I am so sorry to hear that the levels have not gone down much and of the pneumonia. You are constantly on my heart and in my prayers. May you have a blessed birthday.
Keep your spirit up, because we all know God is in control!

Rick,

You have always been such and encouragement to me with your worship of our great God. I am so sorry to hear about what is going on with you and will be praying for you and your family.
And, since you have always inspired me with music - Jeremy Camp's Walk by Faith:

Will I believe you when you say, your hand will guide my every way. Will I receive the words you say, every moment of every day. I will walk by faith even when I cannot see, because this broken road prepares your will for me.

Help me rid my endless fears, you've been so faithful for all my years with one breath you made me new, your grace covers all I do. I will walk by faith even when I cannot see, because this broken road prepares your will for me.

Well I'm broken BUT I still see your face. Well you've spoken pouring your words of grace. I will walk by faith even when I cannot see, because this broken road prepares your will for me.

Hallelujah.

You will be in my prayers.

Michelle Lane

Hi, Rick!
Happy Birthday!! We are praying for you and can not wait to see and hear you back at MLC. Please know that we all love you and are confident that you will be feeling better very soon. Keep those nurses laughing!
The Scales Family

Rick,
I just wanted to say that our family is thinking of you. We are so sorry to hear about the lukemia but want to encourage you and let you know that we have had several people that we know go through what you are going through and they have now passed the test and continue to live on -strong and healthy again! God truly does heal!
Despite the illness, please have a happy, blessed birthday and look forward to having so many more to come!
I also wanted to tell you that my cousin had visited our church back in the early part of the year and was so amazed by the music and your singing talent - she was stunned! She had never known that church could be so wonderful and fun! She even went on to say recently that she STILL couldn't find a church in her home town that had anyone as talented and truly gifted! She was really touched by the music and the service. I'm sure that you have heard that you have made an impact on people's lives, but please know that your musical gift touched someone who couldn't be touched and though they don't live around here, it was a step in opening their hearts to God - thank you!!!
You are in our hearts and prayers, please get well soon!
Aimee, Fred, Kayla, Emily & Abby Brown

Dear Rick,

Our family is praying for you. We all miss you at church and pray that God will heal your body. We know that He is in control and He is with you at every moment. We also pray for strength for your family and fiance as they stay with you.

As I read through a devotion before school this morning, I thought of you. Deuteronomy 31:6 says "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.

We can't wait to hear your awesome voice in church again. But until then, rest and get well. We will continue to pray that you gain strength. We love you and if there is any thing we can do for you, please let us know.

Hey hon! I know a lot has happened in both of our lives since the last time we saw each other but when I heard what was going on with you, my heart sank. First of all I had no idea you were living in Atlanta... OMG so am I! Heath got stationed at NAS Atlanta last May. We actually live in Kennesaw, but we're still a part of the "Atlanta-Metro Area." So I am so sorry that I haven't been to hear you sing at your church. When you are well we are definately gonna come see you. I just wanted to let you know that we are praying for you and we have our church friends and neighbors all praying too. I hope you get to feeling better soon.

Love in Christ,
The Gifford Family

PS - Congratulations on your engagement!

Hey Rick!
I wanted you to know that we are praying for you and look forward to seeing and hearing from you. Keep the good attitude and put all your trust in the Lord. Keep your positive mindset and Be Strong Brother. Happy Birthday and know that you are in our constant thoughts. God has Big Plans for you so get ready. Hang Tough

Happy Birthday, Ricky! We love you, and we continue to lift you up in our prayers.
Thomas, Shelby, Dylan & Jagger

Rick,

Scott Ard informed me of this website the other day, but I am just now getting around to seeing it. I just wanted to let you know that you are in my prayers and that I know God works in miraculous ways, so always have faith and never quit trusting in HIM. I feel like I need to tell you who I am, but I don't know if you will remember me, but just know that I am a good friend of Scott's. I see that you have gotten engaged, and for that I want to say Congratulations!!!! Please take care, laugh a lot, and remember to have lots of faith. I hope you have a great day and I will continue to keep you in my prayers!

