Here is Pastor Malone's present heart condition:
2 month ago Pastor Malone had congestive heart failure. His heart is week and enlarged. Thank God the cardiologist was able to place a new pacemaker with defibrillator and an extra lead. Although Pastor Malone can't drive for 6 months, he is slowly regaining his strength by exercising and eating low sodium foods. Thank you for your prayers for a healthy heart and speedy recovery.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. (2Th. 3:18)
