Packed And Ready To Go


Well, this will be our last night at home for a week or so. Everybody at church has been such a blessing today. We've got our bags packed and ready to head to the hospital around 6:00 a.m. or so. As we were putting Katie to bed tonight the reality began to set in that tomorrow begins a rough journey for her. The fear of the "unknown" was evident in her tears. We talked and prayed with her as we assured her of the presence and power of the Lord in her life. And with a kiss good night, she was asleep within no time.

Thanks to everyone for the love and support as we have come up to this point. We know the prayers will keep going up, and we thank you all for that too. It's going to be a rough week physically, mentally, and emotionally, but I believe it will be an immense spiritual time for us as well. We know the Lord will be with us every step of this journey. Our daily prayer will be, "Lord, stay close to us!" And we know He will!

I've got the laptop packed with all the picture processing software loaded so that we can post some pictures during our stay.

Until then...

Just want you to know that you are in our thoughts and prayers down here in Florida. Tell Katie... Miss Williams/Mrs. Jackson said hi and that we are praying for her.

We have definitely been praying for Katie and your whole family. Katie is on our prayer list at Bible Baptist Church here in Highland, Indiana, and we had special prayer for her in our services tonite. Sandra, your family has been so special to me and I feel right along with you guys. Love you all!
