I just got a call today that my pastor has gone in to the hospital with four blocked arteries, and he's having emergency quadruple bypass surgery. He wasn't at Wednesday service yesterday because he wasn't feeling well, but we had no idea it was this serious. So, please pray for him, his family, and our church.

You've got mine Adam. Please keep us posted.

Scary stuff.
He has the BIG guy on his side by my wishes and prayers to him and his flock.

Adam, I'm thinking of and praying for this gentleman... On the plus side, he's got a better line to the man upstairs than most of us!...
Well done to you for bringing it to our attention... That's the beauty of prayer... It can't hurt!...
May God bless and protect you, yours, your pastor, and the rest of the congregation... It's such a loss to be without a beloved clergyman even if just for a short time...
Like Rose, I'd appreciate it if you could keep us informed...
God bless...

I just talked to a friend from church about an hour ago, and according to her, he is actually in surgery now. If he's stable, I plan to visit him tomorrow. Thanks for all the prayers and support.
Prayers for you Pastor :cuddle; What is his name, Adam? Thanks for letting us know.

Praying for Pastor Paul this evening.. (It's 10.40pm in Ireland)... I've also lit a candle for him, and if anybody else can do likewise over the next day or two, it would be nice... If we could agree a time that we all light a candle and pray for a couple of minutes, maybe the power of our collective thoughts and prayers will help Paul...
If somebody can suggest a time???... I know it's different times in different members countries, but we can give it a go anyway... Can't hurt... I'm easy in relation to the time... I'm usually up a few times during the night checking on Mum anyway, so I can fit in with other people's suggestions...
Just a thought... Will anybody be joining me???....
Love to all...

Thanks for the update, Adam. Pastor Paul will continue to be in my prayers for successful surgery and full recovery.
-
I'll keep him in my prayers. I hope he'll be okay!
-
I will pray for pastor Paul as well!
-
Again, thanks for the support and prayers. I got an update last night that Pastor Paul came through surgery and it was very successful. The last I heard, he was still under some sedation, but they will be gradually easing that. If all goes well, we should be able to visit him Monday or Tuesday, and they are saying he may be able to go home in just a week if he continues to do well. We are praising God for this positive news. I'll continue to post updates.

I am happy to h ear he made it through the surgery last night. He is still in my prayers :grouphug;
-
:waving; Adam, sounds like things are going in a positive direction. I will continue to pray for his recovery. :cuddle;
-
:grouphug;
-
Please let him know that he has many friends around the world praying for his full recovery. :grouphug;
-
He will still be in my prayers. Remember short visits because he needs his rest.
:yahoo;

Adam, how is Pastor Paul doing now? Still saying prayers for him. :cuddle;
-
Pastor Paul got to go home yesterday morning. He's doing well, even though he still has quite a bit of pain. He will have a six to eight week recovery period, but the doctors expect him to recover completely. They were expecting to have to put in a pacemaker, but fortunately he didn't need one. So, it looks like everything is going to go well for him.

Adam, I have been wondering how Pastor Paul is doing now? We would love to hear an update.
-
He's still having some throat discomfort from the breathing tube that was in during the surgery, but other than that, he's doing very well. He was at church last Sunday and it was great to see him. He is hoping to be preaching again by the end of the month.
