Amen!!!
Patsy..I am praying for you and your son….
Dearest Patsy & Family, I was at the WOF in Oklahoma City when we were told about Marty. Upon arriving back home you and Marty were put on my church prayer list and daily prayer group. I know there are lots of people praying for yall. Praise be to GOD for hearing everyones prayers GOD-IS-GOOD! I am so glad to hear he is doing so much better! You will always be in my heart and prayers, you are such an inspiration to me with your faith and trust in the Lord. I am going through a situation with my 43 year old son who is in kidney failure and being put on dialosis , he also is facing two more surgeries to try and save his foot, so maybe you and the WOF staff could pray for us. As a mom you know how it is no matter how old they are they are still your child. Thank you for Patsy for being the strong person you are and encouraging so many women in such a special way, until we meet again my love to you!
Patsy,
I am sorry to hear that your son has been so sick, but am thrilled to know that GOD has put him on the road to recovery! I will continue to pray for him, and the family. For strength, patience, and a ready and real sense of humor. May HE continue to hold you all close to HIS heart, and bless your socks off!!!!!! Thank you for sharing with us, and giving us the privilege of interceding on your behalf. (Your son has a great name)!!!!!!
Praise God. I'm thankful for the prayers lifted for Patsy's son. She is an inspiration to us. Saw her at Greensboro, NC and heart went out to her and her family. Even though she was going through this tragedy, she was still the most inspirational speaker. Thank you for being there on Friday.
Hell Ms. Clairmont, even if I had never seen you and heard your awesome personality rush from your throat toward thousands of women to delight and bring joy and hope, I would still pray for your son. May God make His face to shine upon your son, yourself and your entire family. I have had hearty laughs just from listening to you and I pray for many hearty laugher for Marty, you and all your family and close friends. Blessings and God's unmerited favor. Judith E. Barnes, Snellville, Georgia
So sorry, please forgive me, my salutation should have read 'Hello Ms. Clairmont.' Blessings,Judith Barnes
When we count on Jesus…….ALL things are possibe! He will NEVER leave us or forsake us!!! Patsy thank you for sharing a sliver of your pain with us during your Ft. Lauderdale visit…remember it is A Grand New Day!!! My little girl (12) has had 5 brain surgeries, so I can definately relate to being the Mom that just can't make it all better with a kiss and a chocolate chip cookie
We are currently adopting a little girl from Russia and she is already pulling at my heart strings…and I haven't even met her. I think those letters MOM…were really supposed to be WOW! Bless you all!!!!
And ALL the sisters say AMEN!!! Praise God! Goosebumps still emerge on my arms thinking of praying in Houston for him!!!!!
Dearest Patsy,
Praise be to God for the good news Marty is getting better. It is not easy for a parent to deal with a sick child no matter how old they are!! May God continue to give your family strength and Marty healing. God’s blessings to you all. Deanne
Patsy, To God alone be the Glory, to God alone be the Praise! All things are possible in HIM! He is faithful and True. I’d like to take this opportunity to request prayer for my very good friend, Donna Granger who had lung cancer surgery on September 9, 2009 and is still in the ICU. She has started recovering, had gotten pnuemonia, began recovering, got pnuemonia again, lung collapsed, now has Acute Repirtory Disorder, and just on Saturday, November 28th, she started having problems with her heart and kidneys, and she is now sedated on the respirator. The Doctors said they have seen people pull through this but they didn’t think she would pull through. Can I please ask for pray for Donna, her husband Don and daughters, Jamie & Kristina who are all very broken. They need the LORD to hold them and gird them up……..this has been a long hard journey, and I know that GOD still works Miracles “With GOD ‘ALL’ things are possible”…thank you so much everyone and may the LORD bless each of you in great and mighty ways that you know not of!
Praise the Lord Patsy! I’m so glad your son is feeling better, sitting in a chair again and able to talk to you! God is Good! Blessings for a safe and healthy Christmas. Lonnie, Minneapolis, MN

You are such a sweet lady of God, Patsy. I will be praying for a quick healing for Marty.
WOW Patsy,
Here it is WAAAY past my bedtime and I am just reeling from you WOF presentation in Ft. Lauderdale!!!Patsy,
Way to go girls (and guys)!! What a fabulous testimony to the power of the Holy Spirit working in our lives.
My thoughts & prayers are with you and your family as you continue to be at Marty’s side during his recovery.
My husband, Cliff, was diagnosed with Choroidal Melanoma in August so we have been on perverbeal roller coaster ride since then. What do people do if they don’t have faith in GOD????!!! I don’t know how we would survive!
Thank you for sharing your faith and helping the rest of us be brave and know that whatever happens Gods will may be done.
With Love & Appreciation,
Sandy Steffen

I was in a very similar situation 2 years ago (reading your updates brings back memories) …. my family didn’t think I’d pull thru. I made a complete recovery! It is a long road with gaining your strength back, but it sounds like Marty is on his way. Blessings to you during this time. Prayer is powerful and you have so many praying for you!
God Bless You!

Patsy,
I was at the Houston Conference. You are great. I was even more astonished you came after hearing about your son. I feel so blessed to have been in your presence and getting to pray along with all at the conference. The Lord is so cool to heal his faithful servants son, as his faithful servant came and did her role for our Awesome God. What a beautiful thing to watch. Can’t wait till he is on the go again. Soon and very Soon. God bless you.
