From Mary Ann Poplewski

To my church family, I appreciate your prayers on my behalf while I was so sick. Thank you very much for your prayers. God has blessed me and has healed me from Lyme disease. Praise God for His leading and guiding my physician to arrive at the correct diagnosis and begin treatment quickly. Because of this, it is believed that I will not have residual damage to any of my internal organs because of the Lyme disease. I am truly grateful for all of your prayers during this illness. Thank you all so very much. Sincerely, in Christ, Mary Ann Poplewski
