Pray For Healing For Dan Carl

I have been working closely with Dan and Liz Carl, our distribution team leaders in Haiti, for over a year. Together, we have developed strategies to reach the entire children and youth population with the gospel message in the next six years and have started the work to make that happen. Dan has recently been diagnosed with a skin cancer issue. Please review the note we received from the Carls yesterday and remember Dan in your prayers.


Dear Friends and Prayer Partners,

Greetings from Haiti. This is very last minute since we were asked to move quickly. Dan received some test results back last week from a mole that had been removed from his back a few weeks ago. The tests indicated that there was Malignant Melanoma Skin Cancer present. After consulting with a plastic surgeon yesterday, the decision was made to do a second operation to remove a larger section of the tissue to confirm there is no other Melanoma present. The surgery is scheduled for today at 10:00 AM here in Haiti.

This is being done as an out patient procedure with a local anesthesia. Normally, complete removal of the infected tissue is the treatment for this type of disease. The doctors believe that the Melanoma was still very shallow and was only beginning to go deeper into tissue below the skin. Therefore, after the operation, the tissue removed will undergo another test to confirm there is no Melanoma present.

Please pray that God would lead the surgeon to remove any remaining Malignant Melanoma that could be present. Our faith is in the Great Physician, Jesus Christ who is the only one who can heal Dan's body with or without the use of the surgeon. To Him be all Glory, Honor, and Praise!

Thank you for your prayers.

Love,
Dan & Liz
