We have you in our prayer; as we are Ends of the Earth Global Prayer Towers and Centers around the world. Proverbs 4:22 says that there is LIFE IN THE BLOOD and that HE IS THE HEALTH UNTO ALL OF OUR FLESH. That word HEALTH means “MEDICINE” Through the Blood of Jesus; God is Jehovah Raffa our healer. Elohim created the body; God Almight can heal the body and make it whole once again. We are believing and trusting God for his healing & deliverance. God bless you all.

Awesome news regarding his surgery today from his cousin:
“Good news! Went through surgery well—sewed his stomach back up! The doctors are baffled how one of the bullets went through both kidneys yet missed his spine (we know how). Liver looks good. Lungs: good. Dr. said millimeters…just millimeters. Praise Jesus! Thank you for your continues prayers—please keep it up!”
Hang in there brother…there are a lot of people praying for you! Thank you so much for your dedicated service!!
You are in my prayers, brother. Keep fighting! To D/S Cassaday’s family and friends, your law enforcement family loves you and is keeping you in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

I am continuing to pray for Jeremy. Thanks to the family for keeping us updated. I have a brother and two nephews who are officers. Keep praying. ”When my heart is overwhelmed, lead me to the Rock that is higher than I”
We have been praying for you, Jeremy. You are a hero, and we also know you are a fighter! Your wife and your family needs you, as does our community, and we are grateful for the sacrifices ALL of our men and women in law enforcement make every single day.

From Deputy Jeremy Cassady’s sister Jerilyn Hughes and Lisa McLaughlin..Jeremy is beginning to become responsive to questions with gestures and squeezing. They are reducing the medicine used to induce coma and weaning him off the ventilator. KEEP PRAYING, please. It is because of the prayers of all of you that he is still alive. Thank you.
