I got this message from one of the members of Grace Missionary Baptist Church in Hazard, KY. Brother Fred Minks is the former Pastor there and until recently has been an active member there. Bro. Fred is the brother of Brother Oscar Mink. I believe he is about 93 years old now. I will try to call Brother Fred's family today and get more information.

"I would like to ask you to pray for Brother Fred. He has been very sick as of late, and he goes to the doctor today, and he feels it is serious. Not sure what it was, but it was something to do with his leg and foot. He may end up in the hospital."

No update yet Brother Jimmy. I have sent messages to his daughter. She normally replies fairly quickly to my messages. But nothing so far. I sent a message this morning to the church member who first contacted me. I should hear from him today.

I was finally able to get a hold of Bro. Fred's daughter Brenda today. Bro. Fred lives with Brenda and so she was at the hospital with him and I could not get a hold of her before today.

Sister Brenda Minks said her dad Brother Fred Minks was in the hospital for two days. He had cellulitis on one of his legs. The doctor started him on some heavy antibiotics. They also found that his kidney function was at 20%. After the two day stay in the hospital he was doing much better and the doctor sent him home. Sister Brenda said Brother Fred was much better today and able to rest well at home.

Sister Brenda Minks said to thank everyone for your prayers for Brother Fred.
