Welcome Biblos family. Thank you for joining me tonight. I please accept my

my apologies for not being my usual, abulient and happy self.

I wrestled with what to speak about tonight

and I don't believe I'm gonna speak long

because while coming to the studio,

I received word that one of my dearest friends,

Brother Ari Prado, has been rushed to the hospital.

Apparently, he's had a heart attack.

And it's not looking favorable for him right now and so to to come on and to do a podcast is nigh and to

impossible i thought about just foregoing it and doing something else.

First of all, prayer.

And I will request prayer.

As a matter of fact, I thought to myself,

what greater opportunity than to reach out right now to the Biblos family,

to those that are out there that understand the power that is in prayer,

and ask you to help me pray, pray for my friend,

pray for the great preacher that has blessed tens of thousands of people,

that has helped countless people, be edified, strength, and renewed that has planted

a powerful church in the San Francisco and the Bay Area.

And that has been a loyal compat compatriot,

fellow laborer in the kingdom of God.

He is a son of God.
