One of our missionaries was visiting with Apolonia and her family a few hours ago and Apolonia was in bed with very severe stomach pain.  She was in so much pain that she was crying which is not normal for her at all.  She didn’t want to go to the doctor or hospital at that time and said she would wait and see how she was tomorrow and if she wasn’t better then she would go.

Just a few minutes ago the missionary got a call stating that she is getting worse very quickly and so he is taking her to the hospital now.

Please pray for healing for whatever is going on with Apolonia.  Please also pray for peace for her and relief from this pain.  And please pray for peace for her daughters.  They lost their dad a few years ago so it is probably very scary for them to see their mom so sick and getting taken to the hospital.

We will send out an update once we know what is going on and in the interim we will be making sure that Apolonia and her girls are well cared for.  Thank you for your prayers!
