
The Story:
Miriam is the oldest daughter of Madame Evanston, Butch and Trisha's housekeeper and Christian extraodinare! She is a widow in her mid30s who cares for her 4 children and her sister's 3 kids. Her sister is also a widow and working in Port Au Prince to help support her family. Mdm. Evanston used to live next door to the local witch doctor. While he performed voodoo ceremonies in his front yard, she would stand in hers, raise her arms, and pray out aloud for him. He had her arrested for disturbance of the peace.
When the magistrate found out that Mdm. Evanston worked for Butch and Trish, she was immediately released. Butch was able to find her housing in another part of town, and things seemed to be going smoothly until 3 weeks ago, when Miriam got sick.
Miriam is 14 years old. She began having torturous stomach pains, so bad that 4 grown ups had to hold her down as she writhed in pain. A few times, when the pain was at its worst, she would speak nonsense, talking out of her head, and then pass out in pain. She has visited the hospital 4 times, and no one can seem to figure out the problem.
i was asked to examine her on Monday. She had an additional symptom of constipation for 8 days. Otherwise, I found nothing concerning on exam. Her pain had quieted down the day that I evaluated her, and I could find no reason to send her to Port for a $600 ultrasound. We discussed some treatments for pain and constipation with the caveat to return immediately to the hospital if her pain increased again.
Today she went back to the hospital.
The Prayer Request:
Please pray for her complete healing and her protection from dark spiritual forces! I am concerned that there is something going on here that transcends the physical realm. Please pray, and pray hard!!
