🙏 Please pray for our dear friend Ruth 🙏
Ruth is leaning on God as she fights Cancer. She has been diagnosed with multiple cancerous tumors — one pressing near her heart, another in her stomach, and several in her lymph nodes. This has been an alarming and sudden diagnosis, and yet, her faith in God remains unshaken.
She is a strong believer in Jesus Christ and trusts in His healing power. In this incredibly difficult season, she is asking first and foremost for your prayers — for healing, peace, and divine guidance.
In addition to spiritual support, she urgently needs financial assistance. Ruth is seeking treatment from natural and integrative doctors — options that are not covered by insurance, but which may offer hope for healing and a better quality of life. These treatments are expensive, and time is critical.
💜 Every dollar raised will go directly toward her medical expenses, including:
We are asking our community of faith, family, and friends to stand in the gap with her — to give what you can, to share this campaign, and most of all, to lift her up in prayer.
Thank you for being part of her support system. Together, we can be the hands and feet of Christ in Ruth's life.
With gratitude and hope,
Ruth's Fan Club...We LOVE you!!!!
Prayers for you Ruth—I know you and God can beat this!!
Dear Ruth, You are in our prayers for healing, peace and God's comfort.
Praying for you Ruthie! The Lord hears and your faith will get you through this.
I’m praying that you would be quickly and completely healed, Ruth. “I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit” (Eph. 3) and as you face the unimaginable, trust that Jesus is at home in your heart, you are the apple of His eye and He will never leave you.
Found out you needed some help through Serina. Blessings and paying for you.
Love you Ruth!! Thinking of you and praying for you daily! Psalm 46:5
Stay strong in your faith.

Sweet Ruth—love and prayers from Encinitas! You are the strongest!!!
Sending love and healing prayers.
I love you Ruth and I pray God’s healing hand on your life. You are God’s precious child and He is holding in His loving arm. My prayers are going up for you daily.
Praying for you as often as I can, we love you 🙏🏻🤍🫶🏻

From Ruth:
Y'all I woke up feeling waaayyy better today!!! I just finished some more grilled cheese 😅 I will stop eventually, I promise. The pain is way down, and I have so much more energy.
I got up and walked in the sunshine some, which felt AMAZING. Thank you all for helping me with so many things. That's taken an invisible weight off of me!!
God had me up in the middle of the night proclaiming truth and healing over my body, speaking out belief in who HE is, and as I was Jericho marching around my room, I physically felt my body change. 😭 Pain went down almost immediately, has bubbles were moving and shaking, and I went back to bed with so much more rest.
My plan is to continue to remain silent, to keep off my phone as much as possible, and pray over these next avenues of healing. He is working miracles through it ALL. 🤍 Psalm 23 floods my heart and mind, as well as Romans 12, especially verse 1. 🤍 Staying on the alter, while simultaneously wrestling with the Lord and clinging to the hem of His garment.
He is the same Healer he was when he was physically here, and my hope is increasingly in that! He rose the dead to life, sick to well, lame to stand (I plan to DANCE!), blind to see, and on and on and on and on. 🤍🤟🏼🦅 He is rebuilding me through all of this, a new creation, and I cannot WAIT to LIGHT IT UP like never before. He's doing so much more than we see. 🤍🤍🤍🤍 Ephesians 3:20-21C
"Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen."

We are waiting for results from Monday's biopsy which we hope to receive by Thursday. Ruth is struggling with anxious thoughts at night and continued pain. Please continue to pray for our Ruthie as she receives her results and a specific plan of action is presented. She knows we all support her on whatever choices she makes for her body and that we are an army of prayer warriors right behind her.
If you choose to reach out directly to Ruth, please send scripture that makes you think of Ruth and/or fun photos, memes or stories you would like to share. Even through the pain Ruth still very much has her sense of humor and any reason to smile and give her mind a break is appreciated.

Finished biopsy at 2pm. Went super well (Ruth’s words ❤️) She now has 3 hours of bed rest but is really happy she can eat and drink again. They are monitoring her and if she is doing well she will go home this evening. She wants to thank everyone for the thousands of prayers. I will continue to update as I get more information.

Give the doctors wisdom and give them the words to deliver the news with clarity for us to understand
Give ears to listen and the understanding to discern their words
Give Ruth the wisdom to make the best decision
Give Ruth strength encouragement and comfort and that she continually feels the presence of God throughout
Give Ruth relief from the pain
We are praying for healing through miracles and for healing through the treatments and procedures
Give us much more time with Ruth before she is taken from us

Hello Friends and Family,
Ruth has been in the hospital since July 3rd and there are some recent developments.
The oncologist came in and reviewed the CT images and the cancer has spread and it’s in stage 4. There is serious concerns for the mass near her heart and the encapsulation of “the greater vessels. The pressure on those could lead to bleeding.
The decision has been made to get another biopsy as the one from Montana was not sufficient. They will take the biopsy from the liver to confirm the type of cancer and then put together a plan for treatment. The biopsy will be reviewed and may go in front of an oncology board Thursday or may get escalated for sooner.
They would like her to stay in the hospital till Monday. I will update more as I have the information.
