Andre " Growing in the knowledge of Christ"

Please pray for Dr. Tom he still is waiting to have a hip operation. It has been drawn-out for 3 years now. Tom desperately needs to have his hip replaced, please pray that the operation will come, and that all resources needed, will be supplied. Also Tom is living with his friend Andre. I have known Andre for about 6 years. He was one of the guys who would hang out with a group of homeless guys at the University Metro. Andre would usually show up at our outdoor meetings under the influence of alcohol. Andre was never interested in the gospel. He was one of the few that did not responded to Christ. Fast forward 6 years and Tom moved in with him. So we started meeting once a week for a Bible study. Andre would join in and listen and he started responding to the Good News. Andre one night last December left the house to join up with one of his friends for a night of drinking that resulted in Andre severely breaking his femur bone. A metal rod put in his leg. It has left him for about 6 months confined to his bed. But the blessing of all this is we have seen Andre grow in the knowledge of Jesus Christ. He now understands the gospel. Both Tom and Andre are pretty confined to the house. Please pray for God's continual work in his life and the recovery of his leg.
