Prayers (& more) for the Petty Family

Faithful, strong, kind-hearted, caring and hard working are just a few words that could be used to describe Sydney Petty.

To all that are blessed to know her, you know she is as amazing as they get. She’s a devoted wife to her amazing husband Joseph and an incredible mom to her son Zeke. She is a daughter, sister, aunt, pediatric ICU nurse practitioner and an incredible friend to so many. She would do anything for anyone and is always ready to give a helping hand or offer words of encouragement. To know Sydney is to truly love her.

Sydney and Joseph got married in 2020 and they were blessed to become pregnant in 2022. They welcomed their son Ezekiel (Zeke) on 9/24/2022 and it was the happiest day of their lives, but 4 days later, their joy quickly became shock and despair when Sydney was diagnosed with Lymphoma.

Last fall, Sydney underwent treatment, and then in Spring 2023 she had a bone marrow transplant. This past year has been extremely tough and filled with countless appointments, hard news and hospitalizations. In August of 2023, they finally heard the words that they had been hoping and praying for - Sydney was in remission!

Through the course of some recent complications over the past few months, Sydney has found out that the cancer is back and is extremely aggressive. She is currently receiving treatment and has a very long and strenuous road ahead. Despite the cancer, Sydney has continued to be an incredible mother to Zeke through it all.

Let’s rally around the Petty family (especially during this holiday season) and show them how loved they are by their family, friends, and the community that surrounds them. Any financial contributions received will go directly to any medical bills or needs that may arise.

Above all, please continue to pray fervently for Sydney. Pray that her body responds well and with ease to the treatment she is receiving. Pray for daily strength and peace throughout this journey.

Your kindness and support mean the world to Sydney, Joseph and Zeke. Thank you for your generosity and prayers!
