Seeking opportunities to serve! If you know of someone who needs assistance, please inform Cindi Cesone or Dennis Cesone.

Sean Blake of Rockville, MD

In response to a desperate call for help, Mark Lowenstein and Dennis Cesone visited a family in Rockville, MD on Saturday, October 20. A few months ago, Mr. Sean Blake ruptured his esophagus - a life-threatening situation. He has been on extended bed rest and is completely dependent on liquid medicine for nourishment since August, 2007. He will remain on this liquid diet at least until mid-December when he will be examined again to ensure complete recovery.

Each bottle of liquid diet lasts about 1-1/2 days and costs $250.00. Unfortunately, it is not covered by their health insurance. Sean's wife, Mrs. Larisa Arabayeva, quit her job to remain home and care for Sean and one of their two young children, Daniella.

The high medical bills has made it difficult for them to put food on the table. In order to ensure that her child could eat, Larisa has been sacrificing her own meals.

Larisa contacted as many churches as she could in search for assistance. So far, only two have responded. FXCC purchased two bottles of medicine for Sean which will last for the remainder of October.

Please prayerfully consider how you may assist them. This is a wonderful way to offer love, charity, and support on behalf of Christ Jesus. They appreciate all the encouragement and support we can give to them.

"Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others."
Philippians 2:4
