July 2023 Update from Brooke Bateman

Thank you on behalf of my family,  for your prayers. Please continue to lift up Mike and my mom Stacey. 

PTL Mike placed his faith in Jesus Christ this past week. I’m in awe of the body of Christ and incredibly grateful for those who have been by my family’s side in such a time as this. My mom especially needed it. 

Mike is incredibly weak, actively dying, but he is a fighter and now has another chance of life with a healthy liver match and transplant surgery scheduled in the next hour. His surgery will take place at UCLA hospital. I am in awe of the amount of people and the gifts and wisdom God used through them to have helped Mike survive this long. Of course ultimately it is our Lord who decides when it’s our last breath and Mike is in his hands. 

But my mom especially has hope and her faith has grown so much during this time. 

The liver transplant was successful so far. We are just waiting for Mike to wake up. 

I may want to update the prayer I sent and add a few things about the Romanian Bible translation dedication we had this month.