Love,
Marandy Robinson

*HAPPY**BIRTHDAY* Rick!! I'm sorry to hear that it didn't turn out as well as we'd all hoped. You are always in our thoughts and prayers. We miss your amazing voice, and your smiling face. You have touched more lives than you'll ever know.

hey ricky! happy birthday! do you want me to sing the song again? just let me know if you do. i think you do. HEY RICKY YOU'RE SO FINE, YOU'RE SO FINE YOU BLOW MY MIND, HEY RICKY! ok, that's enough. don't make me sing it again on here, people are going to get sick of it! i will talk to lanny about getting a recording of that on this site so that you can listen whenever you want. yeah, that would be good for everyone! seriously though, i have a quote for you, you know how i like quotes. actually you might not know that. i like quotes. ok here it is:

"When everything in our lives and experience is shaken that can be shaken and only that which cannot be shaken remains, we are brought to see that God only is our rock and our foundation, and we learn to have our expectation from Him alone."
~Catherine Miller

so there you go! praying for you!

k

all the cool things have already been said!! so...i won't repeat it all. i will say happy birthday and i promise all your stuff in your room will be back the way it was and i'll have all my stuff out of it by the time you come home (to my brother's house where you live...i felt the need for clarity.) i'm missing my sunday afternoon third wheel status...so...you and suzanne hurry up and come hang out with me! lots of love and prayers!! ~courtney

Hey Rick,

Take it easy and stay strong. God has complete control.

Rick,

Hey brother, I am sorry to hear today was not to great. However, God is so big and we both know that he has his hand on this situation. I am hoping to get out of Orlando soon and come see you. Stay strong my friend. I love you Rick and I am praying for you. Good to hear about your engagement. Congrats on being officially engaged and another year older. See you soon buddy!

Hi Rick,
I'm sorry to hear that you are ill. I know that the Good Lord will watch over you and hold you in His arms. Not a good way to spend your birthday, in the hospital, but know that those of us who know and love you are praying for you.

Donna

Friend, Clark and I talked about you a good bit yesterday since it was your birthday. Thinking of you reminds us of what is truly deserving of our attention-- namely, the people we love. You are so loved, and the reports of your joy in the midst of pain carry such powerful reminder. We are praying that His joy will be your strength today. We love you very much!
Salina

Hey Rick:
Happy Birthday!! Hope you are feeling better today. We are praying for you at home, church and our growth group. We miss you terribly, your energy, your voice, your spirit. Get well soon.
Danielle & Colton Bugay

Rick,

I prayed for you this morning and many people from Stonecreek Church continue to pray for you. We lifted you up in prayer at our staff meeting.

Tommy Politz

Rick,

Happy Birthday bro! I can't text message you, so I wanted you to know me and Katie are praying for you daily. We know you will beat this thing because we've seen your strength and faith shine through everything you do. You truly make everyone feel important, so now it's our turn to lift you up! You better get well so we can go on our couples ski trip after we all get married! We miss you brother. God bless and get well soon-

Brock and Katie

Rick, I just wanted to tell you that I'm praying for you. There have been about 30 comments on this page telling you Happy Birthday, so I assume today is the big day. So...Happy Birthday! Thank you for all that you do for so many people.--Ben Crawshaw

Rick,
I'm praying for you buddy.

Heath

Rick,
Our thoughts are constantly with you- you inspire us beyond
words. Keep fighting buddy- we love you.

Love,
Steph and Tim O'Connor

I heard John Piper say once that he was preacing a message on the holiness of God. He had no idea the impact that it would have on the young couple that had just lost their very young daughter. After the services they came up to Piper and said thanks for going through this series. We took our eyes off of our circumstance and put our eyes on the holiness of God. Rick God works ALL things to the good of those who love him and are called according to His purpose. If you love him and are called, he is working your good. It may not seem that way but I promise he is. (PSALM 92) Lord give Rick joy in the mornings like moses prayed

Hey Rick,
I love those recent pictures of you and Suzanne and your engagement. Lots to look forward to. Praying for those around you who love you. I'm praying for your strength and hope and theirs... Suzanne, Elaine, Billy, Candi, Jonathan, Haley... praying for you. susanne fatigati

Hi Rick and family, I am sittig here weeping with joy that you Rick, have made it through the night. The Lord has seen fit to to allow another day for our skilled doctors and our prayers to work toward your complete recovery. God loves you and I love you. Jack Martin, Lakeland FL

Rick Pearson and Family,
Just want you to know that First Baptist Church in Bainbridge, Ga and Climax Baptist Church in Climax, Ga. have had you all in our prayers all week and will continue doing so. I am Janet Holk's mother. The Holk's have told me so much about you all that I feel like I know you personally.

Dear Ricky,
You'll never know what a blessing you are to me personally! I've gained a new appreciation for my life and health. I'm praying and believing God that you'll live and that I'll be able to get soem scriptures to you on CD about healing.

