Please be prayerful for Bro. Allen and Sis. Alisa Ricketts!

Allen and I were up at the U of Chicago yesterday because I had to have a brain MRI. He started not feeling good and by the time we got home, he was in alot of pain. At St. James they found that where the small intestine joins the large intestine, it was twisted with a closed loop. So he is having surgery at noon today. The surgeon is hopeful he can do it laparoscopically.

Prayer update from Allen Ricketts:

I am at home recovering well. Things are starting to get back to normal. I do have an appointment with a GI doctor in Chicago in August. My blockage was a direct result of my surgery 3 years ago. You could also add that Alisa is going to Chicago on the 15th and 16th to start the clinical trial. It's been a long process and still a lot of questions.
