Urgent Prayer Request

Beloved,
In early July we hosted a med team at our ministry center. Each morning we began with a praise and worship service presenting Jesus to many people for the first time. We never know who the Lord touches or what the future will hold. A woman came to one of the services with her 18 month old. She never came again.
About a week ago we heard of a woman in the local hospital. Her husband's girlfriend had pushed her into a vat of boiling beer and held her down in order to kill her! All the people in the bar ran away so they would not have to be a witness!!!! The skin on her entire body was burned!
Miraculously, the wife did not die! She has been in the local hospital approx 3 weeks. The day I heard of the situation I spoke with the deacons and pastor at our ministry center and said we had to do something. We needed to be a witness for Christ.
The following day Patrice and I went to the hospital and spoke with the nurse and doctor. We spoke with the mother in law. We entered the hospital room and prayed for the woman who was sleeping.
Celine and I prayed last night that the Lord would bring the woman to a point of being able to understand the gospel and to give us words that would be comforting and yet compelling for her.
This AM Patrice went to the hospital to see what meds were needed for her and to get an update. The woman was awake and he was able to speak with her and pray for her.
He advised the Lord had saved her physical life to give her an opportunity to hear His Word. She told him she had visited our church during the med team. She said she had enjoyed the music but once leaving forgot everything. A few nights ago, 3AM she awoke and was humming the song....over and over and over..... the song says the satan is calling and God is calling....you must choose who you will follow!!!!
Please please pray...Celine and I are going to the hospital in about an hour to share the gospel with her.
Please pray for us and her.
I regret I do not know her name.....but our Glorious Lord does!!!!!
Thank you!!!!!!!