I love you alot man. I'm still claiming the vers taht says, "I shall not die but live and declare the works of the Lord.

Remeber this song?

Just to be close to You,
Just to be close to You,
Just to be close to You is my desire!

Just to be close to You Just to be clsoe to You,
Just to be close to You is my desire!

Please I ask that one of you in Rick's family if you haven't done so, will sing this to him and see what happens such as, see if he starts singing with you or praising God in tongues or soemthing like that and let me know with a post. At lesat let me know you sing the song to him even if there is no response. Thanks. I lvoe all of you and am praying for you.

I learned of Rick's condition this weekend. Needless to say, no words adequately express the confusion and distress I first felt. While God's touch sometimes seems distant and faint...His presence and power are real an incomparable and through the weekend, I am overwhelmed with the hope of God raising Rick as an awesome trophy to His grace and love. I praise God for the blessing of another day and the hope that we all feel.

Mine, and my families (Lori, Caleb and Sammy) are with Rick and with all who share the joy of knowing Rick and worshiping with Rick. As devastating as Rick's illness is, God is bigger and I am praying for Him to heal. I look forward to standing in the audience and singing (OK lip syncing) along with Rick in worship.

Rick, thank you for demonstrating and having the heart of a servant.

Jeff Gore

Just a short note to let you know that you are being prayed for every day in Italy. Get better soon Rick! God will see you through.

Rick, I'm more hopeful each day that God looks over you and keeps you here with us. There is no doubt His Will is to keep you here. He will have big plans for you when you are up and about. I pray for you each day as is everyone who knows you. We look forward to having you lead us in worship back in Church soon. God Bless...Cheryl

For Rick and His Loved Ones...
We have prayerfully been following this time of trial you are presently experiencing.

From the numerous updates lovingly posted by Shannon and Jeff, and too, all the posts from so many concerned folks...there is no doubt a host of dedicated and hope filled prayers being lifted up to Him on your behalf.

As we ready ourselves to attend tonight's Married Life Live, our thoughts and prayers are focussed on you...and especially this evening as the Worship Team sings and plays of His Glory, there is no doubt that most there will be joined in prayer for your recovery.

David & Debbie

Rick,

I'm so glad you made it through the night. Just wanted you to know that me, my family, and my church family are all praying for you and your family.

Freedom

To Rick & his family,My heart is so burdened for all of you at this time.I do know that Rick is in the best hands...God's hands. I am a cancer survivor of twenty-two years, and I too understand how precious each new day is! I also know that God can fill all of you with new hope and that His strength will see you through the darkness and fears. My family and I attend Mountain Lake Church and feel a special closness to Rick. As I walked through my illness, I now know, that God always had His hand on me.I will continue to pray that not only does He keep his hands on Rick, but also his loving,trusting family. Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for the good of those who love the Lord, and are called according to HIS purpose. Praise the Lord!!! Blessings to all of you. Vicki Petree `

Hi to Suzanne & Rick and family, Just wanted you to know that Daphne United Methodist is praying for God's healing hand on Rick's body. I have never met Rick or his family, but have heard his name for a couple of years from Barbie and Diane. What a wonderful, Godly couple. You are touching soooo many people with your faith!!!! God will have all the Glory! If we could see your foot prints down the hall of the hospital right now, I know we would only see one, because God is caring you right now! He will NEVER leave you or forsake you!!! We love you and are praying for you and your families!!
Love in Christ,
Stephanie

Candi,

You don't know me but my family has enjoyed your gift of music at NPCC for a few years now. We have close friends who know Rick from Mtn. Lake. Our family had an experience 5 yrs. ago with our son that placed us in that same space you are in.When one is focused on God as you & your family are, you are truly walking on Holy Ground...you are in a different plane of existence than you've ever been...and it is God's grace carrying you. You are so right that you have many things to thank God for. Many have witnessed God being glorified through Rick's illness, as you described those drawn to him for reasons inexplainable to them. We know the power of the Holy Spirit that is unsurpassed by any other. So, even though this is a dark time for your family, you are abiding under the shadow of the Almighty (Ps. 91:1), exactly where you need to be. I join the thousands who are praying for Rick's restoration, and I know you feel and have already seen the results of intercessory prayer. Love, Kim Hays

Rick,

You and your family have been in my thoughts all day since I came home from North Point ..... we haven't met, but I have heard you and Candi sing at NPCC. Wow at all the prayers, love, and support .... it is so awesome .... God is so awesome! You will be in our thoughts and prayers also and will keep updated to your progress. Leah

Dear Rick and family,
We had a move of God at church tonight! The service started out somewhat ordinary. But then the choir started singing a song called, "He Made the difference." It's not really the kind of song you'd think of as a song that necessarily would make you want to shout, altough it's a good fun song, and we all like it, including me. It's a song that has some soul to it if you know what I mean.

