Part of God's Family

We know that literally hundreds of people are thinking about Andrea daily and many of you have been praying for her healing and comfort while she is in the hospital. We are completely overwhelmed by the support we have received.

Each of the time slots on the Prayer calendar was filled (many by more than 1 person). That’s 168 hours of continuous prayer!!! We have also heard from many people who were not on the prayer calendar that they have been praying for Andrea daily - people from 5 continents (North America, Europe, South America, Asia, Africa), and 20 countries; Canada (British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario), the United States (Oregon, California, South Dakota, Texas, Hawaii, Michigan, North Carolina, Indiana, Ohio), Czech Republic, Austria, Germany, France, England, Ireland, Scotland, Italy, Russia, United Arab Emirates, Israel, India, Japan, New Zealand, South Africa, Uganda, Argentina. Thank you for praying!

When we decided to do this 24/7 prayer calendar we prayed that this would be a time of blessing for those who prayed and God would touch many lives. It has been encouraging to hear how God has spoken to many of you.

We anticipate that Andrea will come home on Monday. We look forward to that reunion!!! We are meeting with her doctor tomorrow morning. We have been told that he will give us the results of Andrea’s full body scan and discuss her follow-up treatment plan. We usually leave many of our meetings with more questions than we went in with. Hopefully after Friday we will have a better understanding of what her treatment plan will be.

Praise God! While we are tempted to ask the "why" - I was reminded last week - that we need to rest in the "Who". It is evident that God has been sustaining you and He has a greater purpose than we can imagine in all of this. We will continue to trust Him for that and for Andrea's healing.

Praise God for answers to prayer, and we will continue to lift Andrea up to God in the days and weeks to come. It is so encouraging to know that people all around the world can unite and pray for one another, sharing one anothers burdens. "Keep On Keeping On."
