Dear friends and community,

Our beloved Pastor Arnel Larman has been urgently hospitalized after suffering from an aneurysm and hydrocephalus. Last night, he was rushed to the emergency room, and after undergoing an angiogram this afternoon, he was positively diagnosed with an aneurysm. Due to his critical condition, he requires several medical procedures and surgeries to prevent further complications, including a second aneurysm rupture and a VP shunt operation. There are also signs of vasospasm, which may require additional medical treatment.

These unexpected medical costs are overwhelming for him and his family. As a church community, we want to come together to support our pastor in this difficult time. Your generous donations will help cover his medical bills, surgeries, and the necessary treatments as he fights for recovery.

Every contribution, no matter how big or small, will make a difference. Let’s show our pastor the love and support he has always shown us.

Thank you for your prayers, support, and generosity during this challenging time.

With heartfelt gratitude,

International Baptist Church

Update on Pastor’s Health Journey:

Thank you to everyone for your continued prayers and support for Pastor Arnel Larman during this challenging time. We are grateful to share that his initial surgery last night was a success! The doctors are optimistic, and Pastor is stable.

However, Pastor will be undergoing a crucial operation today at 7 AM for the placement of a VP shunt, which is essential for his recovery. Please continue to keep him in your prayers as he undergoes this procedure.

As we navigate these medical challenges, we are still actively raising funds to help cover the mounting medical bills and expenses for his recovery. Any contribution, no matter the amount, is deeply appreciated and will go directly toward his care and rehabilitation.

Thank you for standing with us during this time. Your support means more than words can express.