Anyway, we started singing it. The first time we sang it, nothing unusual happened. But then as sometimes is the case, Pastor asked us to sing it again. This song has some really high tennor notes. I was already kind of hoarse (ma-a-ay), just wanted to be funy and make you all laugh. Besides being hoarse I had no mints or anything in my pocket for my throat to help me sing.

So when he said to sing it again, I was like, "Oh no." But then when we started to sing part of it again, I don't think it was five seconds into the song when suddenly the powr of God hit like lightening!!!!!!!

Two ladies in the choir began shouting to the top of thier lungs. It's been a long time since I've heard anyone in our church shout like that. Suddenly the power of God hit everyone. People in the worship team began shouting like that and speaking in tongues and people in the congregation started doing it too.

Up until that point I was as dry as a desert, but when the power of God hit, it rolled all over me too!!!!!!!

Pastor had asked a guest speaker to preach. If he hadn't have asked him to preach, I don't think Pastor would have preached!

You should hvae heard the guest speaker's sermon. It would have been right down your alleys. He spoke from Ezekiel on the scripture that says, "the hand of the Lord was upon me there." He really emphasized the word there. He said that no matter what your situation, the hand of the Lord is upon you there!

Also, as the power of God was moving like a Niagra falls, I thought about Ricky and prayed that he would feel the same thing we were feeling. A man who is in the choir told me after I told him that, that he was thnking the same thing, that Ricky was probably getting healed!

Also, I believe another confirmaiton of Rick's healing is that our new youth pastor said in his dismisal prayer the words, "Just to be close to You!"

I am so glad to hear things are at least heading in a positive direction. It is great to know specifics.

My daughter went to Spin (Mountain Lakes middle and high school ministry) last night. They played some of Rick's music. She said it was great but everyone was really sad for a little while. She checks this website every day to check on Rick.

This website was such a great idea. I am glad it is uplifting for the family and cannot wait for Rick to read them all.

Take care and as always, let me (us) know if there is anyting I (we) can do.

Robin Smith

Hallellujah that he has had a restful day. Still praying and very hopeful God's Will is for a complete recovery. Hang in there!!

Just a note that we are traveling to the country of Turkey for a mission trip. We will continue to pray for Rick as we travel and while we are gone. Please tell him that many people here in Ft. Lauderdale continue to lift him up to our Lord.

much love, Tim and Gail (Kacie's parents)

Rick and Family,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. We pray that God's will be done in every aspect of your lives as you know it will.
We love you all,
Marilyn and Royce Ward
Walnut Hill, Fl.

Rick,
Just wanted to take a minute to let you know that we are Praying hard in Bratt for you.
Mike

Hi Rick, Thanks be to God for giving us another day with you. For this I am encouraged! I continue to pray each day to our Lord for your recovery. My church congregation here in FL. is also praying on your behalf. God loves yuu and I love you. Jack Martin, Lakeland FL.

Hey,
I'm so glad to hear that you were able to go in and see Ricky. Praise God that he opened his eyes alittle and got a higher heart rate when y'all talked to him. I'm praying with you. We've sent the scripture CD for you. Ya'll can hear it to increase your faith even if Ricky can't listen to it yet for being in ICU. Have a graet day! What a change!!!!!!! Jesus made the change!

Oh, Elaine, Sister Patty Helton said she saw y'all and you said you really loveed me. Thanks. That was sweet of you.

Ricky, God is so good. You are always on my mind and in my prayers. You are a true inspiration for everyone. You showed students, faculty, and staff what a Christian should be while in high school. Your life since then has been a wonderful example of God's mercy and goodness. Kelly said to tell you hi, and that she hopes and prays for your recovery.

Dear Rick,
my name is Erin Cornett and I live in Savannah, Ga.
I am 15 years old and this past summer was my third summer at Bigstuf. You and Candy made a huge interruption {a good one!} in my life last year and I just wanted you to know that ya'll are a big part of the reason that I am a christian.
I love to sing and I actually go to a school that helps me inprove my voice, and seeing you up on that stage and being so passionate about what you do, made me want to glorify God even more and share that with everyone, so hopefully, in a few years, I'll be on that stage at Bigstuf.
I have been praying for you and your family and I hope that you get well soon. You have made such a big change in my life and many others and I know we are all praying for you. I cant wait to see you back on your feet, and I hope you never forget that God is in control of your life and he will pull you through if it is HIS will.

