A prayer request
Free Church Moderator, Rev Calum Iain Macleod, has shared this urgent prayer request:
I would like to reach out to our wider church family with an urgent prayer request for Caleb, a very sick little boy aged two who has been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer (Neuroblastoma).
Caleb’s parents are Rev Andrew and Eilidh Macleod. Andrew (Mowgli) is minister of New City Church Dunfermline.
Some of you are already aware of Caleb’s circumstances following an earlier appeal for prayer from Rev Derek Lamont, a friend and colleague of Andrew.
Caleb is currently having chemotherapy and is receiving critical care at the Royal Hospital for Sick Children and Young People, Edinburgh.
Please pray for Caleb and encourage others to prayer. Pray for effective medical intervention. Pray for recovery and healing. Pray for strength and resilience for Andrew and Eilidh, along with Isla, Caleb’s big sister, at this extremely difficult and anxious time for them all as a family. Pray that they will continue to know God’s near presence, his peace, and the embrace of his everlasting arms.
Please consider having a concentrated time of prayer for Caleb at your midweek prayer meeting and congregational prayer groups.
‘Hear my voice when I call, Lord; be merciful to me and answer me.’ Psalm 27:7
