Would A Bad Back Stop You?

It Didn’t Stop Operation Joy!

Paul recently hurt his back and recovery has been slow. He decided to have a walk out one evening locally a few days ago to get some extra exercise. He took some food bags in case there was anyone congregating outside the local shops. He came across D and J who are regular contacts, and with them was R, who he couldn't remember meeting before. It turned out that R's mother had died that day having been suffering from dementia. He talked with Paul for quite some time, mentioning that in times past he had been to church in several Manchester venues. Paul had the feeling that R had been put across his path and that there was some purpose in the back problem that he was suffering.

Please pray with for R, and for healing for Paul’s back.