I am in Coach Josh Davis' 6 period class & i am praying for you. I hope you get well soon.

Dear Barbie and Suzanne,
I love you and miss you! So many people are praying for Rick.
Henry

Rick,

Always keep focused on the prize. Our son is now 5 and a half years from diagnosis, he plays guitar also. We feel your pain. God bless you all and keep you strong.

Blessed be the name of the LORD... It was you singing that song the 1st time that I ever heard it. I fell in love with it and everything that it ment. Sooo... I found the CD and I can't help but think of you when I hear it. Rick, you and your family are living that song right now. My prayers are with your family, I'm a mother and I can only imagine her pain as she puts her sweet baby boy in Gods hands. Mrs. Pearson... My prayers are that God puts his arms around you and lets you know his love. You are all thought of often. Blessed be the name of the Lord...
Brenda

Rick,
We love you and are praying for you. I just wanted you to know that you are on the prayer list at the First Baptist Church in Alpharetta,where I grew up.
We miss you so much at church!!!! We know that God is in control and in the name of Jesus that you will be healed.
We want Rick's family to know that we are praying for God to give you comfort and strength
in these days of great worry and need. He will be with you, hold you up and see you through this.
WE will be in prayer,
love,
Brad, Wendi, Taylor, Cayden

Hi Rick. My name is Holly. You dont know me but I am in Coach Josh Davis's Bible class at Faith Academy. He told us you were sick and asked us to pray for you, and Ijust want you to know that I am. Get well soon.
God bless!
Holly

Rick,Iam in coach Davis`Bible class.
Iam praying for you!!! My grandfather had cancer.
But I hope you get better. Were all praying for
you.Get well soon.

My sweet little Rick, running through my house, wrestling with Josh and Jared, playing with Sara Beth, and so very much a part of this family. Tears fill my eyes with each memory of your sweet disposition as I see you in my heart laughing at Josh or Jared, something you did all the time. You guys were cousins and that made you especially close. (not real close in kin) but close in heart and love for each other. It was always obvious. You three never let go of each other and that is so priceless especially to Josh right now.

Rick, We are so very heartfelt sorry that you are sick. Elaine, Billy, candice,Haley and Suzanne, I know that there are no words to say that can help, as you watch over sweet Rick, your baby boy, and your brother but somehow I was just praying that you would sense in this email that we truly care and hurt deeply for all of you.

We serve an awesome God who is faithful in all His ways. We are holding the ropes for you. Don is opening the church for prayer and fasting this week for Rick.

Love you much,

Sara Davis

Rick and Family,
Just a note from Bratt to let you know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. God takes care of his children so I know he will take care of you. God Bless You All.

Dear Rick,

I sent you a note...not sure if you got it. I didn't see it posted? Wanted to let you know that our family is praying for you and yours. We have been blessed by your incredible talent that you so freely give back to our Lord. Thank you and God bless you!

Rick, Sounds like you've had quite a day...I know your family must have been elated to have you respond to their voices. It is the small miracles like this that keep everyone's faith that it will be God's Will to keep you with us. Hang in there...we are all praying for you...Cheryl

Dear Billy, Elaine,Rick, Candi,& Haley

My thoughts and prayers are with you all. I can remember when Rick was a small child when I came into the family, and seeing him grow up, what a wonderful, sweet and caring young man he became. I know that all of the prayers that you are receiving will help fight this, and have you going strong again soon. I love yall, and Elaine if there is anything at all that we can do for you and the family, please let us know.

With all our thoughts and prayers,

Theresa, Malorie, Kaylee & Dawson Cox

Love and Prayers are in our hearts. God hears and answers our prayers.

Rick and Family, We continue to pray for Rick's strength so that he can start to get better. I also pray for the family to take care of themselves so that you are able to take care of Rick. It is so hard to leave him right now but remember that he so needs for each of you to also take care of yourselves. I can only imagine how tough this is on you all. Prayer will keep you going!

Thank you again for taking the time to put all of the updates on this site for us to read. It surely is helpful as we wish we could be there by your side to help you through this. I know the strongest imaginable person is right by your side though. Believe in Him!

Robin Smith from Mountain Lake Church loves you, Rick

Thank God the Bilirubin numbers are coming down! We'll keep praying!
