GOD IS OUR HEALER
Prayer Request
Please pray for Mathias, a brilliant young man born again and hopes to be his family’s breadwinner. Pray that God will keep providing for his medical bills since MCF has to fully support his medication and treatment. Let us trust in the Lord for a healing miracle for Mathias.
Background
Mathias was rescued by the Mully Children’s Family in 2016 and joined grade nine at Dr Charles Mulli Secondary School. After completing his grade twelve, he enrolled in Machakos University at the start of 2022, taking a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology.
Growing up, Mathias was sick quite often, and his poor, uneducated, unemployed parents could not afford his medical treatment as they also believed their son had been bewitched. He was a child whose parents saw him as an added burden to the family’s meagre income.
After his rescue by MCF, Mathias underwent several medical examinations to establish the cause of his sickness. In 2020 he was finally diagnosed with Polycythemia Vera (excessive production of red blood cells) at Kenyatta National Hospital. He attends three monthly clinics, i.e. Cardiology, Endocrinology, and Hematology, where several investigations are done. Additionally, he is under medication and undergoes phlebotomy (removal of blood) on average two times a month.
James 5:14-15 (KJV)
Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.
