Fellow students with cancer; classmate into wiccan

I've got a little catalog of requests here, so please bear with me.

Please remember one of the staff writers on my college's newspaper staff; she has breast cancer.

Also pray for one of my friend's residents in her dorm; she has cancer in her hip, I believe.

Finally, one of the newspaper staff writers (who has started coming to our church with his family) is into wiccan and calls himself a witch. He submitted an article to me about how wiccans are peaceful pagans and that he doesn't worship the devil. Blah, blah, blah. Anyway, my friends and I are having trouble dealing with this, because he and his wiccan friends are trying to start a wiccan organization on-campus, which would be horrible, of course. (And we've made fun of them among ourselves, which wasn't good, and we've decided to stop it and start praying more). What's worse is that these people are lost and are so very far away from Jesus. Please pray for their souls and that my friends and I can be better witnesses to them. By the way, the staff writer is in church, and his dad is a preacher, so that's a good foundation for witnessing to him, at least.

Thanks, everyone.

I understand your dilemma. It breaks my heart when people are so close to the truth, yet turn away and follow the ways of darkness. What really did it for me was when my sister encountered a five-year-old boy in her class with a pentagram (is that what it's called?) necklace around his neck. His parents practiced wicca and were raising their little boy this way, so far from the truth. My sister tried to witness to him, but he simply said that he doesn't believe in Jesus and his parents don't either. :( It's so sad when someone so innocent and pure of heart should be deprived of the inheritence that the Lord prepared for him through the death and resurrection of His son...

I'll definately pray for you. I know all to well about wicca, but I'm not going to go into that. Anyway, I'm praying for you, good luck.
