“Please pray and pass this on to prayer warriors that you know! Ginny’s father (Ray Payne) is diabetic and recently diagnosed with multiple myaloma and is in his first course of chemo. He was taken to the hospital by ambulance today for possible dehydration and extreme pain. He is now possibly with meningitis, he is unresponsive and his kidneys have shut down. He has faithfully served the Lord Jesus for about 50 years as a Pastor and a Police Chaplain and now needs us to intercede for him.
God bless you, Ray Payne. You have served the Lord.

So sorry to hear about Ray. We love them so much and gain so much strength from their ministry at Parents Retreat at COPS. You are all in our prayers.
Ray, out thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. You are truly an inspiration to everyone you’ve met over these many years. I had the pleasure at one of Ed’s gatherings in Schroon Lake.
Ray, our prayers are with you – hope you recover soon and completely. Thoroughly enjoyed meeting you at our last Schroon Lake gathering. Your calendars with “Only One Son” message are prominent in my office and on the dashboard of my car.
