The "Vicar of Baghdad."

'The Reverend Canon Andrew White (born 1964) is vicar of St George's Church, Baghdad, the only Anglican church in Iraq. He has thus been dubbed the "Vicar of Baghdad". He is also President of the Foundation for Relief and Reconciliation in the Middle East. He was previously Director of International Ministry at the International Centre for Reconciliation at Coventry Cathedral, England. At the age of 33 years he was diagnosed with multiple schlerosis, a condition which for many years affected his mobility and his speech. In March 2011 on a visit to America, he was healed supernaturally of many of the effects of M.S. at Bethel Church, in Redding, California USA.' (Wiki.)
Furthermore, he was on Radio Humberside this morning talking about the revolutionary stem cell treatment which he has now had to deal with his condition. For ethical reasons he had refused any such which came from aborted foetuses. It appears that he was the first to receive stem cells from his own blood!
Please pray for this mighty man's continued improvement.
