Pray for Matt!

The Chandlers

Matt Chandler is the pastor of The Village Church in the Dallas area. On Thanksgiving day this year he had a seizure and found out that he has brain cancer. He is only 35 years old with a wife and three kids. My friend Britni and her husband Wade use to go to his church and I had the opportunity to go with them one Sunday. Since that time the church has really grown and God has been using Matt in an incredible way. When I first heard about this my heart just broke for him and his family. I can't imagine what they are going through, but I also know that the we serve a BIG God and nothing is impossible with HIM!

I started following Matt's blog soon after I heard about the cancer. Reading about his faith and strength during this difficult time has blessed me so much. He regularly posts videos and updates of how he is doing. Please join me in praying for Matt and his family as they walk this road.

Below is a list of prayer requests off of Matt's blog that he wants prayer for:
